LECTROMAGNETIC FIELD 183 and electromotive forces, and the transformation of the energy into heat withinthe conductor. We have now to inquire how the energy travels through the medium onits way to the wire. (2) Discharge of a condenser through a wire. We shall first consider the case of the slow… … Kg. 2. Let A and B, Fig. 2, be the two plates of the condenser, xi being positivelyand B negatively electrified. Then before discharge the sections of the equi-potential surfaces will be somewhat as sketched. The chief part of the energyresides in the part of the dielectric between the two plates,…
