He picked up the phone and punched the wavelength of the military airport.
We have a wavelength open to Konkrook, general," she said.
Von Schlichten; what's the wavelength of the officer in command at the equipment-park?
He measured the exact wavelength of the characteristic X rays by reflecting them from certain crystals.
There was such a close connection, in fact, that Moseley could arrange the elements in order according to the wavelength of the characteristic X rays.
From the degree of bending the wavelength of the waves can be determined.
Roddy, interested as to who, in the wonderful modern world of wireless where men and women only meet through the ether, could have called him, raised his receiving wavelength to a thousand metres and listened.
Quickly Roddy increased hiswavelength to a thousand metres, which he swiftly tested with his wave-metre, a box-like apparatus with buzzer and little electric bulb.
This, with coils taking every wavelength from one hundred to twenty-five thousand metres, completed one of the best and most sensitive sets that had been invented.
What about sounds, for instance, that have a wavelength of a hundred, a thousand miles on the one hand, or a millionth part of an inch on the other?
Their vibration became reduced--down closer to the sixteen-foot wavelength which is the limit of human audition.
With us the question of hearing is merely the question of wavelengths in the air," he replied; "the lowest audible sound having a wavelength of sixteen feet, the highest less than an inch.
Von Schlichten, what's the wavelength of the officer in command at the equipment-park?
Unless a bystander had equipment to tune in on the special scrambled wavelength they were using, that bystander would never know they were holding a conversation.
Like a TV broadcasting station, he could choose his wavelengthand stick to it.
He generated and detected electromagnetic waves across the length of his laboratory on a wavelength of approximately one metre.
It was a station in Saarbrueken and we were on a wavelength of 42 metres.
When the question of wavelength for the proposed station was considered somebody said a wavelength of 2,000 metres might be appropriate.
