  2. Prentice position - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prentice_position

    The Prentice position. The Prentice position is an orientation of a prism, used in optics, optometry and ophthalmology. [1] In this position, named after the optician Charles F. Prentice, the prism is oriented such that light enters it at an angle of 90° to the first surface, so that the beam does not refract at that surface.

  3. Reticulocyte production index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reticulocyte_production_index

    The simplest method for correcting the reticulocyte count, to obtain a more accurate daily production index, is to divide the corrected count by a factor of 2 (or multiply with ½) whenever polychromasia (the presence of immature marrow reticulocytes or "shift" cells) is observed on the smear or the immature fraction on the automated counter is ...

  4. Šidák correction for t-test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Šidák_correction_for_t-test

    One of the application of Student's t-test is to test the location of one sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables.If we want to test the locations of multiple sequences of such variables, Šidák correction should be applied in order to calibrate the level of the Student's t-test.

  5. Prism (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_(optics)

    Prism spectacles with a single prism perform a relative displacement of the two eyes, thereby correcting eso-, exo, hyper- or hypotropia. In contrast, spectacles with prisms of equal power for both eyes, called yoked prisms (also: conjugate prisms, ambient lenses or performance glasses) shift the visual field of both eyes to the same extent. [5]

    Pace [6] in minutes per kilometre or mile vs. slope angle resulting from Naismith's rule [7] for basal speeds of 5 and 4 km / h. [n 1]The original Naismith's rule from 1892 says that one should allow one hour per three miles on the map and an additional hour per 2000 feet of ascent.

  7. List of trigonometric identities - Wikipedia

    Subtracting ⁡ from both sides and dividing by 2 by two yields the power-reduction formula for sine: ⁡ = (⁡ ()). The half-angle formula for sine can be obtained by replacing θ {\displaystyle \theta } with θ / 2 {\displaystyle \theta /2} and taking the square-root of both sides: sin ⁡ ( θ / 2 ) = ± ( 1 − cos ⁡ θ ) / 2 ...

  8. Eötvös effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eötvös_effect

    The mathematical derivation for the Eötvös effect for motion along the Equator explains the factor 2 in the first term of the Eötvös correction formula. What remains to be explained is the cosine factor. Because of its rotation, the Earth is not spherical in shape, there is an Equatorial bulge. The force of gravity is directed towards the ...
