Chromatic aberration comes from the fact that different wavelengths of light travel at different speeds through the material of

the lens; that is, they have different indices of refraction, a property known as dispersion. This means that a lens, in effect, has different focal lengths for different wavelengths of light. Consider a lens made to the following specifications: focal length for red light fred=19.57cm, focal length for blue light fblue=18.87cm.
Part A

Consider an object 5.000cm tall placed a distance 30.00cm from the lens. Assuming that the object reflects both red and blue light, find the ratio yredyblueof the height of the red image to the height of the blue image.

Express your answer numerically to three significant figures.

Answer:

 y_red / y_blue = 1.11

Explanation:

Let's use the constructor equation to find the image for each wavelength

         1 /f = 1 /o + 1 /i

Where f is the focal length, or the distance to the object and i the distance to the image

Red light

           1 / i = 1 / f - 1 / o

           1 / i_red = 1 / f_red - 1 / o

           1 / i_red = 1 / 19.57 - 1/30

           1 / i_red = 1,776 10-2

           i_red = 56.29 cm

Blue light

            1 / i_blue = 1 / f_blue - 1 / o

            1 / i_blue = 1 / 18.87 - 1/30

            1 / i_blue = 1,966 10-2

            i_blue = 50.863 cm

Now let's use the magnification ratio

             m = y ’/ h = - i / o

             y ’= - h i / o

Red Light

            y_red ’= - 5 56.29 / 30

            y_red ’= - 9.3816 cm

Light blue

            y_blue ’= 5 50,863 / 30

            y_blue ’= - 8.47716 cm

The ratio of the height of the two images is

            y_red ’/ y_blue’ = 9.3816 / 8.47716

            y_red / y_blue = 1,107

            y_red / y_blue = 1.11

The Earth and the Moon are attracted to each other by universal gravitation. The Earth is much more massive than is the Moon. Do
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Earth attract the Moon with a force that is greater.

Explanation:

According to the law of gravitation, the gravitational force between two masses is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Mathematically, F1 = Gm1m2/r²... 1

Let m1 be the mass of the earth and m2 be that of the moon

If the Earth is much more massive than is the Moon, the new force of attraction between them will become;

F2= G(2m1)m2/r²

F2 = 2Gm1m2/r² ... (2)

Dividing eqn 1 by 2 we have;

F1/F2 = (Gm1m2/r²)÷(2Gm1m2/r²)

F1/F2 = Gm1m2/r²×r²/2Gm1m2

F1/F2 = 1/2

F2=2F1

This shows that that the earth will attract the moon by a force 2times the initial force of the masses(i.e a much greater force)

1. The diagram shows a satellite traveling in uniform circular motion around the Earth.
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

M V R = constant      angular momentum is constant because  no forces act in the direction of V

Since M (mass) = constant

V R = constant

The force is directed along the gravitational force vector (towards the center of rotation)

A 1500-W electric heater is plugged into the outlet of a 120-V circuit that has a 20-A circuit breaker. You plug an electric hai
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

900 W.      

Explanation:

Given that

Electric heater 1500 W

We know that power P given as

P= V I

So the total power of 120 V and 20 A circuit

P = 120 x 20

P= 2400 W

So the power new load P'

P'= Total system power(P)- Electric heater load

P ' = 2400 - 1500

P'= 900 W

So the answer is 900 W.
