A paperweight, perfect! lol, thanks for the help though, good to know that the apparatus is as useless as I thought. Just needed to verify. The fact that the umbrella was included in addition to the cloth itself made me begin to wonder, now I can confirm.thanks.

Ahhh trigs. Length can be measured more accurately than angles. This explains the glass block, instant right angled triangle. Thank you man

But if we had to include those things: voltmeter,ammeter etc. where would they be placed, what would be their use?

But what exactly do we use to measure the angle of refraction? It's going to be such a small angle difference that a protractor can't help. Yeah,with a prism it would be easy but they say that you have a rectangular glass block so they clearly want you to use it.

Homework Statement I have to design an experiment to determine the difference in refractive indices for different colors. Assume you have : color filters,glass block Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution I want to do it buy shining a white laser light through...

Homework Statement The individual threads in a cloth are very close together. Design an experiment to investigate how the rate at which water passes through the material depends on the separation of the individual threads in the material. Available equipment...
