What type of specialized cell in the eye is used for detecting low levels of light?

Physics

Hunter-Best [27]3 years ago

Answer:

There are about six to seven million cones in a human eye and are most concentrated towards the macula. Cones are less sensitive to light than the rod cells in the retina (which support vision at low light levels), but allow the perception of color.

In one hour, coal supplies 500 000 J of energy. The energy amounts to 380 000 J. How much useful energy is produced in one hour?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

120,000J

Corrected question;

In one hour, coal supplies 500 000 J of energy. The wasted energy amounts to 380 000 J. How much useful energy is produced in one hour?

Explanation:

Given;

Total energy Et = 500,000 J

Wasted Energy Ew = 380,000J

The amount useful energy is the amount of energy that is available for supply.

This can be derived by subtracting the wasted energy from the total energy.

Useful energy = Total Energy - wasted energy

Eu = Et - Ew

Substituting the given values;

Eu = 500,000J - 380,000

Eu = 120,000 J

The amount of useful energy produced in one hour is 120,000 J

A ferry is travelling at 10 m/s relative to the river towards the south. The river is flowing at 2 m/s relative to
mixer [17]

Answer:

11 m/s south

Explanation:

The velocity of the passenger relative to the river bank is equal to the velocity of the passenger relative to the ferry, plus the velocity of the ferry relative to the river, plus the velocity of the river relative to the river bank.

v_passenger,bank = v_passenger,ferry + v_ferry,river + v_river,bank

If we take north to be positive and south to be negative:

v = 1.0 m/s + (-10 m/s) + (-2 m/s)

v = -11 m/s

v = 11 m/s south

Suppose the entire population of the world gathers in ONE spot and everyone jumps at the sound of a prearranged signal. While ev
puteri [66]

Answer:

(b) Yes, the earth gains momentum but the change in momentum of the earth is much lesser compared to that of everyone in the air. The resistance to motion (inertia of the earth), which is a function of its mass is so great that the earth's acceleration is small in the given time frame.

Explanation:

From Newton's second law which can be stated mathematically as

F = m(v-u)/t = ma.

By Newton's law of gravitation, there is a force between the earth and everyone in the air. This force is responsible for the change in momentum of everyone in the air and this force gives them an acceleration equal to g = 9.80m/s². By Newton's law of gravitation and Newton's third law of motion, this force is also equal to the force exerted by everyone on the earth.

For this to be true,

F = M (everyone) ×a (everyone) = M(earth) × a (earth).

And

a (earth) = {M (everyone) ×a (everyone) }/M (earth)

Then

a (earth) must be lesser than a (everyone) since M(earth) >> M(everyone).

a = change in momentum/ time

Therefore the earth will have a much lesser change in momentum which is the reason we won't notice the earth's movement.

Thank you for reading.
