Whispering Wires Private lighting sets are frequently as low as 50, and current derived from accumulators may be anything from a few volts and upwards. Optical Projection Part 1: Projection of Lantern Slides The electromotive force of these cells varies between 2.2 and 1.8 volts as they discharge; hence the above number of cells is sufficient for maintaining the necessary electromotive force. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 9, Slice 2 "Ehud" to "Electroscope" 2011-01-29T03:00:23.777Z It means," he added, slowly, "incalculable volts of uncontrollable electricity acting and acted upon by nascent oxygen and hydrogen. A Republic Without a President and Other Stories Two batteries B, B', of about 100 volts, are connected as shown, B being provided with a compensating variable resistance W; W' is also a regulating resistance. Wireless Transmission of Photographs Second Edition, Revised and Enlarged 1919 What’s the idea of having an alternating current of low voltage on the same line with a talking current of three volts? Whispering Wires Power currents, such as commonly employed for tramways, &c., are usually about 500 volts, but the use of these currents for lighting purposes, though practicable, is not to be advocated. Optical Projection Part 1: Projection of Lantern Slides If the plates be covered with a deposit of platinum black, in which the gases are absorbed as fast as they are produced, the minimum decomposition point is 1.07 volt, and the process is reversible. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 9, Slice 2 "Ehud" to "Electroscope" 2011-01-29T03:00:23.777Z Feller that stands the greatest number of alternating volts gets the apology. A Republic Without a President and Other Stories For precipitators we can rig a battery-powered system that will put a few thousand volts on the screens. The Year When Stardust Fell If wished, keys may be arranged so as to apply 30 volts to the test-strand and the collecting potential to the line at the same operation. Cyclopedia of Telephony and Telegraphy, Vol. 2 A General Reference Work on Telephony, etc. etc. The amp�res used multiplied by the number of volts give the total power consumed in watts, and 1000 watts used for one hour represent 1 unit as charged for on our dreaded lighting bills. Optical Projection Part 1: Projection of Lantern Slides It is usual to furnish a continuous current supply for traction at 500 or 600 volts, although some station engineers are advocating the use of higher voltages. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 9, Slice 2 "Ehud" to "Electroscope" 2011-01-29T03:00:23.777Z Beatrice turned—and ten thousand volts shot through Anthony and caused his hair to stand on end. In And Out But to determine at any time the actual value of its readings in volts, it is necessary to standardize it, or determine its scale-value or reduction-factor, by comparison with a standard cell. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 5, Slice 1 "Calhoun" to "Camoens" It ranges from 100 to 300 volts in most cases. Cyclopedia of Telephony and Telegraphy, Vol. 2 A General Reference Work on Telephony, etc. etc. Now, take an example of a similar arc lamp consuming 10 amp�res but worked from a supply of 200 volts. Optical Projection Part 1: Projection of Lantern Slides You're just a specimen of what a jacked-up tiger would turn out to be, burned under a few million volts of hard radiation. Deepfreeze Special type condensers built a battery charge up to over a million volts for a split second. All In The Mind A few thousand volts—a flash of flame through heart and head and limbs, and then this! Cleek of Scotland Yard Detective Stories The drop across the coils at 10 milliamperes is 38 volts. Cyclopedia of Telephony and Telegraphy, Vol. 2 A General Reference Work on Telephony, etc. etc. In practice any current from 100 volts to 250 volts may be considered as satisfactory for lantern work with a suitable resistance.
