Thus water and benzine have practically the same boiling point, but at the same distance below the boiling point, benzine evaporates much faster than water; that is, has a much higher vapor tension. Carbon has a very high vapor tension, that is, shows a very rapid evaporation far below the boiling point, and since in the incan- descent lamp the carbon vapor condenses and is deposited on the globe and carbon is black, it blackens the globe and obstru ...Lecture 17: Arc Lighting - 16 hit(s)

If you could set a body in vibration, in which the vibrating particles, atoms or molecules, are so far apart as not to interfere with each other, as in a gas at low pressure, then they would execute their own periods of vibration, and then the light from such a body would not be a radiation of all wave lengths, but we would get radiations of 244 GENERAL LECTURES only a few definite wave lengths, or a line spectrum.

Series resistance, however, also limited the discharge current, and with very heavy discharges, such lightning arresters with series resistance failed to protect the circuits, that is, failed to discharge the abnormal voltage without destructive pressure rise. This difficulty was solved by the introduction of shunted resistances, that is, resistances shunt- ing a part of the spark gaps.

The cause of the disadvantages of the gas engine is the high maximum temperature and the high maximum pressure compared with the mean pressure in the cylinders, which is necessary to get the greater temperature range and thus the efficiency, therefore is inherent in this type of apparatus.

In the space outside of the conductor, during the flow of energy through the circuit, a condition of stress exists which is called the electric field of the conductor.
