...is acted upon by a force of one dyne. As by definition unit pole acts on an equal and similar pole at a distance of one centimetre with a force of one dyne, it follows that unit pole causes unit field at unit distance. As intensity of field is measured by...

...one watt in one second. MAGNETISM. A unit pole is that which repels another similar and equal pole at a distance of one centimetre with a force of one dyne. If P=the strength of a pole, it will repel an equal pole at the distance L with a force — s or pa...

...one watt in one second. B2 MAGNETISM. A unit pole is that which repels another similar and equal pole at a distance of one centimetre with a force of one dyne. If P = the strength of a pole, it will repel an p2 equal pole at the distance L with a force — or...

...In other words, that magnetic pole is of unit strength that repels a pole of equal strength placed at a distance of one centimetre with a force of one dyne. (6) Definition of Magnetic Field. — The influence of any magnet extends all round it, so that if...

...system, therefore, is derived from a charge of electricity that will repel an equal charge of like sign at a distance of one centimetre, with a force of one dyne, or similarly attract an equal charge of unlike sign. The corresponding electro-magnetic unit is a magnetic...

...definite distance. The unit quantity is that which will repel an equal quantity of the same sign placed at a distance of one centimetre with a force of one dyne. It is equally true that the unit quantity attracts the unity quantity of the opposite kind with the...

...adopt the following definition: a magnetic pole has the unit strength when it repels an equal pole at a distance of one centimetre with a force of one dyne. Thus two unit poles one centimetre apart exert on one another a force 1/981 as great as the earth's...

...resident in the poles. A pole of unit strength is one which attracts or repels another equal pole, at a distance of one centimetre, with a force of one dyne. The magnetic moment of a magnet is the strength of either pole multiplied by the distance between the...

...magnetic pole, in the CGS system, is a magnetic pole of such strength that it will repel an equal pole, at a distance of one centimetre, with a force of one dyne. The intensity of a magnetic field, in this system, is numerically equal to the number of dynes of force...

...this it will follow that the unit charge will be that charge which repels a similar charge in air, at a distance of one centimetre, with a force of one dyne. A system of electrical measurement on this basis has actually been formulated, and is known as the...
