Question
Chapter 16.4, Problem 18AYLO
Summary Introduction
To discuss:
The saccule and utricle hair cell stimulation by the linear acceleration and their differences in the body sensation between the vertical and horizontal acceleration.
Introduction:
Ear is a hearing organ for a sound response that comes from the vibration of air molecules, and their equilibrium comes from the movement, orientation, and balance of the body. These two senses come from the inner ear containing the sensory cells.

To be able to drive safely and obtain his driving license, he needs to be able to clearly see objects up to 100 m away. In this problem, Pmin eye = minimum optical power of the patient’s natural eyes, Pmin combo = minimum optical power of the patient’s natural eyes + corrective glasses, and Pmin glasses =  minimum optical power of the corrective glasses.  Questions:  What is the cause of the patient’s vision problems (i.e., his medical diagnosis)? What does this diagnosis mean for the patient?  If the patient opted to purchase glasses, would corrective lenses create real or virtual images in the patient’s field of vision? Would the eye interpret images produced by the glasses as real or virtual images?  What assumptions can be made about the size of the patient’s eyeball and their lens-retina distance (units of m)?  Define the term far point.
