We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

LENSES AND MIRRORS [20 It is thus evident thai any unnecessary distance of the light source to collector involves heavy light loss. Limitations Governing Distance (119) Limitations vary with the character of the light source. With mazda it is almost wholly optical, the only other limiting factor being the diameter <>f the mazda lamp globe, which itself prevents the light source (filament) from being advanced nearer to the collector lens by more than half its diameter. Figure 42 The optic requirements for the distance from the light source to the collector demand the beam of light to spread sufficiently to form a "spot" of sufficient diameter at the required distance from the converging lens to the projector aperture. As the light source is brought nearer the collector lens of a condenser, or the surface of a curved mirror, such as is used in projection, the light beam on the opposite side of the condenser or in front of the mirror or condenser converging lens is increased in diameter.
