  2. Dioptre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dioptre

    A dioptre ( British spelling) or diopter ( American spelling ), symbol dpt, is a unit of measurement with dimension of reciprocal length, equivalent to one reciprocal metre, 1 dpt = 1 m−1. It is normally used to express the optical power of a lens or curved mirror, which is a physical quantity equal to the reciprocal of the focal length ...

  3. 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.

    (p = 2 − GDD, p = 3 − TOD, p = 4 − FOD, p = 5 − FiOD, p = 6 − SiOD, p = 7 − SeOD, p = 8 − EOD, p = 9 − NOD, p = 10 − TeOD) It is possible to use prisms rather than gratings as dispersive elements, as in Figure 4.

  6. Vertex distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex_distance

    The formula for vertex correction is = (), where F c is the power corrected for vertex distance, F is the original lens power, and x is the change in vertex distance in meters.

  7. 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. Three-point flexural test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-point_flexural_test

    The three-point bending flexural test provides values for the modulus of elasticity in bending , flexural stress , flexural strain and the flexural stress–strain response of the material. This test is performed on a universal testing machine (tensile testing machine or tensile tester) with a three-point or four-point bend fixture.

    Linearity. The Schrödinger equation is a linear differential equation, meaning that if two state vectors and are solutions, then so is any linear combination. of the two state vectors where a and b are any complex numbers. [13] : 25 Moreover, the sum can be extended for any number of state vectors.
