...paradoxical, Henry suggests that the " current from a trough possesses more 'projectile ' force (to use Prof. Hare's expression) and approximates somewhat in 'intensity' to the electricity from the common machine." " But be this as it may," he concludes, "the fact that the magnetic action of a current from a trough... | |

...to give projectile force ; on the contrary, a single pair of plates will answer for short wires. " May it not also be a fact that the galvanic fluid, in order to produce the greatest magnetic effects, should move with a small velocity, and that, in passing through one-fifth of a mile, its velocity... | |
