Difference between Horizon and Optics

Horizon vs. Optics

The horizon or skyline is the apparent line that separates earth from sky, the line that divides all visible directions into two categories: those that intersect the Earth's surface, and those that do not. Optics is the branch of physics which involves the behaviour and properties of light, including its interactions with matter and the construction of instruments that use or detect it.

Similarities between Horizon and Optics

Horizon and Optics have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Mirage, Perspective (graphical), Refraction, Refractive index, Sky.

Mirage

A mirage is a naturally occurring optical phenomenon in which light rays bend to produce a displaced image of distant objects or the sky.

Perspective (graphical)

Perspective (from perspicere "to see through") in the graphic arts is an approximate representation, generally on a flat surface (such as paper), of an image as it is seen by the eye.

Refraction

Refraction is the change in direction of wave propagation due to a change in its transmission medium.

Refractive index

In optics, the refractive index or index of refraction of a material is a dimensionless number that describes how light propagates through that medium.
