The pupil of the eye is the circular opening through which light enters. Its diameter can vary from about 2.0 mm to about 8.0 mm to control the intensity of the light reaching the retina. (a) Calculate the angular resolution, uR, of the eye for light that has a wavelength of 550 nm in both bright light and dim light. In which light can you see more sharply, dim or bright? (b) You probably have noticed that when you squint, objects that were a bit blurry suddenly become somewhat clearer. In light of your results in part (a), explain why squinting helps you see an object more clearly.

Imagine you are riding on a yacht in the ocean and traveling at 20 mph. you then hit a golf ball at 100 mph from the deck of the yacht. you see the ball move away from you at 100mph, while a person standing on a near by beach would observe your golf ball traveling at 120 mph (20 mph + 100 mph). now imagine you are aboard the hermes spacecraft traveling at 0.1c (1/10 the speed of light) past mars and shine a laser from the front of the ship. you would see the light traveling at c (the speed of light) away from your ship. according to einstein’s special relativity, how fast will a person on mars observe the light to be traveling? a) 0.1c (1/10 the speed of light) b) c (the speed of light) c)1.1c (c+0.1c)

The starship enterprise is caught in a time warp and spock is forced to use the primitive techniques of the 20th century to determine the specific heat capacity of an unknown mineral. the 125-g sample was heated to 96.3°c and placed into a calorimeter containing 85.9 g of water at 20.0°c. the heat capacity of the calorimeter was 14.2 j/k. the final temperature in the calorimeter was 24.5°c. what is the specific heat capacity (in j/g°c) of the mineral? enter to 4 decimal places.
