Abstract
Question 1: What is the linear “density” of the spectral range on the ceiling? The crown molding is common for an older (circa 1925) house.
Question 2: The glass shown is a standard 16-oz. water glass engraved with many digits of pi. (The dimensions appear somewhat distorted because of the camera angle chosen to enhance the contrast of the numerals against the dark background.)
