Y . if THE-rSl:lAM.R0CK' - P N EVERYDAY OCCURRENCES A Some Answers to the Questions on a Physics Quiz. The potential of a point is the work required to bring a unit positive charge from 'afiinityi up to that point. The ,answer to a vector problem: By 'graft' I found that the man was just three miles from l1is starting pointy To .satisfy Archimedes: The volume of a sphere must be great enough to dis- place its own volume. V701-k is the applied force necessary to achieve moment of inerita. A condenser is a device for changing amperes to volts and volts to amperes. YVe can not gain work by the use-of a machine because work is defined as any- thing which tends to go against gravity. Time is a unit which cannot be gained because of its absolute consistency from a theoretical standpoint. 1 Pressure is a force exerted by an object due to the lack of space with it. - 1 1 . Mr. Howard has developed an entirely new theory about the reversal of current in a motor field. He says that in order to reverse the current you only have to interchange the leads on the field rheostat. ' Horiuchi had almost fallen for a certain young damsel in Kansas City, in fact he had spent many pleasant moments with her during the holidays.
