Chromatic aberration in lenses is a result of which wave property of light?

Physics
1 answer:
Brilliant_brown [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Dispersion

Explanation:

Chromatic aberration refers to the failure of a lenses to focus all the wavelengths or colours in white light at the same point. This is due to dispersion of light in glass. The refractive index of the lenses elements varies with different wavelengths of light. The different colours of white light will travel at different speeds through the lens hence they cannot all be focused at the same point. Dispersion results from the refraction of the various wavelengths of light to varying degrees.

A physics instructor wants to project a spectrum of visible-light colors from 400 nm to 700 nm as part of a classroom demonstrat
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

  Dr = 263 10⁻⁶ m

Explanation:

The diffraction pattern for constructive interference is described by

        a sin θ = m λ

in this it indicates that the order of diffraction is m = 1

Let's use a direct proportion rule to find the separation of two slits. If there are 600 lines in 1 me, what is the distance between 2 slits

   a = 2 lines 1/600

   a = 2/600

    a = 3.33 10⁻³ mm = 3.33 10⁻⁴ cm

let's use trigonometry

      tan θ = y / L

as the measured angles are small

      tan θ = sin θ / cos θ sin θ

      sin θ = y / L

we substitute

     a  y/L = λ

     y = λ L / a

for λ = 400 10-9 m

      I = 400 10⁻⁹ 2.9 / 3.33 10⁻³

      i = 346.89 10⁻⁶ m

f

or λ = 700 nm

        y_f = 700 10⁻⁻⁹ 2.9 / 3.33 10⁻³

        y_f = 609.609 10⁻⁶ m

the separation of this spectrum

        Δr = v_f - i

        Dr = (609.609 - 346)  10 ⁻⁶

        Dr = 263 10⁻⁶ m

Why is it important to be able to trace the pole connection on a meter back to the same type of pole at the electrical source?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

Explanation:

A grounded wire is sometimes strung along the tops of the towers to provide lightning protection.

In areas where the neutral is grounded or earthed, it is essential to endure that the neutral and the live or hot wires are not confused for each other.

When this happens, the fuses on the transformer will not operate unless the fault is very close to the transformer. The fuses in the consumer's intake box, will not operate.
