Very small particles moving in viscous fluids experience a drag force proportional to

speed. Consider a particle of net weight W dropped in a fluid. The particle experiences a

drag force, FD = kV, where V is the particle speed. Determine the time required for the

particle to accelerate from rest to 95 percent of its terminal velocity Vt in terms of k, W,

and g. Express the distance required to reach 95% of its terminal speed in terms of g, K,

and W.

People with normal vision cannot focus their eyes underwater if they aren't wearing a face mask or goggles and there is water in contact with their eyes. 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.with the simplified model of the eye, what corrective lens (specified by focal length as measured in air) would be needed to enable a person underwater to focus an infinitely distant object? (be careful-the focal length of a lens underwater is not the same as in air! assume that the corrective lens has a refractive index of 1.62 and that the lens is used in eyeglasses, not goggles, so there is water on both sides of the lens. assume that the eyeglasses are 2.05cm in front of the eye.)
