666] By exper. of P. 69 [Art. 539], it appeared that the charge of tin cyl. was to that of D + E when electrified very weakly as 1·28 to 1, and by P. 70 [Art. 539] as 1·24 to 1. By mean as 1.26 to 1†.

By mean of P. 76 [Art. 545], the charge of the same cyl. was to that

of D + E when electrified in the usual degree as 1.33 to 1.

By mean of P. 77 [Art. 546], it came out as 1.37 to 1, but this last can not be depended on, as wire for making communication with ground was forgot to be fixed.

667] It should seem that the charge of D and E is increased 18 by spreading of el. when elect. in usual degree, therefore if we suppose that the spreading is insensible when electrified in very small degree, the charge of a glass plate is less in proportion to that of another body when electrified with usual degree el. than when elect. with a very small one in ratio of 1.26 to 1.51, or of 5 to 6.

The diam. was corrected on supposition that elect. spreads 07 if the thickness of glass = 21, and '09 if thickness = '08, and so in proportion in other thicknesses.

The correction of the diameter is the same as would be used according to the preceding rule to a glass plate of 2° the thickness, only the correction used is never less than 1 inch.

The white jar and cyl. and the 3 green cyl. are corrected for the spreading of the electricity in the same manner as the flat plates, but the 2 therm. tubes are not.

The 3 plates A, B and C placed over each other with bits of lead between contained 8.9 inc. el. less than K or L, therefore its charge =74 inc. The 3rd part of the charge of A, B, or C is 72.6 inc.

By mean it contains 67 less, therefore charge = 74.5.

The thickness of the 3 plates together is 6309. The computed charge of a plate of that thickness with a coating 6.6 in diam. supposing the el. to spread 07 inc. is 9.00, and the real charge of such a plate according to the mean ratio of the real and computed charges of D, E, and F is 74.2.

The real charge of this plate is to its computed, supposing the el. to spread 07 inc., as 2.89 to 1.

The charge of this plate is the same as that of a glass one 345 thick, supposing ratio of real and computed charge the same as in A or B.

The charge of plate glass of the same sort as Nairne's 634 thick (id est, equal to the sum of the thicknesses of the two glass plates and a glass plate equiv. to the rosin) = 73.3, supposing the el. to spread the same on this plate as on the rosin.
