Welcome to the largest Spanish educational and research project on the Internet. This open and editable dictionary aims to offer a tool where, on the one hand, users broaden knowledge about the different meanings that each of the words and expressions of Spanish can adopt. And, on the other hand, give the same community the ability to expand the database with new words, unknown or unregistered, or expand the different meanings that can adopt the existing words. For identical words and according to which country of the world we move, it is very frequent to find completely different uses, that is why, once the official definition is mentioned, the dictionary allows users to expand it with new meanings or nuances. In short, a dictionary edited by users and for users. Daily among all the meanings uploaded by users will select one of them as word, expression or theme of the day. This meaning will appear on the home page just after this presentation for at least 24 hours. Finally, we have made the project extensible to words from other languages ??or disciplines, you can access these dictionaries through the drop-down that appears next to the search box and the operation is identical to the main dictionary. Hoping that the use of the dictionary is to his liking we say goodbye.
Sincerely,
Spanish Working Group

- antónimo de índice de refracción
3
Antonym of refractive index Moving light has two indices that determine its exit angle when it comes into contact with a surface. In this sense we could, very far-fetchedly, consider antonyms refraction and reflection, and, in turn, refractive and reflection indices. The refractive index is the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the same in another medium ( n=c/v ). In other words, it indicates the angle that the beam takes when penetrating the new medium. The reflection index, on the other hand, is the angle at which light bounces off a hard, polished surface. It determines the extent to which a light of a particular wavelength can penetrate the material before being absorbed. In a material with a low absorption coefficient, light is poorly absorbed, and if the material is thin enough, it will appear transparent at that wavelength (lamda). This absorption rate varies with L and gives rise to the colors of the objects. So we have the possibility of another antonym of the refractive index and it would be the coefficient of light absorption. This considering one as it moves andvitro as it is absorbed.
