If we close the machine, as Rosetti did, we obtain a continuous current which has all the properties of a very weak galvanic current; for example, it produces a deflexion in a multiplier which we interpose, and so forth.
At first a considerable current is indicated by the galvanometer; the deflexion soon diminishes, however, and finally becomes very small.
If the temperature of the magnet were always exactly the same in both the vibration and deflexion experiment, then no correction on account of the effect of temperature in the magnetic moment would be necessary in either experiment.
When conducting a deflexionexperiment the deflecting magnet K is placed with its centre at 30 cm.
Q is negligible, and thus by means of deflexion experiments at two distances the value of P can be obtained.
The value of the constants P and Q can be obtained by making deflexion experiments at three distances.
By the sensitiveness of the galvanometer is meant the deflexion produced by a known electromotive force put upon its terminals or a known current sent through it.
A galvanometer can be calibrated, or the meaning of its deflexion determined, by passing through it an electric current of known value and observing the deflexion of the needle or coil.
A method of measuring the deflexionby means of a mirror scale and telescope was introduced by K.
In modern mirror galvanometers a deflexionof 1 mm.
If there is the slightest displacement of the centre of gravity of the system from the axis of revolution a force acts on the shaft tending to deflect it, and varies as the deflexion and as the square of the speed.
The variation alters progressively, increasing to a maximum in one deflexion; it then retrogrades till it points true north, which it progressively overpasses in the opposite deflexion to a maximum again.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "deflexion" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
