sections ofthe circuit.* A traveling wave, equation (4), would correspond to the case ofeffective power in a permanent alternating-current circuit, whilethe stationary wave of the uniform circuit corresponds to the caseof reactive power. Since one of the most important applications of the… … 92 ELECTRIC DISCHARGES, WAVES AND IMPULSES. to introduce, when dealing with traveUng waves, the velocity unitas unit of length, that is, measure the length with the distance ofpropagation during unit time (3 X 10^° cm. with a straight con-ductor in air) as unit of length. This allows the use of the…
