Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Laboratory Course in Experimental Physics At the present day, when students are required to gain knowledge of natural phenomena by performing experiments for themselves in laboratories, every teacher finds that as his classes increase in number, some difficulty is experienced in providing, during a limited time, ample instruction in the matter of details and methods. During the past few years we ourselves have had such difficulties with large classes; and that is our reason for the appearance of the present work, which is the natural outcome of our experience. We know that it will be of service to our own students, and hope that it will be appreciated by those engaged in teaching Experimental Physics elsewhere. The book contains a series of elementary experiments specially adapted for students who have had but little acquaintance with higher mathematical methods: these are arranged as far as possible in order of difficulty. There is also an advanced course of experimental work in Acoustics, Heat, and Electricity and Magnetism, which is intended for those who have taken the elementary course.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Experimental Science: An Elementary Course of Physics and Chemistry Within the past few years distinct advances have been made in the methods of teaching science. It is becoming more and more widely recognised that the only scientific knowledge worth having is that gained by individual observation and experience; and public examining bodies are one by one bringing themselves in line with this sound educational principle by causing their examinations to be more a test of familiarity with experimental methods and results than of information acquired by reading. The new regulations for the Matriculation Examination of the London University, making an experimental knowledge of the fundamental principles of physical and chemical science compulsory for every candidate, represent an advance in this direction. Moreover, provision for such an introductory course in science is made in the Junior Local Examinations of the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge; and pupil teachers in elementary schools are now encouraged by the Education Department to take up a course of elementary science having nearly the same scope as that just introduced into the Matriculation Examination of the University of London. The lessons in this volume follow the Matriculation Syllabus of "General Elementary Science." It is distinctly stated in a note prefixed to the syllabus that "In particular, the subjects of the present syllabus will be treated wherever possible from an experimental point of view. Candidates will be expected to have performed or witnessed simple experiments in illustration of the subjects mentioned in this syllabus." With these requirements in mind, we have made experimental work a distinctive feature of the book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ALTHOUGH text-books of practical physics are now fairly numerous, the demonstrators in physics of the University of Toronto appear to have found it impossible to adapt any of the existing ones to the requirements of their students. The same difficulty has been experienced in most English laboratories, partly on account of the diversity which exists between the apparatus of the various institutions, and partly because of the different aims of students working in them. Consequently nearly every laboratory possesses instruction-sheets, either in print or manuscript, which have in some instances been edited and issued in book form; the present volume is a case in point. The experiments described in the book are arranged in two courses, elementary and advanced, in the former of which weighing and measuring, light and heat, are included, while the advanced course consists of sound, advanced heat, electricity, and magnetism. Some easy experiments in electricity and magnetism might have been included in the elementary course, otherwise the selection is a fairly good and useful one. The section on sound contains figures and descriptions of Helmholtz's and König's apparatus for various experiments, but many students' laboratories in this country are, unfortunately, not equipped with large electrically-driven tuning-forks and chronographs. Experimental details are sometimes omitted; for example, in describing the use of the spectrometer as a goniometer, the student is not told how to focus the telescope and adjust the slit so as to obtain a parallel beam of light from the collimator. In the same experiment it is erroneously stated that the edge of the crystal must coincide with the axis of the instrument, whereas the two need only be parallel to each other if the collimator is properly adjusted. Again, in calorimetric measurements, errors arising from radiation between the calorimeter and its surroundings are not very adequately discussed; the calorimeter is supposed in all experiments to alter its temperature at a uniform rate, and matters are so arranged that the mean between its initial and final temperatures is that of the atmosphere. In specific heat determinations a preliminary experiment is necessary in order to satisfy the latter condition, and the assumption of uniform rise of temperature is only approximately true, even when the body under experiment is a good conductor of heat. The book is printed in a bold, clear type, and its illustrations are good; it will be found a useful addition to the laboratory bookshelf.-Philosophical Magazine

