How does the eye control the amount of light entering it?

2 answers:

Answer:

the retina of the eye contains photoreceptor cells that detect the light intensity, whether it is dim or bright, changing shape of iris.

Explanation:

in dim light, the receptors detect the light intensity, and in order to allow us to see more clearly, the radial muscles in iris contract, making the pupil widen(dilate), so more light enters eye.

in case of bright light, he receptors detect the light intensity, and in order to allow us to see more clearly, the circular muscles in iris contract, making the pupil narrow(constrict), so less light enters eye

Erase all the trajectories, and fire the pumpkin vertically again with an initial speed of 14 m/s. As you found earlier, the max

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

$\theta=39.49^{\circ}$

Explanation:

Maximum height of the pumpkin, $H_{max}=9.99\ m$

Initial speed, v = 22 m/s

We need to find the angle with which the pumpkin is fired. the maximum height of the projectile is given by :

$H_{max}=\dfrac{v^2\ sin^2\theta}{2g}$

On rearranging the above equation, to find the angle as :

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{\sqrt{2gH_{max}}}{v})$

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 9.99}}{22})$

$\theta=39.49^{\circ}$

So, the angle with which the pumpkin is fired is 39.49 degrees. Hence, this is the required solution.

A current of 15.0 A flows through an electric heater operating on 120 V. Compute the power consumption of the electric heater.

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

There will be 1800 W power consumption in heater

Explanation:

We have given current flowing in the heater I = 15 A

Voltage on which heater is operating V = 120 volt

We have to find the power consumption in the heater

We know that power consumption is given by P = VI

So power consumption in heater = 120 × 15 = 1800 W

So there will be 1800 W power consumption in heater

The force of gravity on Jupiter is much stronger than the force of gravity on earth what is the answer?

Pachacha [2.7K]

This would be true. On Jupiter you would weigh 234 pounds if you were 100 pounds on Earth.
