Whereas fetal alcohol sjnidrome is one of the three major known causes of birth defects with accompanying mental retardation in the United States; Whereas fetal alcohol sjoidrome can result in such serious health problems as: deficiencies in prenatal and postnatal growth that are associated with mental retardation; developmental disabilities that may cause an infant to experience delays in learning to walk and speak; and heart defects, including defects in the wall between the pumping chambers of the heart; Whereas in cases in which fetal alcohol syndrome is avoided, infants may still experience alcohol-related birth effects, known as fetal alcohol effects, which are a series of health problems that include increased irritability during the newborn period and hyperactivity; Whereas the discovery of fetal alcohol syndrome as a major health problem is a recent occurrence, and many questions regarding the illness remain unanswered; Whereas there has never been an infant born with fetal alcohol syndrome whose mother did not consume alcohol during pregnancy; Whereas fetal alcohol syndrome can be prevented if pregnant women and women considering pregnancy abstain from alcohol consumption; and Whereas the Surgeon General of the Public Health Service has issued an advisory stating that pregnant women and women considering pregnancy should not consume alcohol: Now, therefore, be it

Rh momentum, which may be called the momentum of the fly-wheel reduced to the driving-point. The unbalanced force acting on the driving-point increases this momentum, and is measured by the rate of its increase.

In the case of electric currents, the resistance to sudden increase or diminution of strength produces effects exactly like those of momentum, but the amount of this momentum depends on the shape of the conductor and the relative position of its different parts.

Mutual Action of two Currents

(23) If there are two electric currents in the field, the magnetic force at any point is that compounded of the forces due to each current separately, and since the two currents are in connexion with every point of the field, they will be in connexion with each other, so that any increases or diminution of the one will produce a force acting with or contrary to the other.

Dynamical Illustration of Reduced Momentum

(24) As a dynamical illustration, let us suppose a body $$C$$ so connected with two independent driving-points $$A$$ and $$B$$ that its velocity is $$p$$ times that of $$A$$ together with $$q$$ times that of $$B$$. Let $$u$$ be the velocity of $$A$$, $$v$$ that of $$B$$, and $$w$$ that of $$C$$, and let $$dx$$, $$dy$$, $$dz$$ be their simultaneous displacements, then by the general equation of dynamics ,

$C\frac\delta z = X\delta x + Y\delta y,$

where $$X$$ and $$Y$$ are the forces acting at $$A$$ and $$B$$.

But

$\frac = p\frac + q\frac,$

and

$\delta z = p\delta x + q\delta y.\,$

Substituting, and remembering that $$dx$$ and $$dy$$ are independent,

{{MathForm2|(1)|$$\left. \begin{array}{l} X = \frac{d}{{dt}}\left( {Cp^2 u + Cpqv} \right) \\ Y = \frac{d}{{dt}}\left( {Cpqu + Cq^2 v} \right) \\ \end{array} \right\}$$}}

We may call $$Cp^2 u + Cpqv$$ the momentum of $$C$$ referred to $$A$$, and $$Cpqu + Cq^2 v$$ its momentum referred to $$B$$; then we may say that the effect of the force $$X$$ is to increase the momentum of $$C$$ referred to $$A$$, and that of $$Y$$ to increase its momentum referred to $$B$$.

If there are many bodies connected with $$A$$ and $$B$$ in a similar way but with different values of $$p$$ and $$q$$, we may treat the question in the same way by assuming

$L = \sum {\left( {Cp^2 } \right)} $, $M = \sum {\left( {Cpq} \right)} $, $N = \sum {\left( {Cq^2 } \right)} $,

 468 where the summation is extended to all the bodies with their proper values of $$C$$,$$p$$,$$a$$, and $$q$$. Then the momentum of the system referred to $$A$$ is

$Lu + Mv,$

And referred to $$B$$,

$Mu + Nv,$

And we shall have

{{MathForm2|(2)|$$\left. \begin{array}{l} X = \frac{d}(Lu + Mv) \\ Y = \frac{d}(Mu + Nv) \\ \end{array} \right\}$$}}

Where $$X$$ and $$Y$$ are the external forces acting on $$A$$ and $$B$$.

(25) To make the illustration more complete we have only to suppose that the motion of $$A$$ is resisted by a force proportional to its velocity, which we may call $$Ru$$, and that of $$B$$ by a similar force, which we may call $$Sv$$, $$R$$ and $$S$$ being coefficients of resistance. Then if $$\xi$$ and $$\eta$$ are the forces on $$A$$ and $$B$$

{{MathForm2|(3)|$$\left. \begin{array}{l} \xi = X + Ru = Ru + \frac{d}(Lu + Mv) \\ \eta = Y + Sv = Sv + \frac{d}(Mu + Nv) \\ \end{array} \right\},$$}}

If the velocity of $$A$$ be increased at the rate $$\tfrac{{dt}}$$, then in order to prevent $$B$$ from moving a force, $$\eta = \tfrac{d}{{dt}}(Mu)$$ must be applied to it.

