This character of specific gravity may be applied by any person of common intelligence, with the aid of a small hydrostatic balance.
But when the castings are large, and especially if they are tall, the hydrostatic pressure of the melted metal upon the sides of the mould cannot be counteracted by the force of cohesion which the sand acquires by ramming.
In many cases it is convenient so to construct the filtering apparatus, as that the liquid shall not descend, but mount by hydrostatic pressure.
They are now ready for working the hydrostatic discharge-presses, the water pressure being conveyed from the one apartment to the other, under ground, through strong copper tubes, of small calibre.
Thus the metal first concretes below, while, by remaining fluid above, it continues to impart hydrostatic pressure during the shrinkage attendant upon refrigeration.
The figure shows that the small tuns are all placed on a lower level than the bottom of the great vessels M, so that the beer will flow into them, and, by hydrostatic equilibrium, will fill them to the same level.
Bramah's hydrostatic press, or a very strong wooden press working with a powerful screw, lever, and windlass, constitutes the description of mechanism by which density is imparted to gunpowder.
Excelsior water under its own hydrostatic pressure, have given it an increased reputation and it is rapidly attaining a wide-spread popularity.
Then, by filling the reservoirs through the long tube by hydrostatic pressure, the air is excluded, while the gas is not allowed to escape.
After a refreshing draught from this sparkling and delicious fountain, let us not fail to examine the proprietors' peculiar and very perfect method of bottling and barreling the Excelsior water by its own hydrostatic pressure.
This conduit is designed to resist only the pressure due to the hydraulic gradient, in contradistinction to that which would be due to the hydrostatic head, this arrangement saving 40% in the weight and cost of the pipes.
At the siphon under Kurla Creek the curves on the approaches as originally laid down were sharp, the hydrostatic head being there about 210 ft.
In the case of the Thirlmere aqueduct the greatest hydrostatic pressure, 410 ft.
At this point the hydrostatic head is about 250 ft.
Bose found that the movement of the leaflet can be renewed, in the detached specimen, by the application of the internal hydrostatic pressure.
So small a specimen, again, can easily be subjected to changing experimental conditions, such as the variation of internal hydrostatic pressure and temperature, application of different drugs, vapours and gases.
No, for it is height, not expanse, which, as hydrostatic engineers understand, governs the pressure of water.
To define the modulus of compression, we suppose that a solid body of any form is subjected to uniform hydrostatic pressure of amount p.
Footnote: The water is sometimes driven through iron tubes under a hydrostatic pressure of several hundred feet, with a force which cuts away rock of considerable solidity almost as easily as hard earth.
Whether this discovery and the discovery of the hydrostatic principle just mentioned were inventions or not, depends, of course, on the meaning of the word invention.
The greatest single exploit of Archimedes was his discovery and demonstration of the hydrostatic principle that the weight of liquid displaced by a body floating in it is equal to that of the body.
Another invention also utilizing external power, made near the end of the eighteenth century, was the hydrostatic press.
Those which they describe are those that ended in some definite creations, such as the hydrostatic law enunciated by Archimedes.
On the other hand, when not sustaining the hydrostatic pressure of the liquid lava within, the chimney would tend to be crushed in by the pressure of the surrounding tuff.
Rising as it does underhydrostatic pressure the water issuing at the glacier front may find its way upward in some of the crevasses and so emerge at a level considerably above the glacial floor.
The water within the tunnels not flowing with a free surface but being confined as though it were in a pipe, may, however, reach the glacier margin under a hydrostatic pressure sufficient to carry it up rising grades.
This may take place by the processes of folding and superincumbent fault displacement, by volcanic extravasations or ejections, or by a deeper seated and essentially hydrostatic elevation of rock beds over molten rock material.
Borelli (De Motu Animalium, 1680) attributed to the air-bladder a hydrostatic function which enabled the fish to rise and fall in the water by simply distending or compressing the air-bladder.
Perhaps the fresh water of this chain of rocks comes from the neighbouring coast, from the mountains of Cuba, by the effect of hydrostatic pressure.
So great is the abundance of the waters which filter by the clefts of the stratified rock that, from the effect of an hydrostatic pressure, fresh water springs far from the coast, and amidst salt water.
The lung-sac serves undoubtedly as a hydrostatic apparatus in the aquatic Pulmonata, as well as assisting respiration.
Air is admitted to this sac for respiratory andhydrostatic purposes, and it thus becomes a lung.
In this way a hydrostatic head of 125 feet is obtained at the power house.
The water power available under any condition depends principally upon two factors: First, the amount of fall orhydrostatic head on the wheels; second, the amount of water that can be turned over the wheels.
According to the experiments of Henry, water, under a hydrostatic pressure of 96 feet, will absorb three times as much carbonic acid gas as it can under the ordinary pressure of the atmosphere.
The forcing also of veins into contiguous stratified or schistose rocks is a natural consequence of the hydrostatic pressure to which columns of molten matter many miles in height must give rise.
According to hydrostatics, or to hydrostatic principles.
Vogel, of Leipzig, invented what he called "Hydrostatic General Mobile.
On the upper surface of the animal is a hydrostatic apparatus, the object of which is to maintain its equilibrium in the ambient element.
We have now reached the last class of polyps; those, namely, which Cuvier designates Hydrostatic Acalepha, and which De Blainville calls the Ciliobranchiá.
From this results a sort of hydrostatic apparatus, aided by which the animals can float in the water and transport themselves from one place to another.
This organ acts as a hydrostatic apparatus, increasing or reducing the specific gravity of the fish by compressing or altering the quantity of air in it.
At first this bladder has no respiratory function, but merely acts as hydrostatic apparatus for the purpose of increasing or lessening the specific gravity of the body.
This hydrostatic apparatus begins in the Dipneusts to change into a respiratory organ; the blood-vessels in the wall of the bladder now no longer merely secrete air themselves, but also take in fresh air through the air-duct.
It will come from one side of this partition to superpose itself on the hydrostatic pressure, which latter must have the same value on both sides.
If we abide by the ordinary consequences of the Newtonian theory of potential, the drops should remain motionless, the hydrostaticimpulsion forming an exact equilibrium to their mutual attraction.
For this reason the process of hydrostatic weighing is a somewhat laborious one.
This process is known as "hydrostatic weighing," and can be applied to any stone, except such as are very small.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "hydrostatic" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
