Fig. 6 the water pressure will cease and engine A would stop,but its fly-wheel will carry the crank over the center asit would in any kind of an engine. If we now push the piston C backwards towards G, thepressure will force the water up through pipe E into the 34 MOTION PICTURE ELECTRICITY chamber—pushing the piston D and piston rod K towardsI—completing the backward motion of the crank, shaftand fly-wheel of the motor A. It is evident that by mov-ing the piston in the cylinder B back and forth the fly-wheel of the motor A can be kept in continuous motion,as the water pressure changes alternately from side I toside H of motor piston D and vice-versa. Here we have the simplest form of an alternating cur-rent water system in which the pump B is the dynamo ascompared with an electric system; pipes E and F are thewires and A is the alternating current motor. The processof operation is extremely simple, and the illustrations canbe easily understood by reference to the above descriptio
