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.

What is the energy of a single photon of visible light with a wavelength of 500.0 nm? 1 nm=10^−9 m
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

3.97×10^−19 J

From the planks equation

E=hv

V= c/ wave length

V= 3×10^8/500×10^-9

=6×10^14

E= hv

6.63×10^-34×6×10^14

= 3.97×10^−19 J

At a fixed depth within a fluid at rest, the pressure pushing upward is
earnstyle [38]

Answer: E) A) salt water.

Explanation:

E) In equilibrium, pressure exerts equally in all directions, so for a given depth, the pressure is the same for all points located at the same depth, and it can be written as follows:

p = p₀ + ρ.g.h, where p₀ = atmospheric pressure, ρ=fluid density, h=depth from the surface.

A) The buoyant force, as discovered by Archimedes, is an upward force, that opposes to the weight of an object (as it is always downward), and is equal to the weight of the volume of the liquid that the object removes, which means that is proportional to the density of the liquid.

As salt water is denser than fresh water, the buoyant force exerted by the salt water is always greater than the one produced by the fresh water, so objects will float more easily in salt water than in fresh water.

In the limit, it is possible that one object float in salt water and sink in fresh water.

A force of 5.00 N to the left causes a 1.35 kg book to have a net acceleration of 0.76 m/s2 to the left. What is the frictional
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

4.0 N

Explanation:

Sum the forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

F − Fr = ma

Fr = F − ma

Fr = 5.00 N − (1.35 kg) (0.76 m/s²)

Fr = 4.0 N

9. A balloon is filled with 1000 cm3 of a gas weighing 1000 g. Will it rise or fall when it is released?
torisob [31]

We can calculate the density of the balloon as follows:

\rho=\frac{mass}{volume}=\frac{1000g}{1000cm^3}=\frac{1g}{cm^3}

Therefore, the balloon will fall

Since the density of air is about 0.00123 g/cm^3 , the balloon is much more dense than the surrounding air. As a result, the balloon weighs more than the air that it displaces so the balloon will fall.
