Professor Trowbridge has lately been able to prove by this apparatus that the length of the spark is accurately proportional to the voltage. This fact, which has long been doubted by various German scientists, can be used to ascertain the voltage required to send a flash of lightning a given distance...
...repeatedly to show the skeleton of the hand. An idea of its power can be had from the fact that it has a voltage of 1,200,000, and the voltage required to run an electric car is only 500. This instrument can evolve a spark fifty inches in length and in doing so gives a loud report like lightning...
