Página 362 - Z^Aa t>- --= sm 7 /'<and E are the complete elliptic integrals of the first and second kind, respectively, to modulus k.
Página 480 - ... of the silicate radical is different in each mineral containing that element. The examination includes minerals of which the chemical constitution is in doubt, for example, talc and serpentine. The former is not supposed to contain hydroxyl groups, while in the latter such groups are inferred. The present...
Página 480 - The interpretation of the results is based upon the assumption that if the union of the oxygen and the hydrogen in the molecule is similar to that in water, then the absorption spectra of minerals containing these two elements thus united should show the absorption bands of water superposed upon the absorption spectrum of the other constituents. On the other hand, minerals containing oxygen and hydrogen as water of constitution should not show the water bands, except hydroxyl groups, which should...
Página 166 - ... should be a minimum. A very important example of the principle that steady currents distribute themselves so as to make the rate of heat production as small as possible, is that of the flow of a steady current through a uniform wire ; in this case the rate of heat production is a minimum when the current is uniformly distributed over the cross section of the wire.

Página 465 - ... alum. Since the per cent of water present varies continuously with the vapor pressure it is generally concluded that the water of the zeolites is not analogous to the water of crystallization of most hydrated salts, but resembles more nearly the intermixture which occurs in solid solutions. In fig. 6 two curves of heulandite are given. The sections were about the same thickness, and the great difference in transparency is due to the fact that the crystals were of different homogeneity and transparency....
Página 4 - If any part of the retina is excited with intermittent light recurring periodically and regularly in the same way, and if the period is sufficiently short, a continuous impression will result, which is the same as that which would result if the total light received during each period were uniformly distributed throughout the whole period.
Página 127 - E are the complete elliptic integrals of the first and second kinds respectively and r is a general radius within or around the circular pressure region which is of radius R.
Página 34 - ... a rotating sectored disk, is verified for white light for all total angular openings between 288° and 10°, to within a possible error of 0.3 per cent, which probably expresses the limit of accuracy of the experiments. (2) The observed deviations from the law for red, green, and blue light are of the same order of magnitude as those for white light, and hence Talbot's law is verified for red, green, and blue light, though not to such a high accuracy as for white light. Moreover, a difference...
Página 467 - Group II. — Minerals Containing Water of Constitution. The first part of this group contains minerals in which the oxygen and hydrogen are present in the form of the univalent hydroxyl radical OH, and which are known as hydroxides. The hydroxides when heated also yield water, but it is a characteristic that they must be strongly heated before they are decomposed. From previous work, already mentioned, we would expect an absorption band at 3 ij, for hydroxides.
