Ford produced Model Ts in this manner for three years at its new Highland Park plant before adopting the assembly line. When modern drivers think about the Ford Model Tâif they think about it at allâthey perhaps dimly perceive it as the car that changed the world.
The Cornea. The cornea represents the strongest part of the refracting power of the eye, providing about 80% of the power of the system. The index of refraction of the cornea is about 1.376. Rays pass from the cornea into the watery fluid known as the aqueous humor which has an index of refraction of about 1.336, so most of the refraction is at the cornea-air interface.
1 the retina The retina is the inner layer of the eye. 2  It contains the light receptors, the rods and cones (and thus serves as the film of the eye). 3  The retina also has many interneurons that process the signals arising in the rods and cones before passing them back to the brain. This not only reduces the amount of light entering the eye but also improves its image-forming ability (as does stopping down the iris diaphragm of a camera). 2  the retina The retina is the inner layer of the eye. 3  It contains the light receptors, the rods and cones (and thus serves as the film of the eye).
