ELECTRIC DISCHARGE WITH THE CHLORIDE OF SILVER BATTERY. 
93 
Fig-. 83. 
It will be seen by the following table that while the distances increase as 1,2.. . 10, 
the pressures have to decrease in a greater ratio, namely, as 1, 2 . . . 10 multiplied by 
a factor greater than unity in order to permit a discharge to take place. 
Col. I.
