. The principles of physics. Fio. 113. Experiment 6. — A and B (Fig. Ill) are two bottomless vessels whichcan be alternately screwed to a supporting ring C (Fig. 112). The rmgis itself fastened by means of a clamp to the rim of a wooden waterpail. 150 MOLAR DYNAMICS. A circular disk of metal D is supported by a rod connected with onearm of the balance-beam E. When the weight F is applied to the otherarm of the beam, the disk T) is drawn up against the ring so as to supplya bottom for the vessel above. Take first the vessel A, screw it to thering and apply the weight to the beam as in Fig. 114.

Take first the vessel A, screw it to thering and apply the weight to the beam as in Fig. 114. Pour water slowlyinto the vessel, moving the index a up the rod so as to keep it just at thesurface of the water, until the downward pressure of the water upon thebottom tilts the beam, and pushes the bottom down from the ring, andallows some of the water to fall into the pail. Eemove vessel A, andattach B to the ring as in Fig. 113. Pour water as before into vessel B;when the surface of the water reaches the index a, the
