exceedingly short in a condenser discharge and thecurrent proportionally large, but so short is the time that little totalenergy is expended. The work which the stored energy can do— Foot-lbs. = ——, where V is volts. 2.712 A 10 microfarad condenser on 250 volts calculated on this formulae,F =… … Fig. 177 circuit corresponding to this amount at each alternation of pressure.And in practice some of the energy is lost in the dielectrics used, asshown by the fact that they become sensibly hotter with alternatingcurrents. 141 Electrolysis Referring back to Fig. 173, the capacity of cables can be…
