AB is a fixed andCD a movable conductor (Fig. 173),the latter being supported on knife-edges at e. The p.d. which is established between AJ3 and CD causesC to approach A, and D to approach B, and the couple is balancedagainst gravity. The range of the instrument may be varied byaltering the little… … Fig. 173. 162 ELECTRICITY AND MAGNETISM CHAP. was made by Faradcay. of the instrument with the largest weight extending up to severalthousand volts. Comparison of Capacities.—On p. 151 we saw that the capacity ofany conductor is directly proportional to the dielectric constant of themedium in which…
