What is radius of curvature?
The radius of the sphere of which a lens surface or curved mirror forms a part is called the radius of curvature.
What is a line segment with one endpoint at the center of a circle and the other endpoint on the circle or the length of that segment?
The line segment is a radius.
What does a cone net look like?
A circle with a radius equal to the base of the cone. This circle will be tangential to a segment of a circle whose arc is the same length as the circle, and whose radius is the slant height of the cone.
A segment with end points of the circle?
if that line segment intersects the centre of the circle it is called a radius.
What is a segment whose endpoints are the center of a circle and a point on a circle?
This segment would be the radius of a circle.
What does curvature ratio mean in tubing?
Radius of curvature divided by tube diameter. To get the radius of curvature, imaging the bend in the tube is a segment of a circle, the radius of curvature is the radius of that circle.
What is the difference between Radius of curvature and centre of curvature?
The radius of curvature is the distance from the center of a curved surface or lens to a point on the surface, while the center of curvature is the point at the center of the sphere of which the curved surface is a part. In other words, the radius of curvature is the length of the line segment from the center to the surface, while the center of curvature is the actual point.

What is the formula to calculate the radius of a segment knowing the height of the segment and cord length?
Assume that the height of the segment is h, the chord length is c and the radius is r then: r2=(r-h)2+(c/2)2 (We join two radii to the two ends of the chord then extend the height of the segment to the center of the circle in which the segment is inscribed so this height will bisect the chord and you use the pythagorean theorem to find the radius)
What is the radius of curvature?
The radius of curvature of a circle, or an arc of a circle is the same as the radius of the circle.For a curve (other than a circle) the radius of curvature at a given point is obtained by finding a circular arc that best fits the curve around that point. The radius of that arc is the radius of curvature for the curve at that point.The radius of curvature for a straight line is infinite.
What is difference between curvature and radius of curvature?
Curvature is a general term to describe a graph. Like, concave or convex. Radius of curvature is more exact. If the curve in a 'small' section is allow to continue with the same curvature it would form a circle. that PRETEND circle would have an exact radius. That is the radius of curvature.
What is radius of curvature?
The radius of the sphere of which a lens surface or curved mirror forms a part is called the radius of curvature.
How do you find radius of curvature if focal length is given?
radius of curvature = 2Focal length
The radius of curvature is 10 ft and the height of the segment is 2 ft what is the length of the chord?
To find the length of the chord, you can use the formula for the length of the chord in a circle segment: Chord length = 2 * sqrt(r^2 - h^2) where r is the radius of curvature (10 ft) and h is the height of the segment (2 ft). Plugging in these values, you get Chord length = 2 * sqrt(10^2 - 2^2) = 2 * sqrt(96) = 2 * 4 * sqrt(6) = 8 * sqrt(6) ft.
How can find the radius of curvature?
There is a specific formula for finding the radius of a curvature, used often when one is measuring a mirror. The formula is: Radius of curvature = R =2*focal length.
What is Radius of curvature of a lens?
The radius of curvature of a lens is the distance between the center of the lens and its focal point. It is a measure of the curvature of the lens surface. A smaller radius of curvature indicates a more curved lens, while a larger radius indicates a flatter lens.
If the focal lenght of a concave mirror is 15 cm find the radius of curvature?
The radius of curvature and the focal length mean the same so the radius of curvature is also 15 cm.
