A Nearsighted Eye. A certain very nearsighted person cannot focus on anything farther than 36.0 cm from the eye. Consider the simplified model of the eye. In a simplified model of the human eye, the aqueous and vitreous humors and the lens all have a refractive index of 1.40, and all the refraction occurs at the cornea, whose vertex is 2.60 cm from the retina. Required:
a. If the radius of curvature of the cornea is 0.65 cm when the eye is focusing on an object 36.0 cm from the cornea vertex and the indexes of refraction are as described before, what is the distance from the cornea vertex to the retina?
b. What does this tell you about the shape of the nearsighted eye?

1. This distance is greater than for the normal eye.
2. This distance is shorter than for the normal eye.

a) The distance from the cornea vertex to the retina is 2.37 cm

b) This distance is shorter than for the normal eye.

Explanation:

a) Let refractive index of air,

n(air) = x = 1

Let refractive index of lens,

n(lens) = y = 1.4

Object distance, s = 36 cm

Radius of curvature, R = 0.65 cm

The distance from the cornea vertex to the retina is the image distance because image is formed in the retina.

Image distance, s' = ?

(x/s) + (y/s') = (y-x)/R

(1/36) + (1.4/s') = (1.4 - 1)/0.65

1.4/s' = 0.62 - 0.028

1.4/s' = 0.592

s' = 1.4/0.592

s' = 2.37 cm

Distance from the cornea vertex to the retina is 2.37 cm

(b) For a normal eye, the distance between the cornea vertex and the retina is 2.60 cm. Since 2.37 < 2.60, this distance is shorter than for normal eye.

can u provide the graph and if its not possible

then i can tell u the segment where the

average time interval starts degrading is the segment where the car is slowing down
