We see in comparing the three preceding series , 1st , that the wire of a metre in
length gave absolutely the most elevated marimum ; 2ndly , that the relative
maxima in each series were found nearer the wire in proportion as this wire was

It is only with a very strong discharge of a battery of twenty - two feet surface that
we obtain the same effect with a wire of equal diameter , and of eleven metres in
length , the helically wound part being the same in both cases . But this wire has

length of the vibrations of the strip being diminished , and the velocity increased ,
the luminous disc appears perfectly steady and clear . The length of the vibrating
portion of the strip is then read off by the verniers marked on the brass rod , and ...

Seite 427 - ... a wire down the outside of the building into the ground, or down round one of the shrouds of a ship, and down her side till it reaches the water?
Seite 414 - To determine the question whether the clouds that contain lightning are electrified or not, I would propose an experiment to be tried where it may be done conveniently.
Seite 151 - By exposure to excessive cold the primitive fungi are killed, but their seed still retains vitality, and, if immersed in snow, which appears to be their native soil, they reproduce new fungi, which are generally of a red colour. The Philosophical Transactions for 1823 contains the paper by Mr. Bauer already alluded to, entitled " Microscopical Observations on the Suspension of the Muscular Motions of the Vibrio tritici," which forms the Croonian Lecture for that year.
Seite 336 - The declaration was in the usual form, and the defendants pleaded thereto, first, that they were not guilty; secondly, that the plaintiff was not the...
Seite 414 - ... or 30 feet, pointed very sharp at the end. If the electrical stand be kept clean and dry, a man standing on it when such clouds are passing low, might be electrified and afford sparks, the rod drawing fire to him from a cloud.
Seite 377 - Fig. 9,) big enough to contain a man and an electrical stand. From the middle of the stand let an iron rod rise and pass bending out of the door, and then upright twenty or thirty feet, pointed very sharp at the end. If the electrical stand be kept clean and dry, a man standing on it, when such...
Seite 484 - ... will give a spark at a greater distance. Two gun-barrels united, and as highly electrified, will give a spark at a still greater distance. But if two gun-barrels electrified will strike at two inches distance, and make a loud snap, to what a great distance may 10,000 acres of electrified cloud strike and give its fire, and how loud must be that crack?
Seite 414 - If any danger to the man should be apprehended (though I think there would be none) let him stand on the floor of his box, and now and then bring near to the rod the loop of a wire that has one end fastened to the leads, he holding it by a wax handle ; so the sparks, if the rod is electrified, will strike from the rod to the wire, and not affect him.
Seite 377 - I say, if these things are so, may not the knowledge of this power of points be of use to mankind, in preserving houses, churches, ships, &V. from the stroke of lightning, by directing us to fix on the highest parts of those edifices, upright rods of iron made sharp as a needle, and gilt to prevent rusting, and from the foot of those rods a wire down the outside of the building into the ground, or down round one of the shrouds of a ship...
Seite 73 - The mutual action between the elements of the food and the oxygen conveyed by the circulation of the blood to every part of the body is the source of animal heat. " All living creatures whose existence depends on the absorption of oxygen possess within themselves a source of heat independent of surrounding objects.
