An illustration from Mathematical and physical papers, 1880, leaf 159
he effect of the velocity p. It is easy to see that, as far as regards this resolved part ofthe velocity of the ether, the directions of the refracted andreflected waves will be the same as if the ether were at rest.Let BAG (fig. 1) be the intersection of the refracting surfaceand the plane P; DAE… … Draw Gg, Hh perpendicular to the plane P, and in the directionof the resolved part p of the velocity of the ether, and Ff in theopposite direction; and take Ff : Hh : FA ;: p ; >L : V, and Gg = Ff, and join A with / g and h. Then fA, Ag, Ah will be the di-rections of the incident, reflected and…
