Joe is hiking through the woods when he decides to stop and take in the view. He is particularly interested in three objects: a squirrel sitting on a rock next to him, a tree a few meters away, and a distant mountain. As Joe is taking in the view, he thinks back to what he learned in his physics class about how the human eye works.
Light enters the eye at the curved front surface of the cornea, passes through the lens, and then strikes the retina and fovea on the back of the eye. The cornea and lens together form a compond lens system. The large difference between the index of refraction of air and that of the aqueous humor behind the cornea is responsible for most of the bending of the light rays that enter the eye, but it is the lens that allows our eyes to focus. The ciliary muscles surrounding the lens can be expanded and contracted to change the curvature of the lens, which in turn changes the effective focal length of the cornea-lens system. This in turn changes the location of the image of any object in one's field of view. Images formed on the fovea appear in focus. Images formed between the lens and the fovea appear blurry, as do images formed behind the fovea. Therefore, to focus on some object, you adjust your ciliary muscles until the image of that object is located on the fovea.
A) Joe first focuses his attention (and his eyes) on the tree. The focal length of the cornea-lens system in his eye must be __________ the distance between the front and back of his eye.
a. greater than
b. less than
c. equal to
B) Joe's eyes are focused on the tree, so the squirrel and the mountain appear out of focus. This is because the image of the squirrel is formed ______ and the image of the mountain is formed _____.
a. between the lens and fovea / between the lens and fovea
b. between the lens and fovea / behind the fovea
c. behind the fovea / between the lens and fovea
d. behind the fovea / behind the fovea
C) Joe now shifts his focus from the tree to the squirrel. To do this, the ciliary muscles in his eyes must have _____ the curvature of the lens, resulting in a(n) _______ focal length for the cornea-lens system. Note that curvature is different from radius of curvature.
a. increased / increased
b. increased / decreased
c. decreased / increased
d. decreased / decreased

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A) correct answer is C,   B)   correct answer is b  and C) The correct answer is b

Explanation:

In the exercises of geometric optics, the equation of the constructor tells us the location of the image.

        1 / f = 1 / p + 1 / q

where f is the focal length of the cornea-crystalline system, p and q are the distances to the object and the image.

In this case, the distance to the image on the retina is constant, about 3 cm. Therefore depending on the distance to the object) p = the focal length must change

        1 / q = 1 / f 1 / p

let's apply this expression to our case

A) indicates that the tree is at a medium distance

so that the image is formed on the retina THE SAME AS

correct answer is C

B) The squirrel is at a smaller distance (p ') than the tree (p), therefore if we substitute in the equation above we find that q must decrease. Consequently the image is in front of the retina

The mountain is very far, suppose in infinity, so the image is BEHIND THE RETINA

therefore the correct answer is b

C) The squirrel is very close so the curvature of the lens INCREASES, resulting in a DECREASE in the focal length

The correct answer is b

A bar of silicon is 4 cm long with a circular cross section. If the resistance of the bar is 280 Ω at room temperature, what is the cross-sectional radius of the bar?

Answers

Answer:

r = 17.05 cm

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of silicon bar is 4 cm or 0.04 m

Resistance of the bar is 280 ohms

We know that the resistivity of the silicon is 640 Ωm

We need to find the cross-sectional radius of the bar. Let it is r.

Using definition of resistance of an object. It is given by :

[tex]R=\rho\dfrac{l}{A}[/tex]

A is area of bar, A = πr²

So,

[tex]R=\rho\dfrac{l}{\pi r^2}\\\\r^2=\dfrac{\rho l}{R\pi}\\\\r^2=\dfrac{640\times 0.04}{280\pi}\\\\r=0.1705\ m\\\\r=17.05\ cm[/tex]

So, the cross-sectional radius of the bar is 17.05 cm.

Two cars collide head on while each is traveling at 60km/h .Suppose all their kinetic energy is transformed into the thermal energy of the wrecks. What is the temperature increase of each car?You can assume that each car's specific heat is that of iron.

Answers

Answer:

The  temperature rise [tex]\Delta T = 0.3088 \ ^oC[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  speed is  [tex]v = 60 \ km /h = 16.67 \ m/s[/tex]

 

Generally according to the law of energy conservation we have that

   The  kinetic energy  =  increase in the internal energy of the car

i,e          [tex]\frac{1}{2} * m * v^2 = m * c_p * \Delta T[/tex]

Here  [tex]c_p[/tex] of  iron is  [tex]c_p = 450 \ J/kg K[/tex]

      So  

            [tex]0.5 * 16.67^2 = 450 * \Delta T[/tex]

=>         [tex]\Delta T = 0.3088 \ ^oC[/tex]

     

The temperature increase of each car will be 0.3088 °C.

