Electro-kinetics :: Electro-kinetics (n.) That branch of electrical science which treats of electricity in motion.

Electro-negative :: Electro-negative (n.) A body which passes to the positive pole in electrolysis.

Electro-motion :: Electro-motion (n.) The motion of electricity or its passage from one metal to another in a voltaic circuit; mechanical action produced by means of electricity.

Electro-telegraphy :: Electro-telegraphy (n.) The art or science of constructing or using the electric telegraph; the transmission of messages by means of the electric telegraph.

Inducteous :: Inducteous (a.) Rendered electro-polar by induction, or brought into the opposite electrical state by the influence of inductive bodies..

Electro-metallurgy :: Electro-metallurgy (n.) The act or art precipitating a metal electro-chemical action, by which a coating is deposited, on a prepared surface, as in electroplating and electrotyping; galvanoplasty..

Electro-capillary :: Electro-capillary (a.) Pert. to, or caused by, electro-capillarity..

Electro-gilt :: Electro-gilt (a.) Gilded by means of voltaic electricity.

Chlorous :: Chlorous (a.) Pertaining to, or resembling, the electro-negative character of chlorine; hence, electro-negative; -- opposed to basylous or zincous..

Subsextuple :: Subsesqui- () A prefix (also used adjectively) denoting the combination of constituents (especially electro-negative and electro-positive bodies) in the proportion of two to three; as, a subsesqui acetate, i. e., a salt having two equivalents of acetic acid to three of the base..

Electro-negative :: Electro-negative (a.) Negative; nonmetallic; acid; -- opposed to positive, metallic, or basic..

Electro-dynamic :: Electro-dynamic (a.) Alt. of Electro-dynamica.

Electro-engraving :: Electro-engraving (n.) The art or process of engraving by means of electricity.

Electro-ballistics :: Electro-ballistics (n.) The art or science of measuring the force or velocity of projectiles by means of electricity.

Armature :: Armature (n.) A piece of soft iron used to connect the two poles of a magnet, or electro-magnet, in order to complete the circuit, or to receive and apply the magnetic force. In the ordinary horseshoe magnet, it serves to prevent the dissipation of the magnetic force..

Electro-gilding :: Electro-gilding (n.) The art or process of gilding copper, iron, etc., by means of voltaic electricity..

Basylous :: Basylous (a.) Pertaining to, or having the nature of, a basyle; electro-positive; basic; -- opposed to chlorous..

Volt :: Volt (n.) The unit of electro-motive force; -- defined by the International Electrical Congress in 1893 and by United States Statute as, that electro-motive force which steadily applied to a conductor whose resistance is one ohm will produce a current of one ampere. It is practically equivalent to / the electro-motive force of a standard Clark's cell at a temperature of 15? C..

Electro-positive :: Electro-positive (n.) A body which passes to the negative pole in electrolysis.

Electro-chemistry :: Electro-chemistry (n.) That branch of science which treats of the relation of electricity to chemical changes.
