The angle θ = ε + 90° is used for a mathematical description in a spherical coordinate system. For the approximation of a flat earth – which is usual for airborne radar with short to medium range – the grazing angle and the depression angle can be assumed to be equal γ = ε and the incident angle is β = 180° – θ.
The angle of the intersection with the green plane is the red plane's apparent dip in the northward direction . When measuring or describing the attitude of an inclined feature, two quantities are needed. The angle the slope descends, or dip, and the direction of descent, which can be represented by strike or dip direction. [4]
A depression position finder measured the range to a distant target (such as a ship) by solving a right triangle in which the short side was the height of the instrument above mean low water; one angle was the constant right angle between the short side and the plane of the ocean, and the second angle was the depression angle from the horizontal of the instrument as it sighted down from a fire ...
Photos of America during the Great Depression, much like the mood of the country, are often bleak, available only in black and white -- until now. Gorgeous color photos from the Great Depression ...
Determining the angle of the Earth's magnetic field with respect to the horizontal plane. Showing a deviation from the true vertical or horizontal. Surveying, to measure an angle of inclination or elevation. Alerting an equipment operator that it may tip over. Measuring angles of elevation, slope, or incline, e.g. of an embankment.
The Great Depression was the worst economic crisis in US history. More than 15 million Americans were left jobless and unemployment reached 25%. 25 vintage photos show how desperate and desolate ...
Soaking your shower head in vinegar overnight. Grandma isn't completely wrong here. However, we'd like to offer a modification to the process of cleaning your shower head with vinegar.