What is temperature?

Temperature directs to the hotness or coldness of a body. In clear terms, it is the method of finding the kinetic energy of particles within an entity. Faster the motion of particles more the temperature.

The given data in the problem is;

v is the velocity= 60 km/h=16.67 m/sec

ΔT is the temperature difference=?

[tex]\rm c_P[/tex] is the specific heat of iron=450 J/KgK

From the law of energy conservation of the energy, the kinetic energy is equal to the increase in the internal energy of the car.

[tex]\rm KE=\triangle E \\\\\ \frac{1}{2} mv^2=mc_p \triangle T \\\\ \triangle T=\frac{v^2}{2C_p} \\\\\ \triangle T=\frac{(16.67)^2}{2\times 450} \\\\ \triangle T=0.3088 ^0\C[/tex]

Hence the temperature increase of each car will be 0.3088 °C.

You slide a coin across the floor, and observe that it slows down and eventually stops. A sensitive thermometer shows that its temperature increased. What can we conclude

Answers

Answer:

The mechanical energy of the coin has been used up in doing work against friction.

Explanation:

When two bodies in contact move against one another, friction comes to play. Friction converts energy in such a system to heat which raises the temperature of the body, with most lost to the ambient environment. Sliding the coins on the floor transfers energy from your hand into the mechanical energy of the coin as it moves across the floor. Fiction between the coin and the surface of the floor gradually slows the coin down by converting its energy to heat (which raises the temperature of the coin as detected by the thermometer) until the coin comes to a halt.

To initiate a nuclear reaction, an experimental nuclear physicist wants to shoot a proton into a 5.50-fm-diameter 12C nucleus. The proton must impact the nucleus with a kinetic energy of 1.80 MeV. Assume the nucleus remains at rest.

Required:
a. With what speed must the proton be fired toward the target?
b. Through what potential difference must the proton be accelerated from rest to acquire this speed?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

kinetic energy required = 1.80 MeV

= 1.8 x 10⁶ x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

= 2.88 x 10⁻¹³ J

If v be the velocity of proton

1/2 x mass of proton x v² = 2.88 x 10⁻¹³

= .5 x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ x v² = 2.88 x 10⁻¹³

v² = 3.45 x 10¹⁴

v = 1.86 x 10⁷ m /s

If V be the potential difference required

V x e = kinetic energy . where e is charge on proton .

V x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ = 2.88 x 10⁻¹³

V = 1.8 x 10⁶ volt .

An air-filled capacitor consists of two parallel plates, each with an area of 8 cm^2 , separated by a distance 2.9 mm. A 22 V potential difference is applied to these plates.
What is the magnitude of the surface charge density on each plate?

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude of the surface charge density on each plate is 6.714 x 10⁻ C/m²

Explanation:

Given;

area of the parallel plates, A = 8 cm² = 8 x 10⁻⁴ m²

distance between the plates, d = 2.9 mm = 0.0029 m

potential difference applied to the plates, V = 22 V

The electric field between the plates is given by;

[tex]E = \frac{V}{d} \\\\E = \frac{22}{2.9*10^{-3}}\\\\E = 7586.207 \ V/m[/tex]

The surface charge density is given by;

σ = ε₀E

σ = (8.85 x 10⁻¹²)(7586.207)

σ = 6.714 x 10⁻ C/m²

Therefore, the magnitude of the surface charge density on each plate is 6.714 x 10⁻ C/m²

So intensity is sound level Bis

10dBlog(I/Io)

I= 10 (B/10dB)Io

= 10( 90/10) x 10^-12

=0.001W/m²

But we know that

I = P/A

P= I πr²

Given :

Time = 8hrs *(3600secs/1hr)= 28.8*10³seconds

Intensity= 90dB

D= 0.008m

Radius=0.008m/2

=0.004m

the sound level in decibel can be expressed below as

I=10dBlog[I/I₀]

where I₀=10⁻¹²/m² which is the refrence intensity

90=10log[I/10⁻¹²]

I=0.001W/m²

we know that intensity of the wave which id the average rate per unit area which energy is transfered can be calculated using below formular

I = P/A

where P= powerr which is renergy transfer at a time

A= area= πr²

making P subject of formular we have

P= I πr²

= 5.02 x10⁻⁸W

Two identical balls are thrown directly upward, ball A at speed v and ball B at speed 2v, and they feel no air resistance. Which statement about these balls is correct

Answers

Answer:

B) Ball B will go four times as high as ball A because it had four times the initial kinetic energy.

