This is a form of "side lighting" at an angle in order to best see small movement on the body, observable detail, and decrease shadow. (i.e.- to assess the strength of a carotid pulse, side lighting (tangential) may be used to inspect the skin raising with the pulse.) This also is the most commonly used to allow a surgeon best visual accuity of the infinite details in the structure being operated on. Tangential is used as "direct" would be used in "direct lighting". It may also concern the light itself. Tangential lights have several light sources, reflective posterior surfaces, and are convex in shape. This facilitates the collective beams into a single beam, as with a tangent. This beam is then aimed in a specific location. In the O.R., these lights suspend from the ceiling and can be moved on an axis to allow the surgeon better viewing of the incision site.

What is tangential lighting is best use for inspecting skin?
No
What is the Tangential flow in turbine?
When flow of water on turbine is tangential, flow is tangential flow
Why tangential acceleration is not produced in uniform circular motion?
Because there is no tangential force acting on the object in uniform circular motion. The proof that there is no tangential component of acceleration is the fact that the tangential component of velocity is constant.
What is A sentence using tangential?
Look, the tangential line is touching a semi circle.
What is tangential velocity and tangential acceleration?
Vt=w*r where; * is multiply Vt is tangential velocity w is omega(angular mometum) r is radius
Is it possible to have positive instantaneous tangential velocity and negative instantaneous tangential acceleration?
Yes. Imagine a ball on a rigid pole being swung around, and slowing down. It's tangential velocity is positive but it's tangential acceleration is negative
How do you find tangential velocity?
Tangential velocity is equal to (mass x velocity^2)/radial distance
What is tangential quadrilateral?
A tangential quadrilateral is a four sided polygon such that each of its sides is tangent to the same circle.
What is the opposite of radially?
Tangential.
How do you use the word tangential in a sentence?
The subject of air rights was only tangential to the negotiations over property values. Warm air at ground level enters via tangential inlets around the base of the wall.
Where might you see an externally tangent circle?
On a road. The tyre of a car on the road is tangential to the road and so tangential to the earth.
How tangential acceleration produced in a body?
Tangential acceleration is d/dr mcV = mc dVcdt = mdv/dt. The tangential acceleration is dV/dt is produced from the Vector Energy (mcV, the "Dark Energy"). Newton "added" the tangential acceleration as " dV/dt" to balance he Gradient acceleration v2/r 1R.
