About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1900 Excerpt: ...steel it will retain more or less magnetic power. 265. Now, for want of a better method of illustrating this peculiarity, as we have no magnet of greater power than the needle, let us test the earth for a primary. Experiment i. For this experiment we will need some soft iron filings, a bar of hardened steel or even a piece of gas pipe, which is quite hard iron. Hold this level, in an east and west position, and strike one end a smart blow with a hammer. Now dip it in the iron filings and we shall find it has little or no magnetism, at least in its length. Now point it downward at an angle corresponding to the latitude where you are, so as to point to the actual north magnetic pole as nearly as possible, and strike the end of the bar, as before. You will find that the bar has acquired a quite perceptible amount of magnetism; that either end will attract the iron filings, tacks or other bits of iron, and that the phenomena of attraction and repulsion will be shown by bringing it near the compass needle. Ex. z. Now, having marked the end which attracts the south end of the needle with paint or chalk as the N pole, we again point it to the north pole of the earth, but in a reversed position, and strike it again as before. On testing for magnetism we will find that the particles of iron adhere as before, but what we marked as the N pole of our magnet has become the S pole, and repels the end of the needle it attracted before. Ex. j. Now we will communicate this magnetism to a second magnet by contact. Draw the blade of a pocket knife slowly over the end of the bar several times, but always in the same direction--say from hinge to point. It will become a magnet in a limited degree, capable of picking up the iron filings. A knitting or darning needle may be treate...
