... the charged particles. Now if we know the amount of expansion produced we can calculate the cooling of the gas, and therefore the amount of water deposited. Thus, we know the volume of water in the form of drops, so that if we know the volume of one... Electricity and Matter - Page 76by Joseph John Thomson - 1904 - 162 pagesFull view - About this book
