Microvolts Sentence Examples

The chief difficulty, as usual, was the determination of the gradient, which depended on a difference of potential of the order of 20 microvolts between two junctions inserted in small holes 2 cms. apart in a bar 1 .

The Peltier coefficient may also be expressed in volts or microvolts, and may be regarded as the measure of an E.M.F.

Like the Peltier coefficient, it may be measured in joules or calories per ampere-second per degree, or more conveniently and simply in microvolts per degree.

If the circuit is open, as represented in the diagram, the flow will cease as soon as it has raised the potential of the iron 3844 microvolts above that of the lead.

If the circuit is cut at this point, there remains a difference of potential E =1184 microvolts, the resultant E.M.F.
