Chapter 617: Something About 'Electricity'
As long as you know the idea of solving all problems, then it is easy to find a correct answer.
This is the case for measuring voltage and current, and by calculating and formulating a standard, and then measuring it according to this standard, we can arrive at a standard unit that meets the world's standards.
In fact, a few months have passed, and the old scholar Raditz and the old mage Porter have not only measured the standard units of voltage and current, but also the resistance of most materials, and then improved the generator, and are now preparing to start researching the manufacture of electric lights.
The standard units of voltage and current have been calculated, the generators have been modified, and the next step is to make a lamp that can operate at the rated voltage, and then their business will take a big step forward.
As long as they can do it, then from now on, there are two kinds of energy that people can use!
Although magic is still needed to make generators and electric lights, when 'electricity' is developed, they will no longer need to borrow the power of magic, and they will be able to make these things with machines powered by electricity alone.
But Raditz and Potter couldn't see that day, and even now when they built the generator, they felt a little overwhelmed.
When they were young, one of them was a down-and-out scholar and the other was a down-and-out mage, and they had no funds to study anything, so they could only make ends meet through what they had learned.
In old age, there were finally people who were willing to support their research and show them the way, but they were already a little overwhelmed.
Even if they stay up late, they can't afford to stay up all night, not only can't stay up all night, but also pay attention to taking care of their bodies, otherwise they may not even be able to see those magnificent scenes in the future.
When the maid knew about this, the early spring had almost passed, and in order to show her respect for their research results, she also brought people to the experimental area to comfort the two old men.
To put it mildly, the overall medical conditions in the world of Assatom are not good, and almost all of those who can live to old age are disease-free, and if they are sick, it is really a mountain of illness, and this disease may never get up again.
The old scholar and the old mage are not young, and with the daily hard work, their physical condition is not very good.
After a few pleasantries, the maid followed them to observe the new generator after the renovation was completed.
Truth be told, even if it's a so-called 'new' generator, the generator still looks very rudimentary, except for a metal casing that looks okay, and the structure inside is unusually rudimentary, although it can function normally and continue to generate electricity, but the output power is not strong enough.
Of course, this 'power is not strong enough' is only relative, if electromagnets can be used instead of permanent magnets, then the output power of the generator can also be stronger.
However, it seems that it will take some time to replace permanent magnets with electromagnets with the current simple appearance of this generator.
After observing for a while, looking at the faint smile on the faces of the old scholar and the old mage, the maid sighed slightly: "Mr. Raditz, Mr. Potter, here, I want to ask you a question. ”
The main purpose of this trip is to comfort the two old men, but in addition to this, she needs to confirm one thing!
The old scholar was a little surprised, but nodded as well.
"In the world of Assatom, the two of you have calculated the standard units of current and voltage in this world, and have also measured the resistance of many materials, then, what I want to ask is-"
At this point, the maid paused, took a deep breath, and then asked earnestly, "What are you going to call the standard units ......of current and voltage and resistance? In the world of Assatom, you are the first to be the first in this matter, so are you ready to take your own name?"
The old scholar and the old mage first looked at each other, then turned to look at the apprentices beside them.
Their eyes lit up with hope written in them, and they held their breath as they waited for what could be a historic moment.
As the maid chief had told them, 'amps', 'volts', and 'ohms', all three standard units of name derived from the name of a great 'scientist'.
Then, in this world, their teachers are the 'first people who deserve to be', they are the pioneers!
If their teacher chooses to take his own name, then they may also follow the legend, because no one but them knows about it......
No one knows what the original standard units of current, voltage, and resistance were......
No one......
It was as if a devil was whispering in their ears, and they were so nervous that they were about to cry out.
Although it may be a little rebellious, the same voice echoes in their hearts: 'Promise!'
'Promise, Teacher!'
'Say yes!'
They stared at their teacher and subconsciously held their breath.
Previously, many laboratories had already made achievements, and the tasks assigned by the maid had already been completed in other laboratories, and only a few laboratories were the same as them, or even worse, and they didn't even find a clue.
Therefore, the apprentices were depressed and dull for a long time, and these old scholars and old mages saw it.
After all, they are just a group of young people, and it is obviously not so easy to get them to settle down and study well.
They are hungry for a result, whether it is the apprentices, or the old mages and scholars themselves.
If the old scholar's research on generators and electricity is due to interest and dream, then the old master is to be able to make a name for himself.
He didn't want anything, he just wanted his name to be recorded in history, and people would remember him......
Now a great opportunity was in front of him, what was he going to do? What was he going to do?
The old mage suddenly took a deep breath, made a secret decision in his heart, and then turned his head to look at his colleague, and at this time, the old scholar also happened to look over.
The two of them looked at each other, then looked at each other and smiled.
"Let's go with the old name...... "The old mage smiled and said lightly.
He could finally let go of one of his wishes......
Hearing this, the apprentices were stunned.
They were all in disbelief, and some wondered if they had heard something wrong.
This...... Is that a slip up? What a great opportunity......
The old scholar was stern and said in a deep voice: "The method is not summed up by us, we just did the work of re-calculation, if this is named by us, wouldn't it be a name theft and deception to the world?"
"Lady maid, don't worry, this matter will not become a bump in our way, we will conduct the next step of research as soon as possible, and then let the light move into the homes of all civilians, this is your expectation, and it is also our expectation!"
The old mage took over and smiled indifferently: "Even if I want the world to remember my name, I will not use such a despicable method, otherwise, I will not be able to fall so far......"
The old mage made a small joke, but it made the apprentices bow their heads in shame.
The old scholar glanced at them, sighed secretly, and whispered, "Come on......"
This is not just for the apprentices, but for themselves.
The maid nodded silently, she was not so surprised by this result.
"So, when will it be ready for production?"
This is the problem that the maid is concerned about, and the energy source that is cheaper than magic has appeared, so it is natural to put it into production as soon as possible.
Unlike Magic Furnaces and Elemental Pools, Generators can be mass-produced!
The old scholar hesitated, "Probably...... Let's go in the second half of the year
