When a ray of light...passes out of one medium into another, as the angle pf incidence increases, the angle qf deviation also ip. creases. J2. To find the least velocity, with...

...What appearance have the moons or jplanets, when their disks are magnified by the aid of a telescope ? When a ray of light passes out of one medium into another, is it turned out of its former course ? If it does, how can it be proved ? With what is the earth surrounded...

...is the same for all distances of the eye. 183* 145. Explain the experiments by which it appears that when a ray of light passes out of one medium into another, the sine of incidence is to the sine of refraction in a given ratio ; and that if the refracted ray...

...line in which these planes intersect is the edge of the prism. 70. When a ray of light is refracted out of one medium into another, as the angle of incidence increases the deviation also increases. Let 0 0' be the angles of incidence and refraction of the ray ; .'. sin 0...

...refracted rays. is turned back into the medium in which it was moving, it is said to be reflected. 7. When a ray of light passes out of one medium into another, and has its direction changed at the common surface of the two media, it is said to be refracted. 8....

...ratio to each other, whatever the obliquity may be. This is precisely the same thing as saying, that when a ray of light passes out of one medium into another, the sine« of the angles of incidence and refraction, always p1*" serve a constant ratio for every...

When a ray of light passes out of one medium into...increases, the angle of deviation also increases. Let 0 be the angle of incidence, 0' .................. refraction, then the deviation = 0 — <p'....

...Rays on plane Surfaces. — The Prism. — Action of the Prism on a Ray. — The Multiplying- Glass. WHEN a ray of light passes out of one medium into another of a different density, its rectilinear progress is disturbed, and it bends into a new path. This phenomenon...

When a ray of light passes out of one medium into...incidence increases the angle of deviation also increases. 9. A ray of light is refracted through a prism in a plane perpendicular to its edge, find the direction...

...2, 1, and concave to the surface of the earth. 81. VARIATION OF REFRACTION IN RESPECT TO ALTITUDE. When a ray of light passes out of one medium into another, the more obliquely it strikes the surface of the second medium the more it is refracted, and if it...
