SCIENCE.

Lighn,ny Rods.-NIr. II. $. Brough
has been discussing I'm The Phiiosophi-
cal Mdga.ine the proper sectional areas
Of iron and copper lightning rods. SO
far as nero conductivity is concerned,
comparatively thin wire of either
metal would suffice for the loftcst con-
ductOr; but such thin cOductOr
would be dangerous, because 1t would
be fused by Il heavy discharge of light
ming. Iron is more liable to be fused
than copper; and tho point Mr.. Brough
sought to determine was tho relative
sectional areas of rods of the two
metals so that neither would be more
liable to fuse than the other. Ordi-
narily 1t is stated that the iron rod
should have four times the sectional
area of the copper rod. Mr.. BrOugh
shows that these areas should be as to
3; or. since rods are invariably circular
and circular areas are to each other as
the square of their diameter, the diam
ctcrs ofir and copper rods of equal
effectiveness should be In tho proper
ton Of l.63 to |. Iron is therefore
much the cheaper metal for lightning
rods.
