RATIO OF THE ELECTROSTATIC TO THE ELECTROMAGNETIC UNIT OF 

 ELECTRICITY (V) IN RELATION TO THE VELOCITY OF LICHT. 



♦ The results in this column correspond to a value of the B. A. ohm =: .98664 X 10* cms. per sec. If we neglect 

 the first four determinations, and also that of Exner and Shida, because of their large deviation from the mean, the 

 remaining determinations give a mean value of 2.9889 + .0137, a value which practically agrees with the best deter- 

 minations of the velocity of light. (Cf. Table i8i.) 

 t Given as between 2.98 X lo'" and 3.00 X lo^".