This effect on $$B$$, due to an increase of the velocity of $$A$$, corresponds to the electromotive force on one circuit arising from an increase in the strength of a neighbouring circuit.

This dynamical illustration is to be considered merely as assisting the reader to understand what is meant in mechanics by Reduced Momentum. The facts of the induction of currents as depending on the variations of the quantity called Electromagnetic Momentum, or Electrotonic State, rest on the experiments of,  , &c.

Coefficients of Induction for Two Circuits

(26) In the electromagnetic field the values of $$L$$, $$M$$, $$N$$ depend on the distribution of the magnetic effects due to the two circuits, and this distribution depends only on the form and relative position of the circuits. Hence $$L$$, $$M$$, $$N$$ are quantities depending on the form and relative position of the circuits, and are subject to variation with the motion of the conductors. It will be presently seen that $$L$$, $$M$$, $$N$$ are geometrical quantities of the nature of lines, that is, of one dimension in space; $$L$$ depends on the form of the first conductor, which we shall call $$A$$, $$N$$ on that of the second, which we call $$B$$, and $$M$$ on the relative position of $$A$$ and $$B$$.

(27) Let $$\xi$$ be the electromotive force acting on $$A$$, $$x$$ the strength of the current, and

 pupils. It was not until after he graduated that Pater emerged from his shell at Queen's and came to know some of the more interesting men in other colleges. In the beginning of 1863 he and Professor Bywater were elected members of the Old Mortality, an essay society which flourished at Oxford between 1858 and 1865. The principal resident members at that time were Thomas Hill Green [q. v.], Alfred Robinson, Henry Nettleship [q. v.], Professor Bryce, the present master of Balliol (Edward Caird), and Mr. Boyle of Trinity, with whom Pater had been reading. Pater's first essay was philosophical; one who was present describes it as a 'hymn of praise to the absolute.' Through the Old Mortality, Pater became acquainted with other non-resident or future fellows, such as John Nichol, Mr. Swinburne, and Sir Courtenay Ilbert. In 1864 he was elected a fellow of Brasenose College, and went into residence there, proceeding M.A. in 1865. It was as a non-clerical fellow that he took his place in the society.

On relinquishing his early project of entering the church of England, Pater had thought of becoming a unitarian minister. But this notion also he had abandoned by 1864. His interests were at the time, however, mainly philosophical. His early visits to Germany led him to value all things German. The influence of Jowett and T. H. Green served to strengthen this habit. Mr. Capes warned him against its excess, but his endeavour to attract his pupil to the lucidity and gaiety of French literature met at first with little success. In the year following his election to his fellowship, he paid, in company with Mr. C. L. Shadwell, fellow of Oriel College, his first visit to Italy, and at Ravenna, Pisa, and Florence formed those impressions of the art of the Renaissance which powerfully coloured his future work as an artist. With the accession of humanistic ideas, he gradually lost all belief in the Christian religion. In 1866 Pater's first essay in composition, a fragment on Coleridge, was published in the ‘Westminster Review.’ His studies in philosophy naturally brought him to Goethe, and it was only natural that one so delicately sensitive to the external symbol as Pater was, should be prepared by the companionship of Goethe for the influence of a man who was Goethe's master in this one direction. The publication of Otto Jahn's ‘Life of Winckelmann’ in 1866 made a profound impression on Pater. His famous essay on Winckelmann was the result of this new enthusiasm. It was published in the ‘Westminster Review’ for January 1867. From this time forth he began to contribute essays to the larger periodicals, and particularly to the ‘Fortnightly Review.’ In 1868, inventing a name which has since sunk into disrepute, he composed an essay on ‘Æsthetic Poetry,’ in which the early work of Mr. William Morris received prompt and judicious analysis. Then followed the series which possess a potent and peculiar charm, the characteristic ‘Notes on Lionardo da Vinci,’ in November 1869; the ‘Fragment on Sandro Botticelli,’ in August 1870; the ‘Pico della Mirandula’ in October, and the ‘Michelangelo’ in November 1871. In 1873 most of these and others were published together in the memorable volume originally entitled ‘Studies in the History of the Renaissance.’

In 1869 he had become associated with the group of painters and poets known as the pre-Raphaelites, and particularly with Mr. Swinburne, but he remained domiciled in Oxford. He took a house at No. 2 Bradmore Road, and his sisters came to live with him. Once settled here, Pater became a familiar figure in academic society; but, although he had a large circle of pleasant acquaintances, his intimate friends were always few. His career was exceedingly quiet and even monotonous. He was occupied through term-time in tutorial work, and his long vacations were almost always spent abroad, in Germany or France, in the company of his sisters. He would walk as much as possible, and sometimes more violently than suited his health. He loved the north of France extremely, and knew it well; nor was it any sensible drawback to his pleasure that he spoke no language but his own, and even in French could scarcely make his wants understood. Once, in 1882, he spent the winter in Rome.

