Then the average rate of acquisition of energ 970,000,000 foot-pounds per second. The average power during this small interval of time is, therefore, 1,750,000 horsepower. It is thus evistent that for the operation of s single6-inch gun of moderntypothers would. be required a generating station capable of supplying energy at the instantaneous rate of 1,750,000 horse-power, or about 1,500,000 kilowatts value ognal to mosa than one-tirind of the total available power of Niagara Falls.

In order to produce this fores inagnetically the minimam flux density would have to be 200,000 linas per square centimeter. The impossibility of exa- ploying such a density will he appreciated when it is recalled that soft iron is well saturated at 10,000 linen per square centimeter. If use were made of the latter density, and with it suffisiant rapidity of magnetization could be secured for operating a gun, the acceleration would be only 500 feet par second, instead of
