Prescriptions for vision correction are given called diopters (D). Determine the meaning of the unit. Obtain information ( perhaps by calling an optometrist or performing an internet search) on the minimum uncertaintly with which corrections is diopters are determined and the accuracy with which corrective lenses can be produced. Discuss the source of uncertainties in both the prescription and accuracy in the manufacture of lenses.
That's how I thought I would solve it, but unfortanetely the answer is not correct. The answer is 0.0 cm and 7.5 cm. Any idea as why that could be?
On a clear day a tiny fish hides under water (n water = 1.39 ) from an osprey under a circular leaf that has a diameter of
0.175 m. What is the maximum depth below the leaf that the fish can be so that it could not be spotted by the ospray?
Provide your answer in meters with a precision of four places after the decimal.
