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.

The direction in which a chemical reaction occurs is represented by an ___
Ipatiy [6.2K]

In a reversible reaction, both forward and reverse directions of the reaction generally occur at the same time. While reactants are reacting to produce products, products are reacting to produce reactants. Often, a point is reached at which forward and reverse directions of the reaction occur at the same rate.

Kevin decides to soup up his car by replacing the car's wheels with ones that have 1.4 times the diameter of the original wheels
True [87]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

Given that Kevin decides to soup up his car by replacing the car's wheels with ones that have 1.4 times the diameter of the original wheels. Note that the speedometer in a car is calibrated based on the tire's diameter and on the distance the tire covers in each revolution. (a) Will the reading of the speedometer change ?

Considering the formula

V = wr

Where

V = linear speed

W = angular speed

r = radius of the wheel.

But W = 2πrf

Where the the 2 and pi are constant. The radius of the first wheel will be small but counter balance with the larger frequency.

While the radius of the second wheel may be large but it will be of a small frequency.

We can therefore conclude that the reading on the speedometer will not change. Because speedometer will read the linear speed V.

Krista is playing tennis at the park. When the tennis ball flies toward her, Krista hits the ball with her racket, which causes
xenn [34]

Answer:

B. When the racket hits the tennis ball with a force, the tennis ball applies an equal but opposite force to the racket.

Explanation:

According to the Newton's third law of motion every action has equal and opposite reaction. So, when the force is applied by the racket on the ball then the ball also applies an equal intensity of force in the opposite direction on the racket. It is just that the the force on the racket is absorbed by the player holding it.

ELEN [110]

Remember that the total velocity of the motion is the vector sum of the velocity you would have in still water and the stream. Always place the vectors carefully to be able to come up with an accurate sum vector.
