Glass Prism 38×38 Right Angle
Key Properties:
-
Shape: The prism has two right-angled triangular faces (90° angles), with the other two faces being rectangular, forming a right-angle prism.
-
Material: Usually made of optical glass providing clarity and minimal light distortion.
-
Dimensions: Each side of the triangular faces measures 38 mm, with a uniform thickness (height) often similar to the side lengths.
-
Transparency: Clear glass allows precise light manipulation.
-
Optical Properties: Often used to demonstrate light reflection, refraction, and for dividing light into different wavelengths.
Uses:
-
Reflection and Refraction: Used to reflect and refract light at specific angles, typically in experimental setups.
-
Optical Demonstrations: Commonly used in physics experiments demonstrating the principles of total internal reflection, bending light, and changing light paths.
-
Prism Spectroscopy: Employed in setups for spectral analysis and dispersing white light into its component colors.
