As light waves enter the eye, which three structures do they pass through first?

1 answer:

4 0

As light enters to the eye, it would pass first through three (3) structures or main layers/tunics:
1. Fibrous tunic - outermost layer of the eye. Consists of cornea and sclera which gives the eye white color and protect the inner parts of the eye.
2. Vascular tunic - middle layer of the eye. Consists of iris and choroid which gives the dark color of the eye and inhibits disorderly reflections inside the eye.
3. Nervous tunic - inner layer of the eye. Consist of retina which is responsible for vision

vladimir2022 [97]

All metals except potassium and sodium, have a property known as malleability. Malleability is the quality of something that can be shaped into something else without breaking. So when aluminium and copper are hammered they will not break. Rather they will change shape and become thin or flat at the area where its hammered.

All Non- metals except diamond are brittle in nature, so when we hammer it , they will break down into pieces. So when ice and glass will be hammered they will shatter into pieces.

The efficiency of a device such as a lamp can be calculated using this equation:

loris [4]

efficiency = (useful energy transferred ÷ energy supplied) × 100

It's easy to use this formula, but we have to know both the useful energy and the energy supplied. The drawing doesn't tell us the useful energy, so we have to find a clever way to figure it out. I see two ways to do it:

Way #1:

We all know about the law of conservation of energy. So we know that the total energy coming out must be 250J, because that's how much energy is going in. The wasted energy is 75J, so the rest of the 250J must be the useful energy . . . (250J - 75J) = 175J useful energy.

(useful energy) / (energy supplied) = (175J) / (250J) = 70% efficiency

================================

Way #2:

How much of the energy is wasted ? . . . 75J wasted

What percentage of the Input is that 75J ? . . . 75/250 = 30% wasted

30% of the input energy is wasted. That leaves the other 70% to be useful energy.

Answer:

15 protons and 18 electrons

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry

Reading a Periodic Table
Element Number
Neutral Atoms
Ions

Explanation:

We are given the element P. P is 15 on the Periodic Table, meaning it has 15 protons and 15 electrons (all elements are in neutral form).

P³⁻ ion means the element now has a negative charge of 3. We know protons have a positive charge and electrons have a negative charge. 3- means we will have more electrons than protons.

Therefore, P³⁻ would have 15 protons and 18 electrons:

15 (+) + 18 (-) = 3 (-)

fredd [130]

To solve this problem, we are going to use the formula for work which is Fd where x and y are measured separately.

X direction: W = 13.5 x 230 = 3105 Joules

Y direction: W = -14.3 x -165 = 2360 Joules

So the total work is getting the sum of the two: 3105 + 2360 = 5465 Joules
