Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legacy of a country is in its varied cultural heritage, historical literature, developments in the field of economy and science. The top nations in the world are competing in the field of science, economy and literature. This vast legacy has to be conserved and documented so that it can be bestowed to the future generation. The knowledge of this legacy is slowly getting perished in the present generation due to lack of documentation.Keeping this in mind, the concern with retrospective acquiring of rare books has been accented recently by the burgeoning reprint industry. Maxwell Press is gratified to retrieve the rare collections with a view to bring back those books that were landmarks in their time.In this effort, a series of rare books would be republished under the banner, "Maxwell Press". The books in the reprint series have been carefully selected for their contemporary usefulness as well as their historical importance within the intellectual. We reconstruct the book with slight enhancements made for better presentation, without affecting the contents of the original edition.Most of the works selected for republishing covers a huge range of subjects, from history to anthropology. We believe this reprint edition will be a service to the numerous researchers and practitioners active in this fascinating field. We allow readers to experience the wonder of peering into a scholarly work of the highest order and seminal significance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Electricity N the present book I have tried to meet the needs of those readers who require an advanced text covering both the theoretical and practical sides of: the subject, as far as this can conveniently be done in a single volume. Though complete in itself, the book is not intended for beginners, who may be supposed to have read one of the excellent elementary treatises available, such as Whetham's Theory of Experimental Electricity. Space saved from the detailed treatment of elementary topics has been used to give an account of some of the more recent developments of electricity. It thus comes about that the book falls naturally into two sections; the first eight chapters having been kept fairly simple and containing all the principles necessary for a right appreciation of the subject, while the remaining chapters form introductory accounts of special subjects, which may be consulted by students before starting on treatises devoted to them alone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Albert Einstein characterized the work of James Clerk Maxwell as the "most profound and the most fruitful that physics has experienced since the time of Newton." Max Planck went even further, declaring that "he achieved greatness unequalled," and Richard Feynman asserted that "From a long view of the history of mankind — seen from, say, ten thousand years from now — there can be little doubt that the most significant event of the nineteenth century will be judged as Maxwell's discovery of the laws of electrodynamics." Maxwell made numerous other contributions to the advancement of science, but the greatest work of his life was devoted to electricity. An Elementary Treatise on Electricity appeared at a time when very few books on electrical measurements were available to students, and its compact treatment not only elucidates the theory of electricity but also serves to develop electrical ideas in readers' minds. The author describes experiments that demonstrate the principal facts relating an electric charge as a quantity capable of being measured, deductions from these facts, and the exhibition of electrical phenomena. This volume, published posthumously from Maxwell's lecture notes at the Cavendish Laboratory — which he founded at the University of Cambridge — is supplemented by a selection of articles from his landmark book, Electricity and Magnetism. A classic of science, this volume is an eminently suitable text for upper-level undergraduates and graduate students.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary Treatise on Electric Batteries: From the French of Alfred Niaudet But if, instead of ordinary zinc, which contains im purities, zinc rendered perfectly pure by distillation be employed, the action takes place very slowly, the hub bles of hydrogen remain attached to the plate of zinc and protect it from further action of the acid. If a thin plate of platinum, or a platinum wire, be now placed in the same, as soon as the two metals touch at one point the action becomes extremely energetic; the zinc dissolves and hydrogen is given off, but from the platinum and no longer from the zinc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1888 edition. Excerpt: ... one unit of electricity is passed through fused chloride of silver, one electrochemical equivalent of silver appears at the cathode and one electrochemical equivalent of chlorine at the anode, and one electrochemical equivalent of chloride of silver disappears. 119. The electrochemical equivalents of the same substance, as deduced from experiments on different electrolytes which contain it, are consistent with each other. Thus the electrochemical equivalent of chlorine is the same, whether we deduce it from experiments on chloride of silver, or from experiments on hydrochloric acid, and that of silver is the same, whether we deduce it from experiments on chloride of silver, or from experiments on nitrate of silver. These laws of electrolysis were established by Faraday. If they are strictly true the conduction of electricity through an electrolyte is always electrolytic conduction, that is to say, the electric current is always associated with a flow of the components of the electrolyte in opposite directions. Such a flow of the components necessarily involves their appearance in a separate form at the anode and the cathode. To effect this separation a certain electromotive force is required depending on the energy of combination of the electrolyte. Thus the electromotive force of one of Daniell's cells is not sufficient to decompose dilute sulphuric acid. If, therefore, an electrolytic cell, consisting of a vessel of acidulated water, in which two platinum plates are placed as electrodes, is inserted in the circuit of a single Daniell's cell, along with a galvanometer to measure the current, it will be found that though there is a transient current at the instant the circuit is closed, this current rapidly diminishes in intensity, so as...

This book was released on 2017-10-06 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FRAGMENT OF AUTHOR'S PREFACE. THE aim of the following treatise is different from that of my larger treatise on electricity and magnetism. In the larger treatise the reader is supposed to be familiar with the higher mathematical methods which are not used in this book, and his studies are so directed as to give him the power of dealing mathematically with the various phenomena of the science. In this smaller book I have endeavoured to present, in as compact a form as I can, those phenomena which appear to throw light on the theory of electricity, and to use them, each in its place, for the development of electrical ideas in the mind of the reader. In the larger treatise I sometimes made use of methods which I do not think the best in themselves, but without which the student cannot follow the investigations of the founders of the Mathematical Theory of Electricity. I have since become more convinced of the superiority of methods akin to those of Faraday, and have therefore adopted them from the first. In the first two chapters experiments are described which demonstrate the principal facts relating to electric charge considered as a quantity capable of being measured. The third chapter, 'on electric work and energy, ' consists of deductions from these facts. To those who have some acquaintance with the elementary parts of mathematics, this chapter may be useful as tending to make their knowledge more precise. Those who are not so prepared may omit this chapter in their first reading of the book. The fourth chapter describes the electric field, or the region in which electric phenomena are exhibited.

Download or read book An Elementary Treatise on Alternating Currents Classic Reprint written by William Gould Rhodes and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Elementary Treatise on Alternating Currents Having been for some years engaged in lecturing to advanced students on the subject of alternating currents the author has endeavoured to present, in as simple a manner as possible, a subject which, though intensely interesting in its purely physical aspect, is often expounded by mathematicians who, while revelling in the mathematical gymnastics afforded by its problems, so bewilder their less mathematical readers by the adoption of unnecessarily ponderous methods that the majority give up in disgust a subject which would otherwise exercise great fascination for them. That such should ever happen is lamentable in the extreme, since it retards the progress of the practical application of alternating currents. The author has employed the method of vector algebra wherever possible to solve the various problems, as he has found that it is quite easy for a student knowing only the elements of algebra and trigonometry to obtain a good working knowledge of the method in a very short time, and become enabled to attack problems which are otherwise beyond his comprehension. The application of vector algebra to alternating-current problems should appeal to everybody. It is a tool peculiarly adapted to the subject, and combines simplicity with all the advantages of a powerful method. No one will dispute the use of a treatise on the subject in which the chief aim of the writer is to eliminate mathematical difficulties and give prominence to the physics of the subject. Since the author has engaged in practice as a consulting engineer he has found that the want of a simple though comprehensive treatise is often a deterrent to practical engineers acquiring a requisite knowledge of the subject.
