Cut-off :: Cut-off (n.) Any device for stopping or changing a current, as of grain or water in a spout..

Rheometry :: Rheometry (n.) The measurement of the force or intensity of currents.

Intercurrent :: Intercurrent (n.) Something intervening.

Switched :: Switch (n.) A mechanical device for shifting an electric current to another circuit.

Electro-magnetism :: Electro-magnetism (n.) The magnetism developed by a current of electricity; the science which treats of the development of magnetism by means of voltaic electricity, and of the properties or actions of the currents evolved..

Volta-electrometer :: Volta-electrometer (n.) An instrument for the exact measurement of electric currents.

Electro-bioscopy :: Electro-bioscopy (n.) A method of determining the presence or absence of life in an animal organism with a current of electricity, by noting the presence or absence of muscular contraction..

Solenoid :: Solenoid (n.) An electrodynamic spiral having the conjuctive wire turned back along its axis, so as to neutralize that component of the effect of the current which is due to the length of the spiral, and reduce the whole effect to that of a series of equal and parallel circular currents. When traversed by a current the solenoid exhibits polarity and attraction or repulsion, like a magnet..

Frue Vanner :: Frue vanner () A moving, inclined, endless apron on which ore is concentrated by a current of water; a kind of buddle..

Concurrent :: Concurrent (n.) One of the supernumerary days of the year over fifty-two complete weeks; -- so called because they concur with the solar cycle, the course of which they follow..

Quotation :: Quotation (n.) The naming or publishing of the current price of stocks, bonds, or any commodity; also the price named..

Thermoelectrometer :: Thermoelectrometer (n.) An instrument for measuring the strength of an electric current in the heat which it produces, or for determining the heat developed by such a current..

Cooperation :: Cooperation (n.) The act of cooperating, or of operating together to one end; joint operation; concurrent effort or labor..

Rheochord :: Rheochord (n.) A metallic wire used for regulating the resistance of a circuit, or varying the strength of an electric current, by inserting a greater or less length of it in the circuit..

Escape :: Escape (n.) Leakage or loss of currents from the conducting wires, caused by defective insulation..

Angelet :: Angelet (n.) A small gold coin formerly current in England; a half angel.
