      raise temperature of a body one degree, taking as the unit

      of mercury is 0.033, that of water being 1.000.

   {Specific inductive capacity} (Physics), the effect of a
      dielectric body in producing static electric induction as

      the name of the genus, constitutes the distinctive name of
      the species; -- originally applied by Linn[ae]us to the
