Working with two different specimens, he found that the hysteresis loss in ergs per cubic centimetre (W) was fairly represented by 0.
A unit magnetic pole is that which acts on an equal pole at a distance of one centimetre with a force of one dyne.
Where the induction is high the lines will be crowded together; where it is weak they will be widely separated, the number per square centimetre crossing a normal surface at any point being always equal to the numerical value of B.
In many experiments, however, different inductions and frequencies are employed, and the hysteresis-loss is often expressed as ergs per cubic centimetre per cycle and sometimes as horse-power per ton.
In a uniform magnetic field of unit intensity formed in empty space the induction or magnetic flux across an area of 1 square centimetre normal to the direction of the field is arbitrarily taken as the unit of induction.
A standard sodium hydrate solution can be prepared by dissolving 42 grammes of sodium hydrate, making up to a litre, and diluting until one cubic centimetre is exactly equivalent to one cubic centimetre of the sulphuric acid.
We see therefore that 1 cubic centimetre of a normal sodium carbonate solution will exactly neutralize 0.
In the metric system, since the weight of a cubic centimetre of pure water is one gram, the density in grams per cubic centimetre has the same numerical value as the specific gravity.
It is possible to make a very precise comparative study of them from this special point of view by taking as a base for each venom, as was done by Noc, the unital dose of 1 milligramme (or one-tenth of a cubic centimetre of a 1 per cent.
The snake’s fangs had penetrated rather deeply; the two little wounds were about a centimetre apart.
If n cubic centimetres of water absorb m cubic centimetres of a gas, then one cubic centimetreabsorbs m/n.
But it is equal to the weight s{0} of a cubic centimetre of a gas in grams at 0° and 76 cm.
The number of bacteria in one cubic centimetre of water sometimes attains the immense figures of hundreds of thousands and millions.
According to modern measurements the solar radiation imparts almost 3 gramme-calories of energy per minute per square centimetre at the distance of the earth, which is about 1.
The breadth of the Indian face is one centimetre more than that of the whites, and the half-breeds are nearer the Indian standard; this last is true also of colour in the skin, eyes and hair.
The fruit is a drupe of an elongated ovoid form, being a little more than a centimetre in length, of a reddish color when fresh, and having a tender, thickish pulp inclosing a seed.
The petals, half a centimetre in length, pointed, concave inside and yellowish white, exhale a rather pleasant odor.
But I soon noticed that the Japanese were trying on one of their little jokes, for these pretty cloudlets were caused by the firing of 10½-centimetre shrapnels!
Behind me our heavy howitzers roared their last message, and in the distance from the farthest southern point of Kiao-Chow the 29-centimetre guns of Fort Hstanniwa poured out their swan song.
It was strange to think that 51-and 30½-centimetre guns were used to such purpose!
But, as I tirelessly returned, the Japanese retaliated by posting two of their 10½-centimetre batteries so far behind and so much on the side that their shrapnel easily reached me whilst I was circling over their heads.
The Japanese were shooting from the land with heavy 20-centimetre shells, and the ships had trained their heaviest guns on to us.
Immediately at the beginning of the siege, my good Patzig was obliged to leave me and to rejoin his 21-centimetre Battery-commander.
And he beamingly showed me his singed pocket-handkerchief, which held the huge splinter of a 30-centimetre shell!
In a single cubic centimetre of air--a globule about the size of a small marble--there are thirty million trillion molecules.
The frizzy type (frise in French, lockig in German) is that in which the hair is rolled spirally, forming a succession of rings a centimetre or more in diameter (Fig.
The latter is that force which, acting on the mass of one gramme for one second, generates in that mass a velocity of one centimetre per second.
In the French the centimetreis the unit of length, the second the unit of time; the unit velocity in the one case being that of one foot per second, in the other one centimetre per second.
This consists of a glass box about a centimetrein thickness.
The unit of reluctance or magnetic resistance is the oersted (named after Hans Christian Oersted, the Danish physicist) and is defined as: the reluctance offered by a cubic centimetre of vacuum.
The amount of magnetism passing through every square centimetre of a field of unit density.
The Egyptian guns were 8-centimetre and 6-centimetre Krupp steel B.
Hence, if it is used as a Marconi aerial and operated with a spark gap of one centimetre in length, the energy stored up in the wire before each discharge would be only one-tenth (0.
The value of X/p for which F(X/p) is a maximum is seen from the preceding table to be about 420, when X is expressed in volts per centimetre and p in millimetres of mercury.
This relation is obtained on the hypothesis that N ions in a cubic centimetre produce the same pressure as N uncharged molecules.
Let q be the number of ions (positive or negative) produced in one cubic centimetre of the gas per second by the ionizing agent, n1, n2, the number of free positive and negative ions respectively per cubic centimetre of the gas.
The number of collisions between positive and negative ions per second in one cubiccentimetre of the gas is proportional to n1n2.
Let m be the number of positive ions per unit volume, and w their velocity, the number of collisions which occur in one second in one cubic centimetre of the gas will be proportional to mwp, where p is the pressure of the gas.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "centimetre" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
