M. F. Of known strength was applied to the latter. The resistance of the wire was then measured at a known temperature and its temperature coefficient was also measured ; therefore, when in the course of a heating experiment the temperature of the water was read, the resistance of the wire could be calculated. Griffiths found also that most rapid and thorough stirring of the water was necessary in order to secure consistent or satisfactory results. He designed a most efficient stirrer which mad...e about 2000 revolutions per minute, the rise in temperature produced by the stirrer alone being in some cases equi- valent to 10 per cent, of the whole work spent in raising the temperature. The necessary correction, owing to this, was ascertained by a series of preliminary experiments. " Griffiths' apparatus consisted of a platinum wire (diameter 0'004 in. (O'OIO cm. ), length 13 in. (33 cm. ), Lecture III 79 resistance about 9 ohms) coiled inside a cylindrical calori- meter, 8 cm. In height and 8 cm.
