...this is satisfactory in tractors and special automobile engines in warm climates in summer," observed Robert Thompson Haslam, vice president of Standard Oil Development Co. He foresees industrial alcohol made from waste refinery gases. One of the largest current uses for these gases is in the manufacture of hydrogen. Cottonseed Gasoline. Cottonseed makes good hog and cow food and palatable cooking oil. If the oil is fed into a metal coil at 900° F. and 150 Ib. per sq. in. pressure, it breaks down into gasoline. Cottonseed
Irving Langmuir, 51, General Electric associate director of research, Popular Science Monthly's, $10,000 prize; in general for his many researches on fundamental physical and chemical subjects, in particular for his inventions of hydrogen arc welding and the gas-filled incandescent lamp which saves the U. S., it is estimated, $1,000,000 per night on its $1,000,000,000 per year electric light bill...
Attaching weights to the animal increases the pull, while attaching a hydrogen-filled balloon decreases the gravitational effect. The results of the experiment enable the investigator to glean some information of the different nervous mechanisms that enable the animal to discriminate the changes that are exerted upon it by the changing gravitational forces...
...proton, which is 1,845 times as heavy as an electron, might make an electron its satellite. Such a simple system of one electron revolving around one proton makes up a common atom of hydrogen, simplest of the 92 elements. (Helium, next simplest, has an alpha particle for its core, two electrons for satellites. Other atoms have more protons, more electrons...
That is the neutron. It lacks electrical characteristics. The charges of proton and electron have bound and balanced each other. A particle has been formed halfway between nascent electricity and atomic hydrogen. It hops out of radioactive substances as do alpha particles...
