dc.descriptionTwo problems from the Victorian Age, the subdivision of light and the determination of the leakage point in an undersea telegraphic cable are discussed and suggested as a concrete illustrations of the relationships between textbook physics and the real world. Ohm's law and simple algebra are the only tools we need to discuss them in the classroom.
