Barometric Pressure given Group Refractive Index

Go Barometric Pressure = ((Group Refractive Index-1)+(((11.27*10^-6*Partial Pressure of Water Vapour)/(273.15+Temperature in Celsius))))*((273.15+Temperature in Celsius)/(0.269578*(Group Refractive Index for Standard Condition-1)))

Group Refractive Index if Temperature and Humidity are different from Standard Values

Go Group Refractive Index = 1+((0.269578*(Group Refractive Index for Standard Condition-1)*Barometric Pressure)/(273.15+Temperature in Celsius))-((11.27/(273.15+Temperature in Celsius))*10^-6*Partial Pressure of Water Vapour)

IUCG Formula for Refractive Index

Go Group Refractive Index = 1+(0.000077624*Barometric Pressure/(273.15+Temperature in Celsius))-(((12.924/(273.15+Temperature in Celsius))+(371900/(273.15+Temperature in Celsius)^2))*10^-6*Partial Pressure of Water Vapour)

Essen and Froome Formula for Group Refractive Index

Go Group Refractive Index = 1+(77.624*Barometric Pressure*10^-6/(273.15+Temperature in Celsius))+((0.372/(273.15+Temperature in Celsius)^2)-(12.92*10^-6/(273.15+Temperature in Celsius)))*Partial Pressure of Water Vapour

Overall Standard Error

Go Overall Standard Error = sqrt(Standard Error e^2+(Distance Traveled*Standard Error p*10^-6)^2)

Corrected Slope Distance for Refractive Index

Go Corrected Slope = (Standard Refractive Index/Refractive Index)*Measured Distance

Group Refractive Index at Standard Conditions

Go Group Refractive Index for Standard Condition = 1+(287.604+(4.8864/Wavelength^2)+(0.068/Wavelength^4))*10^-6

Temperature Difference given Partial Pressure

Go Temperature Change = (Saturated Vapor Pressure of Water-Partial Pressure of Water Vapour)/0.7

Partial Pressure of Water Vapour when Temperature Effects are Considered

Go Partial Pressure of Water Vapour = Saturated Vapor Pressure of Water-0.7*Temperature Change

Wave Velocity in Medium

Go Wave Velocity = Velocity in Vacuum/Refractive Index

Wave Velocity in Vacuum

Go Velocity in Vacuum = Wave Velocity*Refractive Index

Wave Velocity in Vacuum Formula

Velocity in Vacuum = Wave Velocity*Refractive Index
V₀ = V*RI

What types of Errors can be Corrected in an EDM System?

Common errors that can be corrected in an EDM system include typos, misspellings, incorrect dates, inaccurate figures, missing information, and other data entry errors.

Why are EDM Corrections Important?

EDM corrections are important because they help ensure that the data in an EDM system is reliable and trustworthy, which is critical for making informed business decisions.

How to Calculate Wave Velocity in Vacuum?

Wave Velocity in Vacuum calculator uses Velocity in Vacuum = Wave Velocity*Refractive Index to calculate the Velocity in Vacuum, The Wave Velocity in Vacuum formula is defined as the velocity of the wave which travels in a vacuum. A vacuum is a space devoid of matter. The word stems from the Latin adjective 'vacuus' for "vacant" or "void". Velocity in Vacuum is denoted by V₀ symbol.
