The transmission of light waves is usually done through cornea of the eyes, then move through another opening which is regarded as pupil before it will get to the retina.

  • Light waves can be regarded as moving energy which contains microscopic particles known as photons.
  • The vision of the eye can be completed through the light wave passing through the components of the eyes and this process goes thus;
  • Light will move through the (cornea) which is situated at the front area of the eyes into lens.
  • Then both the cornea and the lens give room for the focusing of the light rays to the retina which is situated at the back of the eye .
  • Then through the help of the cells in the retina, the light will be absorbed and then be converted to  electrochemical impulses and then transfer it to the brain as well as optic nerve.

Therefore, light wave are form of tiny microscopic particles.

A 0.35-kgkg cord is stretched between two supports, 7.4 mm apart. When one support is struck by a hammer, a transverse wave trav
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The tension in the string is T = 1.49*10^{-6}N.

Explanation:

For a string with tension T and linear density \mu_d carrying a transverse wave at speed v it is true that

v = \sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu_d} }

solving for T we get:

T = \dfrac{v^2}{\mu_d}.

Now, the transverse wave covers the distance of 7.4mm in 0.88s, which means it's speed is

v =\dfrac{7.4*10^{-3}m}{0.88s} \\\\v = 8.4*10^{-3}s

And it's linear density (mass per unit length) is

\mu_d = \dfrac{0.35kg}{7.4*10^{-3}m} \\\\\mu_d = 47.3kg/m

Therefore, the tension in the cord is

T = \dfrac{(8.4*10^{-3}m/s^2)^2}{47.3kg/m}.

\boxed{T = 1.5*10^{-6}N}

or in micro newtons

T =1.5\mu N

A tray is moved horizontally back and forth in simple harmonic motion at a frequency of f = 2.07 Hz. On this tray is an empty cu
Anettt [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Frequency of SHM is f=2.07\ Hz

Amplitude of SHM is A=3.13\ cm

Cup begins to slip when it overcomes the friction force

Friction force F_s=\mu mg

Applied force F=ma

ma=\mu mg

a=\mu g

and maximum acceleration during SHM is

a=A\omega ^2

a=A(2\pi f)^2

a=3.13\times 10^{-2}\times (2\pi 2.07)^2

a=5.296\ m/s^2

\mu =\frac{a}{g}

\mu =\frac{5.296}{9.8}=0.54
