52. Ophthalmologists use the properties of inelastic collisions to detect a disease of the eye called glaucoma. While a healthy eye at normal pressure is slightly spongy, glaucoma causes the eye to become rigid due to a buildup of pressure in the eye. An ocular tonometer helps test for glaucoma by sending a puff of air to collide with the eye and measuring its rebound velocity. How would the impulse delivered to the puff of air against a healthy eye compare to an eye with glaucoma? The impulse delivered to the air puff by the healthy eye would be greater due to the higher rebound velocity of the air puff. A В. The impulse delivered to the air puff by the glaucoma eye would be greater due to the higher rebound velocity of the air puff. С. The impulse delivered to the air puff by the healthy eye would be greater due to the lower rebound velocity of the air puff. D. The impulse delivered to the air puff by the glaucoma eye would be greater due to the lower rebound velocity of the air puff. Page 18 I 19 Q - +

52. Ophthalmologists use the properties of inelastic collisions to detect a disease of the eye called glaucoma.
While a healthy eye at normal pressure is slightly spongy, glaucoma causes the eye to become rigid due to a
buildup of pressure in the eye. An ocular tonometer helps test for glaucoma by sending a puff of air to collide
with the eye and measuring its rebound velocity. How would the impulse delivered to the puff of air against a
healthy eye compare to an eye with glaucoma?
A
The impulse delivered to the air puff by the healthy eye would be greater due to the higher rebound velocity
of the air puff.
The impulse delivered to the air puff by the glaucoma eye would be greater due to the higher rebound
velocity of the air puff.
The impulse delivered to the air puff by the healthy eye would be greater due to the lower rebound velocity
of the air puff.
D.
The impulse delivered to the air puff by the glaucoma eye would be greater due to the lower rebound
velocity of the air puff.
