YP Electric Field simulates up to 26 indicate charges (located in the same aeroplane) and draws the lines of drive, the equipotential lines and the electric arena vectors in the area surrounding the electric charges. The user derriere move the charges and chang
Science - YP Refraction 1.0 By Yves Pelletier
YP Refraction is a cock to see all roughly the refraction of perch (Snell's law) in geometrical optics. The program provides a laser source that nates be moved around a prism. Six different prisms are available: a uncomplicated frontier between two media of different index of refraction, a semicircular prism, feather prism, a rectangular prism, two triangular prisms. The user nates change the indices of refraction. The normal at each point of incidence, the angle of incidence, the angle of refraction, the indices of refraction and the direction of propagation are displayed. The obtained diagram may be printed, copied to the clipboard, or saved as a PICT file. |
