Yep, I didn't want to mess with drag as the shape of the object isn't obvious, approximating Reynolds numbers, factoring the speed - pain in the neck.
I might eventually put it into a vacuum chamber just to approximate damping without air resistance.
Thank you @Dale and @jrmichler! Will be...
Hi,
I need something that would measure vibrations along an axis, so instead of buying a bunch of accelerometers I thought I’d quickly make smth myself. I’m majoring in engineering and not physics, so while I have no problems with the construction, I’m kind of stuck with the physics aspect.
I...
Hi,
I am trying to create an HUD display - basically create a virtual image at infinity and look at it. I have two plano-convex lenses; the distance between them is the sum of their focal lengths; my object is therefore imaged at infinity. Here is the schematics that I'm pretty much trying to...
My photodiodes are flat though, so I suppose that they too are proportional to the angle of incidence, right?
And I just wanted to thank everybody for helping me! Thank you!
solar cell voltage angle of incidence
photodiode voltage angle
different variations of these.
I couldn't find anything that would give the relationship between the voltage output and the angle of incidence.
Hi,
I'm trying to figure out how the angle of incidence will affect the voltage output of a photodiode. The obvious answer that comes to my mind is that the voltage output should be proportional to the cos(α), where α is the angle of incidence of light. However, I couldn't find any...
