Polarization :: Polarization (n.) An effect produced upon the plates of a voltaic battery, or the electrodes in an electrolytic cell, by the deposition upon them of the gases liberated by the action of the current. It is chiefly due to the hydrogen, and results in an increase of the resistance, and the setting up of an opposing electro-motive force, both of which tend materially to weaken the current of the battery, or that passing through the cell..

Water Battery :: Water battery () A voltaic battery in which the exciting fluid is water.

Anelectrode :: Anelectrode (n.) The positive pole of a voltaic battery.

Short-circuit :: Short-circuit (v. t.) To join, as the electrodes of a battery or dynamo or any two points of a circuit, by a conductor of low resistance..

Mask :: Mask (n.) A screen for a battery.

Relay :: Relay (n.) In various forms of telegraphic apparatus, a magnet which receives the circuit current, and is caused by it to bring into into action the power of a local battery for performing the work of making the record; also, a similar device by which the current in one circuit is made to open or close another circuit in which a current is passing..

Reply :: Reply (v. i.) Figuratively, to do something in return for something done; as, to reply to a signal; to reply to the fire of a battery..

Disruptive :: Disruptive (a.) Causing, or tending to cause, disruption; caused by disruption; breaking through; bursting; as, the disruptive discharge of an electrical battery..

Parade :: Parade (v. t.) An assembly and orderly arrangement or display of troops, in full equipments, for inspection or evolutions before some superior officer; a review of troops. Parades are general, regimental, or private (troop, battery, or company), according to the force assembled..

Battery :: Battery (v. t.) A number of similar machines or devices in position; an apparatus consisting of a set of similar parts; as, a battery of boilers, of retorts, condensers, etc..

Chemiglyphic :: Chemiglyphic (a.) Engraved by a voltaic battery.

Electro-tint :: Electro-tint (n.) A style of engraving in relief by means of voltaic electricity. A picture is drawn on a metallic plate with some material which resists the fluids of a battery; so that, in electro-typing, the parts not covered by the varnish, etc., receive a deposition of metal, and produce the required copy in intaglio. A cast of this is then the plate for printing..

Rheophore :: Rheophore (n.) One of the poles of a voltaic battery; an electrode.

Battery :: Battery (v. t.) The act of battering or beating.

Cell :: Cell (n.) A jar of vessel, or a division of a compound vessel, for holding the exciting fluid of a battery..

Bunsen''s Battery :: Bunsen's battery () Alt. of Bunsen's burne.

Anode :: Anode (n.) The positive pole of an electric battery, or more strictly the electrode by which the current enters the electrolyte on its way to the other pole; -- opposed to cathode..

Bunsen''s Burner :: Bunsen's burner () See under Battery, and Burner..

Battery :: Battery (v. t.) The pitcher and catcher together.

Battery :: Battery (v. t.) An apparatus for generating voltaic electricity.
