Introduction The purpose of this report is to address the application of treating common vision problems associated with geometric optics. This report will also attend to the nature of the conditions‚ different methods of treating the conditions and compare the success rates for these methods. The two common vision problems that will be concentrated in this report is Myopia (Nearsightedness)‚ Hyperopia (Farsightedness). Nature of the Condition Myopia is a common vision impairment in which close

A superconductor is a metallic alloy that conducts electricity without resistance‚ below a certain temperature. Once in motion‚ an electrical current will flow in a closed loop within a superconducting material. This is the closest to scientists of a perpetual motion machine. In 1911‚ Heike Kamerlingh Onnes first observed superconductivity. He used mercury and cooled to four degrees Kelvin. When the mercury reached that temperature‚ the resistance disappeared. That meant that the electrical current

Flight is a phenomenon that has long been a part of the natural world. Birds fly not only by flapping their wings‚ but by gliding with their wings outstretched for long distances. Smoke‚ which is composed of tiny particles‚ can rise thousands of feet into the air. Both these types of flight are possible because of the principles of physical science. Likewise‚ man-made aircraft rely on these principles to overcome the force of gravity and achieve flight. Lighter-than-air craft‚ such as the hot

Geometrical Optics: Snell’s Law PHY101 Lab 12 Date: July 23rd‚ 2012 Objective: The purpose of this laboratory activity is to develop a set of experimental procedures that answer questions regarding Snell’s Law and the index of refraction. Ultimately‚ the experimental procedures you develop will allow the index of refraction to be found for water and cooking oil. 1. Explain how to experimentally determine the index of refraction of two substances. 2. Develop a set of experimental
