If that be so, then in the solar spectrum we ought to have revealed to us, not only indications of the presence of the heat and light vibrations, but equally so the presence of electric waves.
This permits more energy to be stored up by the condenser and this is impressed on the aerial when it is radiated as electric waves.
The magnetic field thus produced sets up in turn electric oscillations in the secondary coil of the oscillation transformer and these surge through the aerial wire system where their energy is radiated in the form of electric waves.
He discovered that a weakly magnetized steel wire becomes instantaneously demagnetized under the influence of electrical oscillations, such as electric waves.
Wireless telegraphy, or the transmission of signals through space by means of electric waves, is of a comparatively recent origin, although the idea of the existence of electric waves dates back some forty years ago.
The results given below show that growing plants not only perceive but respond to the stimulus of electric waves.
Returning to the action of electric waves, since they exert no photo-synthetic action they might conceivably induce the complementary tropic effect.
I undertook to investigate the effect of electric waves on plants by the methods of mechanical and of electrical responses, and also by that of induced variation of growth.
An immediate deduction from Maxwell's theory was that in transparent dielectrics, the dielectric constant or specific inductive capacity should be numerically equal to the square of the refractive index for very long electric waves.
The wire framework behaves towards theelectric waves exactly as a plate of tourmaline does to waves of light.
Electric waves will go through a brick wall as readily as sunlight will go through a glass window, but that is not so strange as it may seem.
If we think of waves somewhat like water waves, but not exactly like them, rushing through space, we have about as good a picture of electric waves as we can well form in our minds.
A thermal cymoscope which operates by increased resistance when subjected to the influence of electric waves.
Any device for detecting the presence of electric waves.
Any of various devices for detecting the presence of electric waves.
Wireless electricity is the outcome of Hertz's experiments on electric waves, and electrical conditions and actions are more fundamental than hitherto regarded.
What we call brain waves have an analogy to electric waves.
We have thus a means of comparing the sensitiveness of the retina to light with the responsiveness of the Marconi coherer to electric waves, after both radiations have undergone a journey of miles.
Now for the effect of electric waves such as Hertz produced, when they impinge upon substances reduced to powder or filings.
Such undulations pass readily through brick or stone walls, through common roofs and floors--indeed, through all substances which are non-conductive to electric waves of ordinary length.
The importance of the "good earth" will have been seen from our discussion on the mode of formation of electric waves.
By the second arrangement we have therefore the means of radiating more or less continuous trains of electric waves, corresponding with each spark discharge.
He read a paper 'On a complete Apparatus for studying the Properties of Electric Waves' at the meeting of British Association, held at Liverpool, in 1896.
Bose had joined the Presidency College, Hertz demonstrated, by direct experiment, the existence of Electric Waves--the properties of which had been predicted by Clerk Maxwell long before.
The variations to which luminous waves give rise in the resistance of selenium and other substances are, doubtless, not unconnected with those which the electric wavesproduce in filings.
It is right to add that Sir William Preece had himself utilised induction phenomena in his experiments, and had begun researches with the aid of electric waves.
This idea of the oscillating current was closely akin to that which was at last to lead to an entirely satisfactory solution: that is, to a solution which is founded on the properties of electric waves.
The above list will hopefully provide you with a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "electric waves" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this group of words.
