    Comparison Eye
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on a request for help comparing the human eye to a camera, specifically identifying corresponding structures like the iris, eyeball, retina, cornea, and lens. Participants emphasize that the forum is not for direct homework answers and stress the importance of showing one's work for effective learning. The user attempting to answer the question makes initial comparisons but is corrected regarding the roles of the cornea and lens. A reference is provided to clarify the function of the cornea as the transparent covering of the eye. Overall, the conversation highlights the need for engagement and understanding in educational discussions.

hey i sort of lost my textbook and i don't know how to do this can someone help me out Please? If so here's the question:

The structure and function of the human eye and a simple camrea have many similarites. Useing the the terms iris,eyeball, retina , corena, and lens idnetify correspondying camrea structures and describe their function?

1. This is not the homework forum.
2. You did not show any work.
Last time (t=12571, Jan. 13) you posted 5 questions verbatim from a textbook, without showing any of your own work. Stupidly, someone actually answered them. These forums are for learning/discussing. You learn nothing if someone just gives you answers.

krab, I completely agree.

To dragun (and everyone else seeking help): Please read Tom's sticky at the top of the Homework Help forums (where I will move this thread).
 
Dragun, if you want homework help you have to show your work. Show us how you started and where you got stuck.
 
ok here's what i think

this is more of a s/a question so this is what i think ...

corena=lens of camera
retina=film of camera
iris=diaphramg of camera
lens= lens?
i can't think of the eyeball one not sure if the lens one is right either
 
No, the cornea is NOT the lens.

According to "StLukeseye.com", "The cornea is the transparent, dome-shaped window covering the front of the eye."
 
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanged mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
