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

An old-fashioned LP record rotates at 33 1/3 RPM

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Part a) $\frac{5}{9}\ \frac{rev}{sec}$

Part b) $\frac{9}{5}\ \frac{sec}{rev}$

Explanation:

Part a) what is its frequency, in rev/s

we have that

An old-fashioned LP record rotates at 33 1/3 RPM

$33\frac{1}{3}\ \frac{rev}{min}$

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

$33\frac{1}{3}\ \frac{rev}{min}=\frac{33*3+1}{3}=\frac{100}{3}\ \frac{rev}{min}$

Remember that

$1\ min=60\ sec$

Convert rev/min to rev/sec

$\frac{100}{3}\ \frac{rev}{min}=\frac{100}{3}(\frac{1}{60})=\frac{100}{180}\ \frac{rev}{sec}$

Simplify

$\frac{5}{9}\ \frac{rev}{sec}$

Part b) what is it period, in seconds

we know that

The period is the reciprocal of the frequency

therefore

the frequency is

$\frac{9}{5}\ \frac{sec}{rev}$

What type of reaction feels cold to the touch? A. Endothermic, because energy is being released into the surroundings B. Endothe

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

D. Exothermic, because energy is being absorbed from the surroundings

Explanation:

This is true about the Exothemic reaction due to the fact that, the reaction occurs outside the body. During this reaction, the energy being absorbed <em>from the surrounding environment will hit the body surface thereby creating the coldness due to the heat given out from the body being minimal.</em>

A 1.0-cm-tall object is 13 cm in front of a converging lens that has a 40 cm focal length.

kicyunya [14]

A) Image position: -19.3 cm

B) Image height: 1.5 cm, upright

Explanation:

In order to calculate the image position, we can use the lens equation:

$\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}$

where

p is the distance of the object from the lens

q is the distance of the image from the lens

f is the focal length

In this problem, we have:

p = 13 cm (object distance)

f = 40 cm (focal length, positive for a converging lens)

So the image distance is

$\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{40}-\frac{1}{13}=-0.0519\\q=\frac{1}{-0.0519}=-19.3 cm$

The negative sign means that the image is virtual.

In order to calculate the image height, we use the magnification equation:

$\frac{y'}{y}=-\frac{q}{p}$

where

y' is the image height

y is the object height

In this problem, we have:

y = 1.0 cm (object height)

p = 13 cm

q = -19.3 cm

Therefore, the image heigth is

$y'=-\frac{qy}{p}=-\frac{(-19.3)(1.0)}{13}=1.5 cm$

And the positive sign means the image is upright.

Consider an electrical transformer has 10 loops on its primary coil and 20 loops on its secondary coil. What is the voltage in t

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

240 V

Explanation:

number of turns in primary coil, Np = 10

Number of loops in secondary coil, Ns = 20

Voltage in primary coil, Vp = 120 V

Let the voltage in secondary coil is Vs.

So, Vs / Vp = Ns / Np

Vs / 120 = 20 / 10

Vs / 120 = 2

Vs = 240 V

Thus, the voltage in secondary coil is 240 Volt.
