  2. Spherometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherometer

    A spherometer is an instrument used for the precise measurement of the radius of curvature of a curved surface. Originally, these instruments were primarily used by opticians to measure the curvature of the surface of a lens .

  3. Lens clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lens_clock

    Lens clock. A lens clock is a mechanical dial indicator that is used to measure the dioptric power of a lens.It is a specialized version of a spherometer.A lens clock measures the curvature of a surface, but gives the result as an optical power in diopters, assuming the lens is made of a material with a particular refractive index.

    Now you should have a nice circle, with a solid black outline that is completely closed. If you have a Pac-Man shape or an arc, simply click the "make whole" button in the upper toolbar. Changing object fill colours using HSV sliders. Adding eyes. Now for the next step, create a smaller circle and then right click its outline (on Mac, use apple ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sagitta_(geometry)

    Visualization of the sagitta. In geometry, the sagitta (sometimes abbreviated as sag [1]) of a circular arc is the distance from the midpoint of the arc to the midpoint of its chord. [2]

  6. Spirograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spirograph

    Spirograph is a geometric drawing device that produces mathematical roulette curves of the variety technically known as hypotrochoids and epitrochoids.The well-known toy version was developed by British engineer Denys Fisher and first sold in 1965.

  7. Radius gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radius_gauge

    Two types of radius gauges. A radius gauge, also known as a fillet gauge, [1] is a tool used to measure the radius of an object. [2]Radius gauges require a bright light behind the object to be measured.

  8. Spherical aberration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_aberration

    On top is a depiction of a perfect lens without spherical aberration: all incoming rays are focused in the focal point. The bottom example depicts a real lens with spherical surfaces, which produces spherical aberration: The different rays do not meet after the lens in one focal point.

  9. Straightedge and compass construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straightedge_and_compass...

    If we draw both circles, two new points are created at their intersections. Drawing lines between the two original points and one of these new points completes the construction of an equilateral triangle. Therefore, in any geometric problem we have an initial set of symbols (points and lines), an algorithm, and some results.
