‎First appearance in English of this importent paper in which Lenz established the law of electrical resistivity in wires, stating that ""their conductibilities are in an inverse ratio to their lengths."" The paper is a translation of ""Ueber das Gesetz der Leitungsfähigket für Electricität bei Dräthen von verschiedenen Längen und Durchmessern."", published in St. Petersbourg in 1835.‎
