    This gives an angular correction ⁡ = / ≈ 0.000099364 rad = 20.49539 sec, which can be solved to give = / = ≈ 0.000099365 rad = 20.49559 sec, very nearly the same as the aberrational correction (here is in radian and not in arcsecond).

  3. Cunningham correction factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cunningham_correction_factor

    In fluid dynamics, the Cunningham correction factor, or Cunningham slip correction factor (denoted C), is used to account for non-continuum effects when calculating the drag on small particles. The derivation of Stokes' law , which is used to calculate the drag force on small particles, assumes a no-slip condition which is no longer correct at ...

    The 2025 FIA Formula One World Championship is a planned motor racing championship for Formula One cars which will be the 76th running of the Formula One World Championship. It is recognised by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), the governing body of international motorsport , as the highest class of competition for open ...

  5. Prismatic compass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prismatic_compass

    Soldier using a prismatic compass to get an azimuth. A prismatic compass is a navigation and surveying instrument which is extensively used to find out the bearing of the traversing and included angles between them, waypoints (an endpoint of the course) and direction. [1]

  6. 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.

  7. Wedge prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wedge_prism

    The wedge prism is a prism with a shallow angle between its input and output surfaces. This angle is usually 3 degrees or less. Refraction at the surfaces causes the prism to deflect light by a fixed angle. When viewing a scene through such a prism, objects will appear to be offset by an amount that varies with their distance from the prism.

  8. False discovery rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_discovery_rate

    Using MFDR and formulas above, an adjusted MFDR (or AFDR) is the minimum of the mean for m dependent tests, i.e., () = (+) [⁡ +] +. Another way to address dependence is by bootstrapping and rerandomization.

  9. Newton's law of universal gravitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_law_of_universal...

    [8]: 28 Newton's original formula was: where the symbol means "is proportional to". To make this into an equal-sided formula or equation, there needed to be a multiplying factor or constant that would give the correct force of gravity no matter the value of the masses or distance between them (the gravitational constant).