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Experimental Science: An Elementary Course of Physics and Chemistry Many of the experiments follow the course of instruction in elementary science contained in the physics and chemistry syllabus prepared by a Committee of the Incorporated Association of Head Masters. The results are indicated in each case, hence the experiments may be regarded in a way as solved examples of the general laws and phenomena Of physical science, but the examples can only be properly understood by actually following the various stages which lead to their solution. In a few sec tions of the book it has been necessary to illustrate by numerical examples the principles involved and to exercise the studentin solving simple problems of this kind numerous questions have been added to the chapters. For a large number of these, and more especially for those appended to Chapters III - VII, we are indebted to Mr. Walter J. Wood, who has collected many from actual examination papers, and has supplied the answers. Throughout the preparation of the following pages we have found the assistance and advice Of Professor R. A. Gregory invaluable. Teachers who know Professor Gregory's Exercise Book of Elementary Practical Physics will recognise in the earlier chapters of the present volume several experiments described in that book. The Opportunity of expressing thanks for permission to introduce these is gladly taken; and we also desire to express our Obligations to the Publishers for permitting free use of suitable illustrations from several of their elementary books in the various branches of science with which this volume is concerned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Descriptive List of Elementary Exercises in Physics: Corresponding to the Requirement in Elementary Experimental Physics for Admission to Harvard College and the Lawrence Scientific School A course of study dealing with the leading elementary facts and principles of physics, with quantitative laboratory work by the pupil. The instruction given in this course should include qualitative lecture-room experiments, and should direct especial attention to the illustrations and applications of physical laws to be found in every day life. The candidate will be required to pass a written examina tion, the main object of which will be to determine how much he has profited by such instruction. This examination may include numerical problems. It will contain more questions than any one candidate is expected to answer, in order to make allowance for a considerable diversity of instruction in different schools. The pupil's laboratory work should give practice in the observa tion and explanation of physical phenomena, some familiarity with methods of measurement and some training of the hand and the eye in the direction of precision and skill. It should also be regarded as a means of fixing in the mind of the pupil a considerable variety of facts and principles. The candidate will be required to pass a laboratory examination, the main object of which will be to deter mine how much he has profited by such a laboratory course.

This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Experimental Physics a Text-Book of Mechanics, Heat, Sound and Light This book is intended as a text-book for use in connection with a course of experimental lectures on mechanics, properties of matter, heat, sound and light. No previous knowledge of physics is assumed, but nevertheless the book is primarily intended for a first year college course, and the majority of the students attending such a course have studied elementary physics at school. The writing of such a book does not offer much scope for originality; the aim of the writer should be to present fundamental principles clearly and accurately. The chief difficulty is to decide what to include and what to leave out. I have endeavoured to leave out everything not of fundamental importance. It is important for the student to learn some facts and to get to understand some methods and fundamental principles; if he learns nothing about certain phenomena no harm is done and he can make up the deficiency in his knowledge at a later date if necessary. The kind of text-book which contains a little about everything does more harm than good. Care has been taken not to discuss questions which cannot be treated adequately in an elementary way and to avoid stating formulae without proving them. A few experiments are rather fully described in nearly every chapter; these have been selected from the many which might have been merely mentioned. In Part I, Chapters VI, VII and parts of IX may be omitted at the first reading. In Part II, Chapters X and XI may also be omitted by students whose time is limited.

This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Annotated List of Experiments in Physics Used at the University of Cincinnati in the Courses in Experimental Physics Designed for Sophomore Students of the Academic and Engineering Colleges This is not intended to be a course in Experimental Physics, but, as its title implies, merely an annotated list of some 270 experiments, any one of which might be profitably performed by a sophomore student in college. As a rule no attempt has been made to describe the experiment, but a reference has been given to a full description of it in a standard manual or text book. In the references, for the sake of brevity, the name of the author has been given without the title of the work. Below, therefore, is a list of the books referred to with their publishers: Ames and Bliss, Experiments in Physics, Harper Brothers, 1898. Barker, Physics, second edition, Henry Holt Co.
