Chapter 34, Problem 3Q
Figure 34-27 is an overhead view of a mirror maze based on floor sections that are equilateral triangles. Every wall within the maze is mirrored. If you stand at entrance x, (a) which of the maze monsters a, b, and c hiding in the maze can you see along the virtual hallways extending from entrance x; (b) how many times does each visible monster appear in a hallway; and (c) what is at the far end of a hallway?

What is the smallest thing we can see? O smallest object that we can process with our eyes is limited to the size of the photoreceptor cells in the retina. In order for us to to distinguish any detail in an object, its image cannot be smaller cannot be smaller than a single retinal cell. Although the size depends on the type of cell (cone or rod), a diameter of of a few microns (mm) is common near the center of the eye. We should model the eye as a sphere 2.50 cm in diameter with a single slender lens in front and the retina behind, with photoreceptor cells 5.0 mm in diameter. (a) What is the smallest object object that you can perceive at a point near 25 cm? What angle is subtended by this object in the eye? Express your answer in units of minutes (1° 60 min) and compare it with the typical experimental value of about 1.0 min. (Note: there are other limitations, but we will ignore them here).
A physicist is hired to do some decorating at a celebration. The client is very keen on including some lighting effects, and in particular wants to have 365 stripes of yellow light (581.0 nm) evenly distributed on a 5.00 m Plexiglas board.a) Draw a labelled sketch of the display installation using an air wedge.b) Calculate the number of pieces of paper (each 1/10th of a millimeter) the physicist would need to insert at one end of the boards to make this happen.

- Estimate the height of the building shown in the following figure by the method of triangulation. The person is standing 5 meters from a pole, which is 15 meters from the building. The person's vision perceives the top of the pole aligned with the top of the building. The person is approximately 1.75 meters and the pole is approximately 3.5 meters. 15 m b) Estimate the volume and mass of water that exists in a lake. The shape of the lake is approximately circular, it is almost 500 meters in diameter and is supposed to have a average depth of 20.0 meters. Remember that the density of water is equal to 1000 Kg / m3 d= 500m h = 20.0marrow_forwardThe normal human eye has maximum visual acuity with a pupil size of about 3 mm. For larger pupils, acuity decreases due to increasing aberrations; for smaller pupils, acuity decreases due to increasing effects of diffraction. Ifyour pupil diameter is 2.0 mm, as it would be in fairly bright light, what is the smallest diameter circle that you can barely see as a circle, rather than just a dot, if the circle is at your near point, 25 cm from your eye?
