Page 86 - A body immersed in a liquid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by it.
Page 20 - Newton's first law of motion: " Every body continues in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, except in so far as it is compelled to change that state by a force impressed upon it.
Page 87 - ... the ratio of the ovendry weight of a sample to the weight of a volume of water equal to the volume of the sample at some specific moisture content, as green, air-dry, or ovendry.
Page 309 - The volt, which has the value 10s in terms of the centimetre, the gramme, and the second of time, being the electrical pressure that if steadily applied to a conductor whose resistance is one ohm will produce a current of one ampere, and which is represented by -6974 (•}•$$) of the electrical pressure at a temperature of 15° C.
Page 325 - Ampere, which is one-tenth of the unit of current of the CGS system of electromagnetic units and which is represented sufficiently well for practical use by the unvarying current which, when passed through a solution of nitrate of silver in water, in accordance with a certain specification, deposits silver at the rate of 0.001118 of a gramme per second.

Page 211 - British thermal unit (BT u.) is defined as the quantity of heat needed to raise the temperature of one pound of water one degree Fahrenheit.
Page 271 - The air which has risen in the tropics flows off towards the poles and descends again to the surface of the earth at a latitude of about 35°. Now since these warm winds descend from greater heights and have therefore a larger velocity toward the east than the surface of the earth, they will flow from the southwest in the northern hemisphere and from the northwest in the southern hemisphere. The atmospheric disturbances, due to these causes, seldom reach an elevation of more than 3000 m or two miles.
Page 285 - Induction. of opposite sign near each other, and render visible the lines of induction by means of iron filings (Fig. 121), it will be seen that the lines pass directly from the north pole of one magnet to the south pole of the other. The attracIf we place two poles FIG.
Page 173 - That is, the wave length of the fundamental of a closed organ pipe is four times the length of the pipe. If we compare this result with that obtained for the open pipe, we see that the wave length of the closed pipe is double that of an open pipe of the same length, or the fundamental of a closed pipe is an octave lower than that of an open pipe of the same length.
