Myopic eye focuses image in front of retina. A diverging (concave) lens spreads light so image falls on retina. Hypermetropia (farsightedness) corrected by convex lens. Bifocals for presbyopia. Cylindrical for astigmatism.
Explanation:
Atomic number Z = number of protons. Mass number A = protons + neutrons. So neutrons = A - Z. Electrons = Z in neutral atom. Isotopes same Z, different N.
Explanation:
Solar cells (photovoltaic cells) convert light energy (photons) directly into electrical energy via the photovoltaic effect: photons excite electrons in semiconductor material, creating electron-hole pairs that generate voltage. This is distinct from solar thermal (light to heat to electricity) or batteries (chemical to electrical). Memory aid: 'Photo = light; voltaic = electricity'. This renewable energy application question tests knowledge of energy conversion principles, common in competitive exams. Always distinguish photovoltaic (direct light-electricity) from other solar technologies.
