Definitions

from The Century Dictionary.

  • Of or pertaining to Heinrich Hertz, (1857–1894) the discoverer of electro-magnetic waves, or (specifically) to such waves.

from the GNU version of the Collaborative International Dictionary of English.

  • adjective Of or pert. to the German physicist Heinrich Hertz.
  • adjective telegraphy by means of the Hertzian waves; wireless telegraphy.
  • adjective electric waves; -- so called because Hertz was the first to investigate them systematically. His apparatus consisted essentially in an oscillator for producing the waves, and a resonator for detecting them. The waves were found to have the same velocity as light, and to undergo reflection, refraction, and polarization.

  • In this video i show how tesla began his industrial research with wireless electricity. first is a transformer/power grid model (with only one wire), then pure wireless model of course his research has gone back further than this, but this is the industrial quantities he wanted to give to the world, using resonance and stationary waves. these waves will set up around the world and have nodal points of high energy areas and low energy areas. remember these waves are not hertzian because the resonant coil cancels out the electrostatic and magnetic aspect, leaving a energy pulse with a one direction vector. the wireless electricity towers (wardenclyffe's) will add to the resonance and be set up on renewable resources like hydroelectric to give energy to the world. multiple wardenclyffes can be set up to resonate with eachother and the earth, yeilding higher energized stationary waves and give equal and industrial sized quantities to all parts of the earth at 97% efficientcy total worldwide!. during his research at colorado springs tesla pulsed the earth and found that the pulse traveled faster than the speed of light, it is unclear if he points out the speed, but it is easy to figure out looking at his notes and distance the pulses traveled. because there was a return pulse, tesla found that the earth was a conductor too and so a pulse could be sent and it would return, so sending multiple pulses at the earths resonant frequency would give rise to huge stationary waves and thus Drag to Playlist
