A seedling of Zea Mays was placed on the Crescographic Balance; and the magnetic amplification, as stated above, was ten million times.
But with my Magnetic Crescograph, the magnification can easily be raised ten million times; and the response of plant to the space signalling can be exalted in the same proportion.
A physical analogy will make this point clear; imagine a small magnetic needle suspended by a thin wire; the earth's directive force is supposed to be annulled by the well known device of a compensating magnet.
Thus the molecular upset and rearrangement, in a magnetic substance under increasing magnetising force are inferred from the curve obtained by means of appropriate magnetometric or galvanometric methods.
Thus there may be a kind of magnetic power which creates relations between all objects in the universe.
To explain an obsession or a sleep state by the agencies of evil spirits or magnetic fluids is certainly an unnecessary side conception.
He believed further that he was able to infuse this magnetic power into any lifeless thing, which would then have curative influence on the nerves.
The next great step was due to the English surgeon, Braid, who in the forties studied the magnetic phenomena and like Faria insisted on the merely mental origin of the abnormal state.
There is thus certainly no special physical energy which like a magnetic force flows over.
We know that hypnotism is not based on any special power of the hypnotizer; there is no magnetic fluid in the sense of the old mesmerism.
The complex machinery of cosmic influences and obsessions by demons and magnetic mysteries was at first necessary until the simple explanation was found that all the results depend upon the working of the mind itself.
In the middle of the seventeenth century, Helmont connects this power of magnetic attraction and repulsion with an ethereal element which penetrates all bodies and keeps them in motion.
One individual by the power of his effort can influence the will of another individual, can fight with it, and suppress it; and all through energies which are analogous to the magnetic power which binds stars and men.
But the general stream of the explanation continued in the direction of the magnetic doctrine.
He abstained therefore from the magnetic manipulations and produced the somnambulic state by making the patients simply fixate his hands and by ordering them to sleep.
The magnetic power was therefore evidently in man himself.
It is the esprit du corps of the army; that magnetic power which comes from the touch of elbows, and the consecration to a common cause.
The family feeling which is the ideal of church fellowship was so strong and warm that it attracted and drew people as with magnetic power.
It was based on the principle of Laplace and Ampere, and consisted of two electric circuits and a pair of magnetic needles which responded to the interruptions of the current.
Morse, then an artist, conceived the idea of the electro-magnetic marking telegraph, and drew a design for it in his sketch-book.
Yet each knew that in this hour tonight there was some potent quality, some indefinable magnetic thing that seemed to charge the air with sweetly mysterious emotions.
There is a magnetic property in the upper stratum of this piece of derelict real estate, sir, which attracts to it every bit of canned substance that is lost overboard in all parts of the world.
A ship is wrecked, say, in the Pacific Ocean, and ultimately all the loose metal upon her will succumb to the irresistible attraction of this magnetic upper stratum, and will find its way to its shores.
It has been deflected by it as by an underground magnetic current.
The magnetic force, with which the mediating theology makes play, is to be rejected.
Twelve, are drawn by the same kind of magnetic force into the neighbourhood of Mark vii.
Protons carry a positive charge and a force can therefore be exerted upon them by an electric or magnetic field.
To Addison Smith, of Perrysburgh, Ohio, for improvement in Magnetic Fire Alarms.
Twelve hundred and thirty-four miles of magnetic telegraph are reported to be in actual operation in the United States.
Side-note: Farther civil and political regulations for the Magnetic community.
He admits indeed, implicitly, that the Gods are influenced by prayer and sacrifice; since he directs both the one and the other to be constantly offered up, by the citizens of his Magnetic city, in this very Treatise.
He makes no arrangement for the calendar of his new Magnetic city.
Again, he investigated the connexion between the optical behaviour, density and chemical composition of ethereal oils, and the relation between molecular magnetic rotation and the refraction and dispersion of nitrogenous compounds.
The material has been considered by some to be magnetic iron ore and by others oxide of manganese.
With the view of ascertaining the force of magnetic attraction, and of examining the electrical properties and constitution of the atmosphere at great elevations, two young, enthusiastic French philosophers, MM.
All magnetic remedies that were employed produced no effect.
The magnetic needle was attracted as usual by iron, but it was impossible for them at this time to determine with accuracy its rate of oscillation, owing to a slow rotary motion with which the balloon was affected.
Without a word Ken inserted a magnetic card into the slot beside the door handle and then pushed it open.
He slipped a magnetic card into the handle of the steel case, punched in some electronic numbers on a pad there next to the latch, and slowly raised the lid.
The most stupid of them understood now just what sort of thing the reserved, magnetic Paul Carhart stood for, and they were finding it a very good sort of thing indeed.
Apart from the surprising velocity of transmission of earthquake waves, the strongest argument for an iron core to the lithosphere is found in the magnetic property of the earth as a whole.
Despite the tumult of passion which was raging in his heart, he was conscious again of the magnetic power which bound so many to this man's service.
Iron, the most abundant and the cheapest of the heavy metals, the strongest and most magnetic of known substances, is perhaps also the most indispensable of all save the air we breathe and the water we drink.
Suddenly cooled carbon steel, even if rich in austenite, is strongly magnetic because of the very magnetic [alpha]-iron which inevitably forms even in the most rapid cooling from region 4.
It is the common, very magnetic form of iron, in itself ductile but relatively soft and weak, as we know it in wrought iron and mild or low-carbon steel.
