Why does a person not able to see for some time when he comes out of a well lighted room at night or enters a dark room at day time?

These questions consist of two statements each,printed as Assertion and Reason.While answering these questions you are required to chose any one of the following four responses. If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason in correct explanation of Assertion. If both assertion and Reason are true but reason is not correct explanation of Assertion. If Assertion is true but Reason is false. If both Assertion and Reason are false. Assertion:A man is blind for some time when he comes out of a well lighted room to a dark place. Reason:iodopsin of cone cells is bleached in the presence of strong light.

It is difficult to see through a closed glass window from the inside of a well lighted room,when it is dark outside.However,it becomes relatively easy to see outside,when the lights in the room are switched off.Explain.

When we enter some dark room then for some time we are not able to see anything and rKHOaning there for long,if suddenly strong light is switched on then our eyes can not see anything why?

A sulphate salt of the group 2 element of the periodic table is a white, soft substance, which can be molded into different shapes by making its dough. When this compound is left in open for some time, it becomes a solid mass and cannot be used for molding purposes. Identify the sulphate salt and why does the show such a behaviour? give one reaciton involved.

Some of the most profound statements on the nature of science have come from Albert Einstein, one of the greatest scientists of all time. What do you think did Einstein mean when he said : "The most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is comprehensible"?

Classically, an electron can be in any orbit around the nucleus of an atom. Then what determines the typical atomic size? Why is an atom not, say, thousand times bigger than its typical size? The question had greatly puzzled Bohr before he arrived at his famous model of the atom that you have learnt in the text. To simulate what he might well have done before his discovery, let us play as follows with the basic constants of and see if we can get a quantity with the dimensions of length that is roughly equal to the known of an atom (~ 10^ -10 m).- Construct a quantity with the dimensions of length from the fundamental constants e, m_e , and c. Determine its numerical value.

Thequestion had greatly puzzled Bohr before he arrived at his famous model of the atom that you have learnt in the text. To simulate what he might well have done before his discovery, let us play as followswith the basic constants of nature e, me, c and see if we can get a quantity with the dimensions of length that is roughly equal to the known size of an atom (~ 10 m).- You will find that the length obtained above is many orders of magnitude smaller than the atomic dimensions. Further, it involves c. But energies of atoms are mostly in non-relativistic domain where c is not expected to play any role. This is what may have suggested Bohr to discard c and look for else h had already made its appearance elsewhere. Bohr lay in recognising that h, m_e , and e will yield the right atomic size. Construct a quantity with the dimension of length from h, me, and e and confirm that its numerical value has indeed the correct order of magnitude.