Always engaged in literary labour, his procedure was nevertheless so slow and so complicated that twelve years elapsed between the publication of his first book and his second. In February 1885 his romance of ‘Marius the Epicurean’ was published in two volumes. This is, without doubt, Pater's most valuable legacy to literature. It is written to illustrate the highest ideal of the æsthetic life, and to prove that beauty may be made the object of the soul in a career as pure, as concentrated, and as austere as any that asceticism inspires. ‘Marius’ is an apology for the highest epicureanism, and at the same time it is a texture which the author has embroidered with exquisite flowers of imagination, learning, and passion. Modern humanism has produced no more admirable product than this noble dream of a pursuit through life of the spirit of heavenly beauty.

 Rh $$R$$ the resistance, then $$Rx$$ will be the resisting force. In steady currents the electromotive force just balances the resisting force, but in variable currents the resultant force $$\xi = Rx$$ is expanded in increasing the “electromagnetic momentum”, using the word momentum merely to express that which is generated by a force acting during a time, that is, a velocity existing in a body.

In the case of electric currents, the force in action is not ordinary mechanical force, at least we are not as yet able to measure it as common force, but we call it electromotive force, and the body moved is not merely the electricity in the conductor, but something outside the conductor, and capable of being affected by other conductors in the neighbourhood carrying currents. In this it resembles rather the reduced momentum of a driving-point of a machine as influenced by its mechanical connections, than that of a simple moving body like a cannon ball, or water in a tube.

Electromagnetic Relations of two Conducting Circuits

(28) In the case of two conducting circuits, $$A$$ and $$B$$, we shall assume that the electromagnetic momentum belonging to $$A$$ is

$Lx + My,$

and that belonging to $$B$$,

$Mx + Ny,$

where $$L$$, $$M$$, $$N$$ correspond to the same quantities in the dynamical illustration, except that they are supposed to be capable of variation when the conductors $$A$$ or $$B$$ are moved.

Then the equation of the current $$x$$ in $$A$$ will be

and that of $$y$$ in $$B$$

where $$\xi$$ and $$\eta$$ are the electromotive forces, $$x$$ and $$y$$ the currents, and $$R$$ and $$S$$ the resistances in $$A$$ and $$B$$ respectively.

Induction of one Current by another.

(29) Case 1st. Let there be no electromotive force on $$B$$, except that which arises from the action of A, and let the current of $$A$$ increase from 0 to the value $$x$$, then

$Sy + \frac{d}\left( {Mx + Ny} \right) = 0,$

whence

that is, a quantity of electricity $$Y$$, being the total induced current, will flow through $$B$$ when $$x$$ rises from 0 to $$x$$. This is induction by variation of the current in the primary

 470 conductor. When $$M$$ is positive, the induced current due to increase of the primary current is negative.

Induction of Motion by a Conductor.

(30) Case 2nd. Let $$x$$ remain constant, and let $$M$$ change from $$M$$ to $$M'$$, then

so that if $$M$$ is increased, which it will be by the primary and secondary circuits approaching each other, there will be a negative induced current, the total quantity of electricity passed through $$B$$ being $$Y$$.

This is induction by the relative motion of the primary and secondary conductors.

Equation of Work and Energy.

(31) To form the equation between work done and energy produced, multiply ($$) by $$x$$ and ($$) by $$y$$, and add

Here $$\xi x$$ is the work done in unit of time by the electromotive force $$\xi$$ acting on the current $$x$$ and maintaining it, and $$\eta y$$ is the work done by the electromtoive force $$\eta$$. Hence the left-hand side of the equation represents the work done by the electromotive forces in unit of time.

Heat produced by the Current.

(32) On the other side of the equation we have, first,

which represents the work done in overcoming the resistance of the circuits in unit of time. This is converted into heat. The remaining terms represent work not converted into heat. They may be written

${\textstyle{1 \over 2}}\frac{d}\left( {Lx^2 + 2Mxy + Ny^2 } \right) + {\textstyle{1 \over 2}}\fracx^2 + \fracxy + {\textstyle{1 \over 2}}\fracy^2 .$|undefined

Intrinsic Energy of the Currents.

(33) If $$L$$,$$M$$,$$N$$ are constant, the whole work of the electromotive forces which is not spent against resistance will be devoted to the development of the currents. The whole intrinsic energy of the currents is therefore

This energy exists in a form imperceptible to our senses, probably as actual motion, the seat of this motion being not merely the conducting circuits, but the space surrounding them.
