If the weights descendedslowly and uniformly, this workwas all expended in overcomingthe resistance of the water tothe motion of the paddle wheelsthrough it; that is, it was wastedin eddy currents in the water.Joule measured the rise in thetemperature of the water andfound that the mean of his threebest trials gave 427 gram metersas the amount of work required to d-evelop enough heat to raise a gram of water one degree. This value,confirmed by modern experiments, is now generally accepted as correct.He then repeated the experiment, substituting mercury for water, andobtained 12.5 gram meters as the work necessary to produce a calorie ofheat. The difference between these numbers is less than was to havebeen expected from the unavoidable errors in the observations. Hethen devised an arrangement in which the heat was developed by thefriction of iron on iron, and again obtained 425. Text Appearing After Image: Fig. 108.
