We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.
HANDBOOK OF PROJECTION FOR

In what manner may the capacity of a condenser be altered? 1022
Is electricity really "condensed" in a condenser? 1023
Vacuum Tube as an Amplifier
What does the "amplifying tube" really do? 1025
What happens when a filament is sealed in a vacuum
and an electric current sent through it? 1025
What is an "electron" ? 1025
How do electrons thrown off by a hot filament travel ? 1025 In what manner are electrons made to "amplify"
current? 1025

tube? 1026
Describe the amplifying tube 1026
Is the plate, the grid and the filament positively or
negatively charged ? ' 1028
What is the relative speed of electric action as compared with the speed of sound ? 1028
Does an ordinary incandescent globe filament throw off electrons and, if so, why cannot it be used for
amplifying ? 1028
Describe the action of the filament, the plate and the
grid in detail 1029
Upon what will the flow of electrons from filament
to plate be directly dependent ? 1030
What are amplifying tubes called in Europe? 1031
Are amplifying tubes connected in series or parallel? 1031 How is it that while a steady negative voltage is applied to the grid, the grid voltage nevertheless
is vibrating or fluctuating ? 1031
In what manner would you clean the contact stud
at the base of an amplifying tube? 1046
In certain types of installations the amplifying tubes are held in suspension by springs. What precaution is necessary ? 1047
The Vacuum Tube as a Rectifier
Why should an amplifying tube never be used for
rectifying current ? 1033
What is the frequency of most commercial electric
current? 1033
Why is a full wave action called a "cycle" ? 1034
Why will not electrons flow from plate to filament? 1034 If a tube with a grid be used for rectifying current, what should be done with or about the grid?.... 1035 xviii
