...made as before, and when it is made, the conductor, c, is found to revolve around the vertical magnet, to the right or to the left, according to the direction of the current. How, then, are we to explain these extraordinary F 2 movements ? M. Ampere, we answer, has...

...wood to move freely over each other. The movement of the upper one was shown by au index, that pointed to the right or to the left according to the direction of the motion. This little apparatus, when placed under the hands of a practised table-turner, had the curious...

...in a heap, on a table, in front of each operator. From five to ten are rolled towards this person by the forefinger of the left hand ; this separates them...space from each other, and each in its turn is pushed lengthways to the right or to the left, according as its eye is on the right or the left hand. This...

...wliich conveys electricity, it will indicate a tendency to deviate from 'its natural position, either to the right or to the left, according to the direction of the current; and if the current be sufficiently strong, the needle will place itself at right angles to...

...directly over and parallel to a magnetic needle (Fig. 361), the north pole of the needle is deflected to the right or to the left, according to the direction of the current. If the conducting-wire is placed under the needle, it is also deflected, but in the opposite...

...inclined to the vertical plane, the resistance of the air operating on the inclined surface will press it to the right or to the left, according to the direction of such inclination. The causes of the axis thus deviating from the vertical plane are somewhat complex,...

...needle has a tendency to place itself at right angles to the electric current, being deflected or turned to the right or to the left according to the direction of the current. The needle therefore can be made to move either to the right or to the left by reversing the...