Explanation:

The complete question is

Two identical balls are thrown directly upward, ball A at speed v and boll B at speed 2v. and they feel no air resistance. Which statement about these balls is correct? A) Ball B will go twice as high as ball A because it had twice the initial speed. B) Ball B will go four times as high as ball A because it had four times the initial kinetic energy. C) The balls will reach the same height because they have the same mass and the same acceleration. D) At its highest point, ball B will have twice as much gravitational potential energy as ball A because it started out moving twice as fast. E) At their highest point, the acceleration of each ball is instantaneously equal to zero because they stop for an instant.

According to conservation of energy, the mechanical energy of a ball thrown up is equal to the sum of the potential energy and the kinetic energy. At its highest point, all the mechanical energy will be equal to the potential energy. At the instant when it was thrown, all the mechanical energy is proportional to its kinetic energy, which will be proportional to the potential energy at the highest point. Also, potential energy is proportional to the maximum height reached.

We know that the kinetic energy is given as [tex]\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}[/tex]

where

m is the mass of the balls, which is the same for both ball,

and v is the velocity.

We can see that the kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the initial velocity with which the ball is thrown.

For the ball A thrown with velocity v, the kinetic energy is proportional to [tex]v^{2}[/tex],

and for the ball B with velocity 2v, kinetic energy is proportional to [tex]4v^{2}[/tex]

comparing the two, we'll see that the ball B will had 4 times the energy of ball A. Therefore ball B will go four times as high as ball A because it had four times the initial kinetic energy

Answers

Answer:

F = 3.03 10⁷ N

Explanation:

We will eat by calculating the pressure in the tank

         P = ρ g h

the pressure totals the sum of the pressure of each liquid

       P_total = P_oil + P_water + P_Hg

       P_total = ρ_oil ​​g h_oil + ρ_water g h_water + ρ_Hg g h_Hg

       P_total = g (ρ_oil ​​h_oil + ρ_water h_water + ρ_Hg h_Hg)

       P_total = 9.8 (800 8 + 1000 6 + 13 600 5)

        P_total = 7,879 10⁵ Pa

The definition of Pressure is

       P = F / A

        F = P A

The area of ​​a tank is the area of ​​a circle

       A = π r² = π d² / 4

       

      F = P π d² / 4

let's calculate

      F = 7,879 10⁵ π 7²/4

      F = 3.03 10⁷ N

In this calculation the atmospheric pressure was not taken into account because they ask the hydrostatic pressure

You throw a balloon that floats in the air with a velocity of 2 m / s south . If the wind speed is 5 m / s west , how far south will the balloon travel after 2 seconds ?

Answers

Answer:

The distance traveled by the balloon is 10.77 m

Explanation:

velocity of the ball, [tex]v_b[/tex] = 2 m/s south

velocity of the air, [tex]v_a[/tex] = 5 m/s west

To determine the distance the balloon will travel after 2 seconds, first determine the resultant velocity of the balloon.

                                       | 2m/s

                                       |

                                       |

                                      ↓

      5m/s  ←------------------

the two velocities forms a right angled triangle and the resultant will be the hypotenuses side of the triangle.

R² = 5² + 2²

R² = 29

R = √29

R = 5.385 m/s

The distance traveled by the balloon is calculated as;

d = R x t

where;

t is time of the motion = 2 seconds

d = 5.385 x 2

d = 10.77 m

Therefore, the distance traveled by the balloon is 10.77 m.

When landing after a spectacular somersault, a 41 kg gymnast decelerates by pushing straight down on the mat. Calculate the force she must exert if her deceleration is 7.00 times the acceleration due to gravity. Explicitly show how you follow the steps in the Problem-Solving Strategy for Newton's laws of motion.

