512 least squares to determine what further correction depending on the square of the velocity should be applied to make the outstanding errors a minimum.

The result of this examination showed that the calculated value of L should be multiplied by 1.0618 to obtain the value of L, which would give the most consistent results."

The value of L calculated from the dimensions of the coil is probably much more accurate than either of the other determinations.
