Significance Of The Sagnac Effect, Pal R. Molnar Jan 2001

Significance Of The Sagnac Effect, Pal R. Molnar

Pal R. Molnar

During the historical development, the notions of electrodynamics and the theory light have become complicated complexes of concepts [1]. And what is more, nowadays they are wholly confused. The laws of electrodynamics in present form are not valid in rotating and deforming systems [2]. These turbulent notion-complexes -of which inadequacy to the inner connections are verified by experiments, measurements results, as well as certain electrodynamical states and processes- have to be broken open, disintegrated, then disjoined. Henceforth, we must search those genuine, pure and simple electrodynamical ideas, which can already join in the immanent natural well and adequate manner. Consequently, …

Why Magnification Works, Terry L. Smith, Jay S. Huebner

Terry L. Smith

The simplest way to magnify the view of a small object is to bring the object closer to the eye, and of course science teachers know about magnifying glasses, telescopes, and microscopes.But why magnification works seems intuitive and is not usually explained to our students. We present here a few ideas on magnification that we use in our classroom and some general information on vision that we hope will be helpful to other teachers.
