Where t is the temperature in centesimal degrees, h the height of the mercury in 
the barometer in millimetres corrected and reduced to 0°C. 
For the platinum of which the weights, A, B, C, &c. are made log A= 1*32564. 
The resulting values of vSf , AV and log AV are, —

Means, giving to the third, fourth and fifth results twice the weight of the first
