Page 421 - Thus, if we consider light falling upon a metal plate, if we increase the distance of the source of light, we shall diminish the number of these different bundles or units falling on a given area of the metal, but we shall not diminish the energy in the individual units ; thus any effect which can be produced by a unit by itself, will, when the source of light is removed to a greater distance, take place less frequently it is true, but when it does take place it will be of the same character as when...
Page 354 - College, and RM COURTAULD, MA, MB, Pembroke College. [Read 25 November 1907.] In a paper by Purvis and Coleman on "The influence of the saline constituents of sea-water on the decomposition of sewage*," the authors described a series of experiments to ascertain the influence of the chief salts found in sea- water, and also of sterilised and unsterilised sea-water, on the decomposition of sewage, and particularly with regard to the production of nitrates.
Page 129 - Madras Census Report, 1881, vol. 1, 1883), may well be reproduced among male and female ova in the ovary when that organ is subjected to homologous conditions ; and such conditions may certainly be brought about in consequence of the active participation of one or other or many of the extraneous forces already alluded to. Thus, so far as this portion of the subject is concerned I am disposed to maintain : (1) that through the medium of nutrition supplied to the ovary, either by the quantity or by...
Page 39 - If there are four corpuscles these will be in equilibrium if placed at the angular points of a regular tetrahedron with its centre at the centre of the sphere. In these cases the corpuscles are all on the surface of a sphere concentric with the sphere of positive electrification, and we might suppose that whatever the number of corpuscles the position of equilibrium would be one of symmetrical distribution over the surface of a sphere.
