Laboratory exercises to accompany Carhart and Chute's First principles of physics (1913)
Fuller, Robert W. (Robert Warren), 1871-1953, Brownlee, Raymond B. (Raymond Bedell), b. 1877 joint author, Carhart, Henry Smith, 1844- First principles of physics. [from old catalog] · Boston, Allyn and Bacon · leaf 307
peres of current flowing through themotor and the voltage applied to the machine, we can cal-culate the power applied in watts. Since 1 horse poweris equal to 746 watts, the ratio of the power exerted bythe motor on-the brake and the power applied to the motorby the current is readily found.… … a starting box is provided, the ammeter terminals shouldbe short-circuited by a switch, which should not be opened until the motor has reached fullspeed. If a starting box is used,O \**J _l!i^ ^e ammeter should be connected *a) between the source of current and the starting box, so that its…
