  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    A prism of power 1 Δ would produce 1 unit of displacement for an object held 100 units from the prism. [2] Thus a prism of 1 Δ would produce 1 cm visible displacement at 100 cm, or 1 metre. 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.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formula_One_engines

    Until the mid-1980s Formula One engines were limited to around 12,000 rpm due to the traditional metal springs used to close the valves. The speed required to close the valves at a higher rpm called for ever stiffer springs, which increased the power required to drive the camshaft to open the valves, to the point where the loss nearly offset the power gain through the increase in rpm.
