angle of refraction

Consequently, so are the angle of refraction and the wave-vector.

Similarly, is the exit angle and its corresponding angle of refraction.

The angle of refraction places a minimum on the distance at which the refracted beam will first return to Earth.

They typically measure some angle of refraction or the critical angle for total internal reflection.

The angle of reflection and angle of refraction are other angles related to beams.

Different frequencies undergo different angles of refraction.

As refraction is based upon speed of light within the materials, the angle of refraction will vary with depth.

A special name is given to the angle of incidence that produces an angle of refraction of 90˚.

The amount of bending, or angle of refraction, of the light wave depends on how much the material slows down the light.

The angle of refraction of an electric field between media is related to the permittivity of each media:

This difference compensates for the smaller angle of refraction between the eye's cornea and the watery medium, as they have similar refractive indices.

To minimize aberration, the curvature is usually set so that the angle of incidence and the angle of refraction are equal.

The angle of refraction can be determined from the angle of incidence and the refractive indexes using Snell's law.

The angle between this ray and the normal is known as the angle of refraction, and it is given by Snell's Law.

These cells measure the distance of the image from a centerline and using the height of the chamber can determine the angle of refraction.

The measurement is based on the refraction of light in the process medium, i.e. the critical angle of refraction using a light source.

The law is also satisfied in metamaterials, which allow light to be bent "backward" at a negative angle of refraction with a negative refractive index.

Best, Dr. Topper Melissa, This is probably a lesson in refractive index and angles of refraction.

As in optics, a Snell's law exists: where is the angle of incidence and are the angles of refraction, and and are the solid velocities.

Part of the wave is transmitted and part is reflected, with the ratio depending on angle of incidence and the angle of refraction.

From Snell's law it can be seen that the angle of refraction of light in a prism depends on the refractive index of the prism material.

"We both admired the proportion that he says he found between the sine of the angle of incidence and the sine of the angle of refraction."

The lenses, which some unknown dwarven wizard had used to fashion the enchanted spectacles, just happened to have the right angle of refraction to improve Lodston's failing vision.

It was fitted and filled with looking-glasses at every angle of refraction, so that they looked like the hundred facets of one huge diamond, if one could get inside a diamond.

The shader uses Fresnel equations to simulate reflectance and transmittance of light passing through the dielectric interface, as well as using Snell's law to determine the angle of refraction.
