Free and Forced Oscillations.

When pendulum or any kind of
weight is suspended by cord and
struck blow it will swing back and
forth a certain number of times per
second. depending upon the length
Of the cord. The number Of swings
per second is the rate Of vibration
and will~remain constant as long as
the length of the cord is not altered.
And this is regardless of the fact
that the pendulum may only swing
for a fraction of a second before COM
ing to rest. The rate remains the
same. The same thing would happen
il the weight were drawn to one
side and let go to produce the swing
ing. Perhaps it Is clearer in this
latter case to see how the pendulum
Is allowed to oscillate rather than
being forced to do SO. The swings
or oscillations are free. since their
frequency depends in no way upon
the blow or displacement which
starts them. An electrical circuit
containing capacity and inductance,
usually in the form of a condenser
and a coil of wire. respectively. may
also be allowed to oscillate by charg-
ing the condenser and allowing it to
discharge. The frequency of the
alternating current or oscillations
thus created depends only upon the
capacity and inductance of the circuit
in actual practice. 1t Is entirely in
dependent of the amount of charge

The oscillations are, therefore, free

If the pendulum were held in the
hand and moved back and forth the
frequency of the swings would be
whatever the frequency of the hand
movement is-that is. the pendulum
would be forced to swing back and
forth with the movement of the hand,
regardless of the length of the sus-
pending cord. The oscillations OF
the pendulum are. of course, forced
oscillations. In the same manner If

may have forced oscillations in a

TRACE "FRyING NOISES"
TO DRY %" BATTERIES

The twenty-year-old story Of the
motorist who had several parts OF
his car left over after he had finished
reassembling it is being paralleled
by many radio fans these days. They
are on the trail of the noises in the
know-for if you're a radio enthusi-
asst you have undoubtedly heard them
too. Those noises usually go right Oh
after the thorough overhauling has
been completed.
Some Of those on the inside" have
traced the noise" to the polariza-
ton which is constantly taking place
in the commonly used dry ''B" bat
terry. A liquid battery, it is said, does
not produce these characteristic
sounds because this internal action
does not take place.

STORAGE BATTERY
FOR RADIO PASSE
Bureau of Standards Finds
Way to Eliminate Danger
and Expense.

Elimination of the storage battery.
the most expensive part of the home
made radio receiving set, is now pos
sible. according to the bureau Of
standards of the Department of Com
merce In a statement released today.
The receiving sets which are now
used in receiving radio signals, music,
etc, over distances of perhaps hum
dreds of miles require a storage bat
terry to light the 1laments of the
electron tubes. The battery must be
charged from time to time, it is bulk! y
and heavy, the acid in it is source
of danger and damage to the house
held, and altogether it constitutes a
drawback to the general use of radio
sets.
Connected Mt Lamp Socket.
The receiving set developed by the
bureau of standards NIKE, ,onn.e-
ton with the ordinary electric lamp
socket. The set may be used with
any type of antenna, i.e.. with the
ordinary elevated wire antenna, a coil
antenna, or special forms of antenna-
By special modes of connection. it Is
even possible to use the electric light
wires themselves as the antenna. but
the signals are likely to come in with
less strength when this is done.
The receiving set consists essen
TALLY of an amplifier with minor
auxiliary parts. This is described in
paper which has been prepared and
will be published by the bureau of
standards about May 1, and sold at
5 cents copy. A few details OF the
amplifier, which utilizes 60-cycle cur
rent supply for both filaments and
plates of the electron tubes, are as
follows: This amplifier has three
radio-frequcncy stages and two audio-
frequency stages. and uses a crystal
detector. The 60-cycle current. when
used in an ordinary amplifier circuit,
introduces a strong 60-cycle note
which offers serious interference.
Practically Eliminated.
This has been practically eliminated
densers and special grid leaks of
comparatively low resistance. tele-
phone transformer in the output cir
cult. and crystal detector, instead Of
electron tube detector. In the final
form Of the amplifier there is only a
jectionable. The amplifcation OBJ
tanned with alternating current sup
ply was as good as that obtained with
the same amplifier used with the
direct current supply. The complete
unit is light, compact and portable.
For the reception of damped waves.
the amplifier as constructed worked
most satisfactorily for wave lengths
from 200 to $50 meters. This range
was determined by the working range
of the radio-frequency transformers
used. BY using suitable radio-fre-
ouency transformers. it is expected
that the amplifier will be effective
for the reception of damped waves
and undamped waves as long as 10000
meters. For the reception of I'M
damped waves, separate heterodyne
should be employed. The paper gives
values of the condensers, resistors
and inductors used.
