What is the function of the lens of an eye?

Physics

Answer:

to focus the light onto the retina

Explanation:

The "eye" has many<em> anatomical parts</em>. One of which is the "lens," which is a transparent structure located behind the "iris"<em> </em><em>(the part of the eye with color). </em><u>It allows light rays to be focused unto the retina</u><em> (located at the back of the eye). </em>Upon changing its shape, it allows the eye to see images clearly.

The lens deteriorates over time as the person ages. It can be replaced by surgery<em> (Lens Replacement Surgery)</em>. This is common for people with "cataract," a condition when the lens becomes<em> opaque</em>.

What distance separates Earth and the Sun? A 300,000 km per second B Eight light-minutes C 149 million light-seconds D One light
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

B Eight light-minutes

Explanation:

In the case when the distance separated earth and the sun so here we orbit the sun for a 150 million km distance and the light moves would be 300,000 kilometers per second

Now divide this

= 150 million ÷ 300,000 kilometers per second

= 500 seconds

This 500 seconds represent 8 minutes and 20 seconds

Hence, option B is correct

Car A rear ends Car B, which has twice the mass of A, on an icy road at a speed low enough so that the collision is essentially
puteri [66]

Answer:

Vb = v/2

Half of the speed of Car A before the collision

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by using conservation of momentum.

m_{A}*v_{A1} + m_{B}*v_{B1} = m_{A}*v_{A2} + m_{B}*v_{B2}

Since car B was stopped before the collision and its mass is twice the mass of A:

v_{B1} = 0\\m_{B} = 2*m_{A}

Also, since it is an elastic collision, car A stops after hitting car B. Rewriting the equation:

m_{A}*v_{A1} + 2m_{A}*0 = m_{A}*0 + 2m_{A}*v_{B2}\\m_{A}*v_{A1} = 2m_{A}*v_{B2}\\v_{B2}=\frac{v_{A1}}{2}

Therefore, the speed of car B after the collision is half of the speed of car A before the collision (v)

Vb = v/2
