Since rods are about 1000 times more sensitive than cones (at 470 nm), they should be able to detect smaller values of the elect

ric field. Assuming rods and cones are sensitive to the average energy density of an electromagnetic wave, which of the following statements is the most accurate?a. Rods are about 1000 times more sensitive than cones.b. Rods are about 3 times more sensitive than cones.c. Rods and cones are about equally sensitive.d. Cones are about 3 times more sensitive than rods.e. Cones are about 1000 times more sensitive than rods.

Answer:

  a. Rods are about 1000 times more sensitive than cones.

Explanation:

The answer choice shown is a direct copy of the first line of the problem statement. It doesn't appear to be any more complicated than that. (It's a reading comprehension question.)

PLEASE HELP!!!<br>How are middle latitude cyclones and tropical cyclones different from each other?
defon
In contrast, extratropical cyclones have their strongest winds near the tropopause, which is about 8 miles above the surface. These differences are due to the tropical cyclone being “warm-core” in the troposphere, whereas extra-tropical cyclones are “warm-core” in the stratosphere and “cold-core” in the troposphere.

A circular test track for cars has a circumference of 3.5 kmkm . A car travels around the track from the southernmost point to t
elixir [45]

Answer:

(A) Distance will be equal to 1.75 km

(B) Displacement will be equal to 1.114 km

Explanation:

We have given circumference of the circular track = 3.5 km

Circumference is given by 2\pi r=3.5

r = 0.557 km

(a) It is given that car travels from southernmost point to the northernmost point.

For this car have to travel the distance equal to semi perimeter of the circular track

So distance will be equal to =\frac{3.5}{2}=1.75km

(b) If car go along the diameter of the circular track then it will also go from southernmost point to the northernmost point. and it will be equal to diameter of the track

So displacement will be equal to d = 2×0.557 = 1.114 m

MakcuM [25]

Explanation:

A micrometer is a measuring device or an instrument which is used to measure very minute measurements very accurately and precisely. It is mathematical tool used to provide accurate measurement for any mechanical components.

Now, if the micrometer that I have found is badly bent, it would provide faulty or wrong measurements both in terms of  precision and accuracy when compared to a high quality meter stick.
