Answer:

increasing focal length

Explanation:

As we know that white light consist of seven colors of light which all have different wavelength. Since the focal length of lens also depends wavelength of light as as we increase the wavelength then the focal length will decrease for that color.

So here when while light incident on lens then its seven components will converge at different positions. This is known as chromatic aberration.

Now we can compensate the effect of chromatic aberration just by adjusting the focal length so that the colors will converge not near the lens after refraction.

So in Early telescope the focal length is increased so that the effect of chromatic aberration is minimized.

a water-balloon launcher with mass 4 kg fires a 0.5 kg balloon with a velocity of 3 m/s to the east. what is the recoil velocity
kotykmax [81]
I think we will use the law of conservation of linear momentum;
M1V1 = M2V2
M1 =  4 kg (mass of the water balloon launcher)
V1=?
M2= 0.5 kg ( mass of the balloon)
V2 = 3 m/s

Therefore; 4 V1 = 0.5 × 3
                   4V1= 1.5
                     V1= 1.5/4
                          = 0.375 m/s

For the circuit in the previous part, with the frequency set at 1 hz, what happens if the inductance of the inductor is increase
lubasha [3.4K]
The relationship between inductance and frequency can be clearly described using the following equation of inductive reactance:

Xl = 2*pi*f*L ; simplifying:

L = Xl / 2*pi*f

Therefore, as what we saw, inductance and frequency are inversely proportional. To add up, when inductance increases the frequency would decrease.
