mination occupied a sensible time, Wheat-stone showed that the whole discharge must take place inless than 2 ofoo °^ a sec0I1(i. The appearance of the spark at the two electrodes is some-what different. If, for instance, the spark is branched, thesebranches always point toward the negative… … 301. Discharge from Points. — Supposethat A (Fig. 219) is a conductor possessingseveral points, and charged, say, to a poten-tial, V= 7. Let B be another conductormaintained at the potential zero, and drawsurfaces for unit difference of potential. Itis then evident, from the crowding together of…
