How to pronounce “refractive” in English

Then they added another layer, this time out of carbon.It has a higher refractive index than tungsten for wavelengths of 4.48 nanometers.The x-rays hit the boundary and a little bit more reflects, but this time the phase is inverted or it's changed by half a wavelength.

The x-rays hit the boundary and a little bit more reflects, but this time the phase is inverted or it's changed by half a wavelength.This happens when any light moves from a lower refractive index to a higher one.Now, by the time this new reflected wave reaches the tungsten boundary, it has traveled another quarter of its wavelength for a half wavelength in total.

First, insulate around the fire with a low-mass, heat-resistant material.The objective of this is to create a refractive combustion chamber.The goal is not to heat the stove, but to heat the pot.

In India, only a couple of places-- at least, I know only one place where this work is going on, but it needs to be done, I think,So similarly, plasmas also have a refractive index, which is defined in this manner.

Coover showed the material to his coworker Fred Joyner, but gave him strict instructions.I told him, look, don't take a refractive index of this material.If you do, you're going to wreck the refractometer.

Some of it goes through and part reflects back.How much gets reflected depends on things like the angle, the light's polarization, and most importantly for us, the difference between the refractive indicesof the two media.

And a historian of science John-Pierre Poirier explains that a group of assistants were in charge of adjusting and moving the machine, while four scientists wearing wigsand dark glasses-- this is a complete aside that's probably really unprofessional, but I don't understand having this kind of like refractivesetup and wanting to wear a wig, but that's just me.
