The best modern technical writings emphasize the importance of the limits of linear elasticity and of tests of dynamical resistance (S 87 below) as well as of statical resistance.
Righi's exciter, which is especially convenient when largestatical electric machines are used instead of induction coils, is shown in fig.
The theoretical limits of twice, or three times, thestatical strain are not in general attained.
For example, if a thin bar hanging vertically from its upper end is suddenly loaded at its lower end with a weight equal to its own weight, the greatest dynamical strain bears to the greatest statical strain the ratio 1.
We have seen that heat and electricity act strangely on magnetic force, and that this statical power reacts upon them: and thus the question naturally arises, Do light and magnetism in any way act upon each other?
Electro-static induction, the action by which a body possessing a charge of statical electricity develops a charge of statical electricity of the opposite character in a neighboring body.
Physics) Defn: A substance which becomes electrically polar when heated, exhibiting opposite charges of statical electricity at two separate parts, especially the two extremities.
Statical moment, the product of a force into its leverage; the same as moment of a force with respect to a point, line, etc.
And throughout, wherever the survival from 1843, the identity bug-bear, is for the moment got rid of in what is really a more liberal conception, the statical doctrine is developed in a brilliant and informing manner.
Thorpe for a definition of statical "Statical (Med.

This may be termed the statical breaking strength.
We can no more revert to the statical conception than we can turn back the sun in his course.
The old statical conception of a world created all at once in its present shape was the result of very narrow experience; it was entertained when we knew only an extremely small segment of the world.
No statical experiments can ascertain the quantity of our perspiration; as a continued absorption of the moisture of the atmosphere exists at the same time both by the cutaneous and pulmonary lymphatics.
On the other hand, statical forces are not masses animated by velocity, and thus are set aside because they originate no real movement.
It is, therefore, impossible to ignorestatical forces.
Yet so long as all effect will need a cause, there can be no doubt that statical forces must be real forces.
The statical condition represents content, the dynamical, discontent; and both content and discontent, each still retaining a little of its opposite, must be carried down to the lowest atom.
He is a substance feeling equilibrium or want of equilibrium; that is to say, he is a substance in a statical or dynamical condition and feeling the passage from one state into the other.
When these reactions have taken place, the atmosphere as a whole will have attained a condition analogous to that of statical equilibrium (Sec.
In virtue of this property, the equilibrium of the column might be termed neutral or statical equilibrium.
The gas may then be described as in the neutral or statical condition.
All are in equilibrium as constituents of the composite atmosphere, but none approach the condition of statical equilibrium peculiar to an atmosphere composed of one gas only (Sec.
But it is evident that in a composite atmosphere, the separate statical conditions of several gases could not be maintained.
This statical condition of equilibrium of a gas is of course a purely hypothetical one.
In reviewing thestatical condition of the above apparatus, the pendulum itself has been assumed to be hanging vertically at rest under the influence of gravitation.
If the planetary atmosphere were composed of nitrogen instead of oxygen, the height of the statical atmospheric column under the given conditions would then be approximately 31 x 1.
In the lower strata of the atmosphere the condition in some cases may approximate to the latter, but in the upper strata it is possessed of energy qualities quite abnormal to statical equilibrium.
If the submarine has sufficient statical stability she will maintain substantially a level keel even when riding over a steep declivity.
My experience has led me to prefer great statical stability rather than sensitiveness.
Thus the shell of the Nautilus Pompilius has, hydrostatically, an A-statical surface.
And the function of ancient Italy was not merely to give us what is statical in our institutions and rational in our law, but to blend into one elemental creed the spiritual aspirations of Aryan and of Semite.
The Aryans were credited with a due balance between the dynamical and statical energy of their intellect, to which they owed nearly all the great inventions and discoveries, and with all the systematic development of science.
Their intellect was as characteristically statical as that of the other yellow races, the dynamic impulse manifesting itself only in symbolism, mysticism, and the like.
The statical and dynamical forces of the intellect were said to be undeveloped, the animal propensities predominating.
Here, too, the statical or conservative energy of the intellect was made the great characteristic, the dynamical or progressive developing for the most part in technical products only.
Statical Essays, containing Vegetable Staticks; or an Account of some Statical Experiments on the Sap of Vegetables, by Stephen Hales, D.
All quantitative and qualitative phenomena, all statical and dynamical phenomena, are due solely to varied modes of motion in the primordial fluid.
Matter is the merely passive or statical condition for the action of force.
Footnote 333: By the statical properties of matter we understand extension, limit, position, impenetrability, and inertia.
The creative efficiency was put forth, and matter, as thestatical condition necessary to the manifestation of physical phenomena, began to be.
This maladjustment is to be distinguished from the reaerrangements which are contemplated by the statical ideal and due to the mere rotation of wants in society; the latter are within the moral system as a system of mobile equilibrium.
To these two divisions is to be added a third, preliminary division, more closely allied with the statical examination of morality.
In all actual goodness, we have perfection attained as well; but in thestatical notion of goodness perfection is subordinate--only that exercise is perfect which is legitimate.
See the staticalposition and tendency or gravitation of Liquids, in M.
Rehearsal of the principal experiments of statical electricity.
Currents produced by the sources of statical electricity.
Experiments on the dilatation of liquids and solids by means of the ordinary thermometer and by means of the statical thermometer.
A mill-dam or a monument must conform to the statical laws of matter, or not serve the purpose it was meant for; a mill or a steam-engine must conform to the dynamical laws of matter, or it is also useless.
The mechanism of society, with its statical and dynamical laws, is the most marvellous phenomenon in the universe.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "statical" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
