The further the aperture is from the optical axis of the lens, the more to the side of the lens the incident light falls. The further the light falls from the optical axis, the greater the effects of chromatic aberration. This is because different wavelengths of light have different refractive indices (dispersion). Because of Snell's Law, n1sintheta1=n2sintheta2, the greater the angle of incidence, the more pronounced the effects of the difference in refractive indices. Spherical aberration further enhances the chromatic dispersion.

How does gravity keep you strong?

It greatens your resistance to the pulling force of the Earth, with causes muscle cells to grow in size. This is made evident by low gravity situations on spacecraft; the low resistance causes the people to lower in muscle mass, therefore constant exercise is needed to maintain ones' own body.


Is the force of gravity always directly vertical?

Define "vertical". If "vertical" means "the direction indicated by a plumb bob," it should be self-evident that yes, gravity is directly vertical. If "vertical" means "in the direction of a line passing through the point in question and the center of the Earth", then not necessarily. On the side of a mountain, the direction of gravity will be affected by the mass of the mountain. However, this is a teeny tiny effect compared to the mass of the Earth as a whole.


Whose sound frequency is moremen or women?

From day to day experience it is evident that a woman's voice is more shriller i.e. it has a higher pitch. Men's voice is flat or grave i.e. it has a lower pitch. A sound( here voice) corresponding to higher pitch is of higher frequency while a sound of lower pitch corresponds to lower frequency. It is clear from this that sound frequency of women is moreNote: the pitch of a sound depends on frequency of vibrations but is different from it, as frequency is a measurable quantity while pitch is a sensation.

Why is chromatic aberration more evident from some positions of the aperture?

because refraction is greater for shorter wavelengths. for a narrow aperture, you may not notice the difference. but for wide aperture, you will, because you are involving more of its curvature. check what a prism does, you'll see the same effect.

What philosophical positions are evident in 'Oedipus Rex'?

Fate versus free will are philosophical positions that are evident in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. -- 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the position of fate is evidenced by the relentless realization of the dreadful fate of killing a father and marrying a mother. It also is manifest in the insights of Teiresias the blind prophet and in some of the words of Theban King Oedipus. But at the same time, the position of free will is represented by Oedipus as well as his wife Jocasta and her first husband Laius. All three make concerted efforts to sabotage fate and subvert divine will.
