that the effort to revert of the complex inequalities, is more than one thousand billion times greater than that of the gravitating inequalities.
The cohesions and surface tensions, on which the strength of our structures depend, are the result of the manner in which the efforts to approach vary, when within distances which are small, as compared to the dimensions of the molecules, and are thus the complements of gravitation.
14. The cause of light.
Although we have already sketched the transmission of light it is only now that we come to the cause of light.
The institution of the waves of light follows as the result of the disruptive reversion of the complex inequalities, or electric-discharges; the recoil from which sets up a vibration, in the medium, which is exhausted in initiating waves of light and heat.
Thus far the sketch of the new ideas has included only those for which there exists sufficient evidence to admit of definite quantitative analysis.
Nevertheless these quantitative results show
