Example sentences (10)

Another, more accurate, measurement of the speed of light was performed in Europe by Hippolyte Fizeau in 1849.

Fizeau directed a beam of light at a mirror several kilometers away.

Fizeau found that at a certain rate of rotation, the beam would pass through one gap in the wheel on the way out and the next gap on the way back.

In 1850, Hippolyte Fizeau and Léon Foucault measured the speed of light in water and find that it is slower than in air, in support of the wave model of light.

It achieved accuracy of ±11 km/s Diagram of the Fizeau apparatus A method of measuring the speed of light is to measure the time needed for light to travel to a mirror at a known distance and back.

The effect is sometimes called the "Doppler–Fizeau effect".

The first Doppler redshift was described by French physicist Hippolyte Fizeau in 1848, who pointed to the shift in spectral lines seen in stars as being due to the Doppler effect.
