Plastic is less dense than glass, so normally a plastic cup is considerably lighter than a glass cup, although in theory a very small glass cup could weigh less than a very large plastic cup.
No polycarbonate plastic and acrylic plastic make a better replacement for glass than vinyl. There are also some applications for which nothing replaces real glass.
Glass is more durable.
The traveling of concentrated light through long tiny fibers of glass to carry sound is called optical fiber communication. This technology uses light signals to transmit data over long distances at high speeds with minimal signal loss.
Heat will travel faster through a glass cup than a plastic cup because glass is a better conductor of heat than plastic. This means that heat will transfer more quickly through the glass, making it heat up or cool down faster compared to the plastic cup.
Optical fibers are long thin strands of glass or plastic that can carry light for long distances. They are used in telecommunications and networking to transmit data at high speeds.
A hologram is basically a 3D image formed by light beams. The long, thin, flexible strands of glass or plastic that is used to carry light signals and telecommunication data for long distances is known as Fibre Optics.
The air in the atmosphere causes light to flicker. Therefore Its called atmospheric distortion. Its why the sun and moon are larger, the closer they are.
Fiber optics. They work by transmitting light through a core that reflects off the walls of the fiber, ensuring minimal light loss over long distances. This technology is widely used in telecommunications for high-speed data transmission.
Good optical fiber is made of glass, but inexpensive fiber is sometimes made of plastic.
Non conductive materials like plastic or glass.
Plastic is easier to carry than glass!
Fiber optic cable has a glass or plastic core that carries light signals for high-speed data transmission over long distances.
An optical fiber is an object that can be used to transmit light. It is a flexible, transparent fiber made of glass or plastic that can carry light over long distances without significant loss of intensity.
Fibre optic
optical fibers are strands of glass or plastic that use light to pass information. It is very fast and is not disturbed by electromagnetic fields.
Fiber Optic cables carry data as light.
