A short piece of small brass tubing is brazed into one end, through which the tube is exhausted. A lump of sodium the size of a walnut is melted in an iron crucible, and poured out into a V-shaped trough made of thin sheet iron. As soon as the bar is solid it is placed in the iron tube, one end of which J p I Li...

Página 70 - Other points would have been determined, but time did not permit It is obvious that the intermediate points in the lower and in the higher octave were desirable, but no pipes were to be had on such short notice for this part of the range, and in their absence the data could not be obtained. In the diagram, Figure 7, the points lying on the vertical lines were determined the first night. The points lying between the vertical lines were determined the second night. The accuracy with which these points...

As v is proportional to the tangent of the angle of inclination of the iron line from the horizontal line on the thermo-electric diagram, the statement just made means that in the temperature region considered the iron line should be one of increasing steepness with rise of temperature. Taking the value of v at 32° as — (757 — 20 X 2) X...

In either case it is called reverberation. It is sometimes called, mistakenly as has been explained, resonance. The reverberation may be expressed by the duration of audibility of the residual sound after the cessation of a source so adjusted as to produce an average of sound of some standard intensity over the whole room. The direct determination...

They therefore remain near the ground, on account of the bright patches of moonlight, instead of flying towards the moon; but if they come near a candle, the...
