Thus by transposing the equation (3) we have for the tangent galvanometer tt_ E2?m m In fact the standard of electric potential is second only in importance to that of thestandard of electric resistance; and the use of such a standard, combined with an auxiliarybattery in the manner described in the foregoing paper, admits of a variety of applicationswhich it is believed will be found of great value in electrical research. In conclusion I have to acknowledge the great assistance I have received from Taylor, , and Dr. Alexander Muirhead, in conducting these experiments. 14 ME.
