128. These valnes are a mean of the results obtained Ijy Lord Rayleigh from the wave lenuth of ripples (Phil. Mag., 1890). aud by Hall from the direct measurement of the tension of a flat film (Phil. Mag., 1893). ^Smithsonian Physical Tables, 1896, p. 136. 11 to be 100, the viscosity at 25° C. is 50, at 30° is 45, and at 50° about 31. This great variation iu viscosity with change of temperature is ilUis- trated iu the flow of water through soils, which Kiug ' found iu his leach- ing experiments... but failed to explain. He observed the rate of flow at 9° C to be 0.15 grams per minute, while the rate of flow at 32.5° C. was 10.54 grams per minute. The ratio of the two rates of flow is 1.71. Now the viscosity of water at 0° C. as compared with water at 0° C. is 75.G, and 32.5° is 42.5. The ratio of the two viscosities is 1.77, which iigrees very well with the ratio of the observed rates of flow. The viscosity of gases in opposition to that of fluids increases with increase of temperature.
