Description: I used simple geometry to calculate the magnitude of the real image inside the camera obscura. For an introduction look at the goch's project "CameraObscura". Thanks to goch for the idea. Thanks to greenflash, who made the music "The Entertainer" by Scott Joplin.
Plastic protractor
By: nevit
Views: 58 | LoveIts: 7
Description: Tension lines in plastic protractor seen under cross polarized light. When a ray of plane polarised light is passed through a photoelastic material, it gets resolved along the two principal stress directions and each of these components experiences different refractive indices. The difference in the ... show more

Description: related to a science project thing btw. adjust the offset sliders and press space. then move the mouse. it shows how a parabolic reflecting antenna dish thingy is innacurate in its reflection with different offsets from its focus. sequel to the other one
3d Axis Rotation
By: wimerrill
Views: 33 | LoveIts: 1
Description: This is a simple x-axis rotation program, where it redraws the x-axis based on the angle you are viewing it at. Left arrow: turn to the left Right arrow: turn to the right The formula used by the project is y = x * sin(theta), where y is the percieved length, x is the length, and theta is the view ... show more

mirror equation
By: stickmanstan
Views: 12 | LoveIts: 1
Description: This is a simulation of light coming from a single point on an object and creating an image (real or virtual) in a concave mirror. The three rays used in the diagram follow the rules for light encountering a concave mirror. 1.) Light rays travelling parallel along the principle axis reflect through ... show more
