A buzzer and battery are connected in series with P. Thisapparatus afifords a source of electromotive force for obtaining balance of thebridge. To carry out the measurement, the buzzer is set into vibration and the values of R-1 andR-2 varied until complete silence or a minimum of sound is heard in the telephone P-1. Thevarious quantities are then related as folows: C-x R-2 R-2 = or C-x = X C-n C-n R-1 R-1 If condensers C-x and C-n have different dielectrics, complete silence cannot be obtained,hence a minimum of sound is an indication of balance. To carry out the measurement forlow values of capacity, the total resistance of the sliding wire bridge, need not exceed 110 ohms. If the aeria
