Electro-metric :: Electro-metric (a.) Alt. of Electro-metrica.

Electro-telegraphy :: Electro-telegraphy (n.) The art or science of constructing or using the electric telegraph; the transmission of messages by means of the electric telegraph.

Armature :: Armature (n.) A piece of soft iron used to connect the two poles of a magnet, or electro-magnet, in order to complete the circuit, or to receive and apply the magnetic force. In the ordinary horseshoe magnet, it serves to prevent the dissipation of the magnetic force..

Positive :: Positive (a.) Electro-positive.

Volt :: Volt (n.) The unit of electro-motive force; -- defined by the International Electrical Congress in 1893 and by United States Statute as, that electro-motive force which steadily applied to a conductor whose resistance is one ohm will produce a current of one ampere. It is practically equivalent to / the electro-motive force of a standard Clark's cell at a temperature of 15? C..

Electro-telegraphic :: Electro-telegraphic (a.) Pertaining to the electric telegraph, or by means of it..

Electro-kinetic :: Electro-kinetic (a.) Of or pertaining to electro-kinetics.

Electro-physiology :: Electro-physiology (n.) That branch of physiology which treats of electric phenomena produced through physiological agencies.

Electro-physiological :: Electro-physiological (a.) Pertaining to electrical results produced through physiological agencies, or by change of action in a living organism..

Ohm :: Ohm (n.) The standard unit in the measure of electrical resistance, being the resistance of a circuit in which a potential difference of one volt produces a current of one ampere. As defined by the International Electrical Congress in 1893, and by United States Statute, it is a resistance substantially equal to 109 units of resistance of the C.G.S. system of electro-magnetic units, and is represented by the resistance offered to an unvarying electric current by a column of mercury at the tempera

Electro-chronograph :: Electro-chronograph (n.) An instrument for obtaining an accurate record of the time at which any observed phenomenon occurs, or of its duration. It has an electro-magnetic register connected with a clock. See Chronograph..

Electro-polar :: Electro-polar (a.) Possessing electrical polarity; positively electrified at one end, or on one surface, and negatively at the other; -- said of a conductor..

Potential :: Potential (n.) The energy of an electrical charge measured by its power to do work; hence, the degree of electrification as referred to some standard, as that of the earth; electro-motive force..

Electro-negative :: Electro-negative (n.) A body which passes to the positive pole in electrolysis.

Basylous :: Basylous (a.) Pertaining to, or having the nature of, a basyle; electro-positive; basic; -- opposed to chlorous..

Electro-dynamometer :: Electro-dynamometer (n.) An instrument for measuring the strength of electro-dynamic currents.

Electro-engraving :: Electro-engraving (n.) The art or process of engraving by means of electricity.

Chlorous :: Chlorous (a.) Pertaining to, or resembling, the electro-negative character of chlorine; hence, electro-negative; -- opposed to basylous or zincous..

Electro-dynamical :: Electro-dynamical (a.) Pertaining to the movements or force of electric or galvanic currents; dependent on electric force.

Henry :: Henry (n.) The unit of electric induction; the induction in a circuit when the electro-motive force induced in this circuit is one volt, while the inducing current varies at the rate of one ampere a second..
