srepresent molecules whose darkenedside is +. This first layer then actsFig. 288. upon the next, and so on until the other conductor is reached. The last layer polarizes the firstlayer in that, in a similar way. But because it is a good conductor,its molecules do not retain the electricity. Each… … 242 ELECTKICITY. 819. Induction Precedes Discharge. In all cases, themolecules of the resisting medium are polarized before adischarge takes place through it. This explains why elec-tricity follows the path of the least resistance. In thispath, there is the least number of polarized but…
