 1 Exp    |    which presses with a power equal to a weight of 21575 skålpund,
 2 Exp    |        are raised to a height equal to the depth to which the
 3   I,  1|      air-machine possesses is equal to a weight of 21575 skålpund
 4   I,  1|     half-globes with a weight equal to 53 skeppund 15 lispund
 5   I,  2| cylinder, and is in every way equal to the weight of a column
 6   I,  2|     mercury, which has a base equal to the area of the piston
 7   I,  2|     29 inches, which again is equal to a water-column with the
 8   I,  3|   same door also three men of equal strength in the same position:-
 9   I,  3|    would be opened by a force equal to the strength of two men;
10   I,  3|   would fly open with a force equal to the strength of all the
11   I,  3|      expanding force which is equal to the weight of the whole
12   I,  3| expanding force of the air is equal to the weight of the air):
13   I,  3|      the vessel with a weight equal to the weight of the air
14   I,  3|      be able to lift a weight equal to this power.~ ~
15   I,  6|      scale dice of cork of an equal size, one upon the other,
16   I, 11|      the machine with a force equal to a weight of 53 skeppund,
17  II, 21|  square inches, and the power equal to 12937 1/2 skålpund or
18  II, 21|  square inches, and the power equal to 21575 skålpund, or 53
19 III, 28|     none of these machines is equal to the one at Dannemora. (
20 III, 35|    amount of work will anyhow equal 1800 working-days, because
21 III, 35|       been already proved) is equal to 53 skeppund 18 lipsunds
22 III, 46| inches, the power of which is equal to 96 skeepund, 3 lispund,
