ATMOSPHERICAL REFRACTION. 217 … 500. The distance ofthe focus of a double-con-vex glass lens is the ra-dius of the sphere of itsconvexity. In this cut, it will be seen that theparallel rays A are refracted to a focusat C, by the double convex lens B, theconvexity of whose surfaces is justequal to the curve of the circle D. 501.…