Answers

Answer:

The force the  gymnast  must exert is 2812.6 N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the gymnast, m = 41 kg

her deceleration, -a = 7g = 7 x 9.8m/s² = 68.6 m/s²

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

F = ma

where;

F is the magnitude of the force exerted

m is the mass of the gymnast

a is the deceleration

Substitute in the given values of m and a into the force equation;

F = ma

F = 41 x 68.6

F = 2812.6 N

Therefore, the force the  gymnast  must exert is 2812.6 N.

Suppose that you measure the length of a spaceship, at rest relative to you, to be 400 m. How long will you measure it to be if it flies past you at a speed of v

Answers

Answer:

264 m

Explanation:

The complete question is

Suppose that you measure the length of a spaceship, at rest relative to you, to be 400 m. How long will you measure it to be if it flies past you at a speed of v = 0.75c

using the length contraction relationship,

[tex]l = l_{0} \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }[/tex]

where [tex]\beta = \frac{v}{c}[/tex]

[tex]l[/tex] is the relativistic length

[tex]l_{0}[/tex] is the actual length = 400 m

v is the velocity of the spaceship

c is the speed of light

since v = 0.75c

v/c = 0.75

substituting, we have

[tex]l = 400 * \sqrt{1 - 0.75 ^{2} }[/tex] = 400 x 0.66 = 264 m

A very long straight current-carrying wire produces a magnetic field of 20 mT at a distance d from the wire. To measure a field of 5 mT due to this wire, you would have to go to a distance from the wire of
A- 4d.
B - 16d.
C - d sqrt2
D- 8d.
E- 2d.

Answers

Answer:

A. 4d

Explanation:

Magnetic field strength is inversely proportional to distance. So in order to have a smaller magnetic field, we need to move further out from the wire. How far we go exactly can be determined from the formula: B=(μ₀I)/(2πr)

(That is derived from Ampere's Law, which states ∫B•dl=μ₀I)

With that you can set up a ratio between the magnetic fields in both cases. Because the current is the same for both instances, everything reduces out on one side of the equation and leaves you with something that relates the two distances by a ratio of each magnetic field value.

what is the percent uncertainty in the volume of a spherical beach ball whose radius is r = .84 plus or minus .04 m?

Answers

Answer:

The percent uncertainty in the volume   [tex]\frac{\delta V}{V} * 100 = 14.286\%[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The radius is  [tex]r = 0.84 \pm 0.04 \ m[/tex]

From the given value

   The  uncertainty of  radius  is  [tex]\delta r = 0.04[/tex]

   Generally the volume of a spherical beach ball is mathematically represented as

         [tex]V = \frac{4\pi }{3}* r^3[/tex]

Now taking the log of both sides

         [tex]log V = log [\frac{4\pi}{3} ] * r^3[/tex]

=>    [tex]log V = log [\frac{4\pi}{3} ] + log( r^3)[/tex]

=>    [tex]log V = log [\frac{4\pi}{3} ] + 3log( r)[/tex]

Differentiating both sides

        [tex]\frac{1}{V} \delta V = 0 + 3 [\frac{1}{r} ] \ \delta r[/tex]

Now converting them to percentage by multiplying by 100

What magnetic field strength will allow the electrons to pass through without being deflected?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

If magnetic field exists parallel  to the direction of motion of electron , no force will act on the electrons and hence there will be no deflection in them .

In such cases , the magnitude of magnetic field is immaterial . No matter how high or low magnitude of magnetic field be , if it is parallel to the velocity of electron , it will not be deflected as the force created on them will be zero.

Only in case magnetic field  makes some angle with the direction of velocity , force will be created and electron will be deflected .

A paper pinwheel is spinning in the wind. Which statement is correct about the forces responsible for the rotation?​

Answers

A paper pinwheel is spinning in the wind.

Which statement is correct about the forces responsible for the rotation?

The components of gravity and the force of wind that point through the pivot are responsible for the rotation.

Only the perpendicular component of wind is responsible for the rotation, because gravity points downward.

Only the perpendicular component of gravity is responsible for the rotation, because wind points toward the pivot.

The perpendicular components of gravity and the force of wind are responsible for the rotation.

Answer:

Only the perpendicular component of gravity is responsible for the rotation because wind points toward the pivot.

Explanation:

A pinwheel is a plaything that is made up of paper that is designed to spin when the wind comes in contact with it. The paper is held fast to its axle by a pin which enables it to spin.

Therefore, if the pinwheel is spun anti-clockwise, it brings electrical energy, converting the wind energy and only the perpendicular component of gravity is responsible for the rotation because wind points toward the pivot.
