  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Thus a prism of 1 Δ would produce 1 cm visible displacement at 100 cm, or 1 meter. This can be represented mathematically as: = ⁡ where is the amount of prism correction in prism dioptres, and is the angle of deviation of the light.

  3. Esophoria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esophoria

    Esophoria is an eye condition involving inward deviation of the eye, usually due to extra-ocular muscle imbalance. It is a type of heterophoria. Cause. Causes include: Refractive errors; Divergence insufficiency; Convergence excess; this can be due to nerve, muscle, congenital or mechanical anomalies.

  4. Mathematics of cyclic redundancy checks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_cyclic...

    All two bit errors separated by a distance less than the order of the primitive polynomial which is a factor of the generator polynomial will be detected. The error polynomial in the two bit case is E ( x ) = x i + x k = x k ⋅ ( x i − k + 1 ) , i > k {\displaystyle E(x)=x^{i}+x^{k}=x^{k}\cdot (x^{i-k}+1),\;i>k} .

  5. Anisometropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisometropia

    Amblyopia. Anisometropia is a condition in which a person's eyes have substantially differing refractive power. [1] Generally, a difference in power of one diopter (1D) is the threshold for diagnosis of the condition . [2] [3] Patients may have up to 3D of anisometropia before the condition becomes clinically significant due to headache, eye ...

  6. Hagen–Poiseuille equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hagen–Poiseuille_equation

    This is exactly Ohm's law, where the resistance R = V / I is described by the formula R = 8 μ L n 2 π r 4 ( q ∗ ) 2 {\displaystyle R={\frac {8\mu L}{n^{2}\pi r^{4}\left(q^{*}\right)^{2}}}} . It follows that the resistance R is proportional to the length L of the resistor, which is true.

  7. Hypsometric equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypsometric_equation

    The corrected hypsometric equation follows: h = z 2 − z 1 = R ⋅ T v ¯ g ( 1 + A ) ⋅ ln ⁡ ( p 1 p 2 ) , {\displaystyle h=z_{2}-z_{1}={\frac {R\cdot {\overline {T_{v}}}}{g(1+A)}}\cdot \ln \left({\frac {p_{1}}{p_{2}}}\right),}

  8. Free-air gravity anomaly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-air_gravity_anomaly

    The free air correction is calculated from Newton's Law, as a rate of change of gravity with distance: g = G M R 2 d g d R = − 2 G M R 3 = − 2 g R {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}g&={\frac {GM}{R^{2}}}\\{\frac {dg}{dR}}&=-{\frac {2GM}{R^{3}}}=-{\frac {2g}{R}}\end{aligned}}}

  9. Dynkin's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynkin's_formula

    In mathematics — specifically, in stochastic analysis — Dynkin's formula is a theorem giving the expected value of any suitably smooth function applied to a Feller process at a stopping time. It may be seen as a stochastic generalization of the (second) fundamental theorem of calculus .

  10. 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.

  11. Elliptic cylindrical coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_cylindrical...

    Elliptic cylindrical coordinates are a three-dimensional orthogonal coordinate system that results from projecting the two-dimensional elliptic coordinate system in the perpendicular -direction. Hence, the coordinate surfaces are prisms of confocal ellipses and hyperbolae.
