1. Under favorable conditions, the human eye can detect light waves with intensities as low as 2.50 × 10−12 W/m2. At this intensity, what is the average power incident on a pupil of diameter 8.00 mm?
2. A standing wave has wavenumber 203 rad/m. What is the distance between two adjacent nodes?

The pupil of the eye is the circular opening through which light enters. Its diameter can vary from about 8.00 mm to about 2.00 mm to control the intensity of the light reaching the interior. Calculate the angular resolution, OR, of the eye for light that has a wavelength of 578 nm in both bright light and dim light. Dim Light Bright Light Number Number 0.011 O 0.176 O At which light level is diffraction less of a limiting factor...
