I ask rhetorically since i know there is no experiment to prove what they claim
Explain what you mean by "refract downwards in air"
yeah lots of loaded questions and ad hom
He's a sophist, no suprise
a person who reasons with clever but fallacious arguments.
I'm gonna head out now you guys have fun
“standard refraction” implies downward refraction. not only do you not have an experiment to prove this, but you contradict the equation by implying that it can actually refract in the opposite of what is “standard” and taken for granted in every equation. by all means, continue projecting sophistry onto me
As much as I try I cannot find a standard refraction definition, do you mind linking a source
I know you've already run away from our debate but in the end you've made no substantial claims besides using a strawman to argue and the consistent ad homs. So mate, you're a sophist.
can’t wait for more words that aren’t A)an experiment or B)an explanation for why you just contradicted yourself
you think i care if you write more essays about how you’ve won? go ahead, yours in the only ego that needs to do such vain things
link source please
@mineyful 7/6*R
and i'm still trying to find out your arguemnt
what does that even mean
Not writing essays, merely pointing out your fallacious style of debate. Another ego remark too, unsurprisingly.
It's the molar mass constant?
meta discussion, thats what you’re doing

What is 7/6R
where is it coming from
what is its name
and how did you derive it
Atmospheric refraction
look up the term “standard atmospheric refraction” and don’t waste time in a discussion you’re not qualified to have. i already know you don’t have an experiment, i just wanted to see how long you’d stroke your egos
apparently for hours
It's an approximation on the perceived effects of refraction on earths apparent curvature.
I gave you a bunch of tries so it seems like you're not up for a semi-serious debate
i'm heading off now
If I had a dollar for every ego comment I could buy lunch
you’ll write essays about how you’ve won a debate but never prove the assertion. as far as I’m concerned, finish your thesis. get the last word. find your climax so you can sleep at night. goodbye
Atmospheric refraction is the deviation of light or other electromagnetic wave from a straight line as it passes through the atmosphere due to the variation in air density as a function of height.
alright gn
@Morning Dew lol
I like your ad homs
They're pretty unique
1.) No idea if it's reliable
2.) No idea if author is qualified
3.) No way to check if it is right
