X.2512. CALCULATION OF CAPACITY OF CONDENSER.

Let capacity reactance be w ohms
= volts / amps. = 1 / pk (dimensions LT^-1)
So that K = 1 / pw farads.
= 10^6 / pw mf.

p = 2π f = 262 sec^-1 for 41.7~ or 318.5 for 50.7~
∴ K = 3820 / w mf. " " " or 3140 / w " "

If volts = 205
amps = C
K = 3820 C / 205 or 3140C / 205
= 18.6 C } for 41.7~ or 15.3 C for 50.7~
