Is the parabola an optical illusion?
No, it is not an optical illusion.
How do you find the endpoints of a parabola when you have the function of the line?
A parabola has no endpoints: it extends to infinity.A parabola has no endpoints: it extends to infinity.A parabola has no endpoints: it extends to infinity.A parabola has no endpoints: it extends to infinity.
Is a parabola the same as a parabolic curve?
No. If you tilt a parabola, you will still have a parabolic curve but it will no longer be a parabola.
What is the parabola effect?
what are the effects of the sign a and n to the parabola
What are different parts of the parabola?
A parabola is a single curve: it does not have separate parts.
Is the parabola an optical illusion?
No, it is not an optical illusion.
What is the optical instruments industry?
This category covers establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing instruments and apparatus that measure an optical property
What is the optical property of a container of undeveloped roll of film?

Parabola is the point at which the parabola is at its lowest or highest point?
A parabola is NOT a point, it is the whole curve.
The maximum or minimum of a parabola depending on whether the parabola opens up or down?
A parabola opening up has a minimum, while a parabola opening down has a maximum.
What is the parabola effect?
what are the effects of the sign a and n to the parabola
Which of the following is not a property of optical telescopes?
Ability to detect radio waves is not a property of optical telescopes. Optical telescopes are designed to detect and focus visible light to form images of distant objects in space. Radio telescopes, on the other hand, are specifically designed to detect and study radio waves emitted by celestial objects.
What is difference between optical rotation and specific optical rotation?
Optical rotation is the turning plane of linearly polarized light as it travels through certain materials. Specific rotation is the property of a chemical compound as the change in orientation of a plane of light.
What is the diameter of a parabola?
It is the bisector of any 2 parallel chords drawn to the parabola. It is always parallel to the axis of the parabola.
What is the name of the point you use to define a parabola?
All of the points on a parabola define a parabola. However, the vertex is the point in which the y value is only used for one point on the parabola.
