Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Physics, Vol. 1 In rendering this work into English, the translator has endeavoured to give a faithful version without doing violence to the idioms of our own language, and has in closed in brackets the additions which he has made in two or three instances to the original text. From page 233. To page he has substituted the methods given by Baily and Littrow for the barometric measurement of altitudes for that of the author, which was both more involved than theirs, and also too long for the space that could be afforded for it in the translation. A very few Notes have been added, either explanatory of the text, or for the sake of giving the Opinions of eminent philosophers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Elements of Physics, Vol. 1 of 3: A College d104-Book The beginner in Physics, if he is to be well taught, must study a text-book which contains concise statements of physical laws and a systematic development of. Principles. He must attend lectures or demonstrations in which the phenomena are shown, and finally he must enter the laboratory and make physical measurements. The present book deals only with the first part of this triple course of instruction. It differs in certain respects from many books which have been written for beginners. Descriptions of the numerous phenomena with which it is necessary for the student to become acquainted have been largely omitted; the assumption being that the study of the text will always be accompanied by, and indeed be supplementary to, a course of carefully arranged and fully illustrated lectures. A knowledge of the elements of the calculus, the natural language of physics, has been taken for granted, but the degree of mathematical experience of the undergraduate reader, necessarily limited, has been kept in view and the various proofs and the demonstra tions have been given the simplest possible form. The concepts of directed and of distributed quantity, which are no less important to the student of physics than are the methods of the calculus, are briefly treated in Chapter II. Of Volume I.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Physics, Vol. 1 of 2: Or Natural Philosophy, General and Medical, Explained Independently of Technical Mathematics, and Containing New Disquisitions and Practical Suggestions Astronomy, which is the instance chosen above, is only one of innumerable subjects, which, when imperfectly understood, appear obscure and difficult, but when more fully investigated, become simplicity itself. As an exam ple from the studies of medical men may be mentioned the question of the movement of the blood in the veins, which has lately been discussed in medical societies and reviews with considerable earnestness. In this question, the appeal is necessarily made to the laws of Natural Philosophy, which govern the phenomenon; but because the study of these has been little cultivated by the facul ty, more time has been absorbed in futile disputation and experiment than would have sufficed for acquiring a competent knowledge of the whole body of Physics now the single section of Physics, which bears on the point if understood in a moderate degree, would have caused all the difficulties at once to vanish. The circu lation of the blood, again, is but one of numerous and scarcely less important subjects in the medical art to which Natural Philosophy is the easy and only key.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Physics, Vol. 1: Ponderable Bodies Tnn study of the physical sciences has become of 1 almost universal; partly because it has been found v suited to cultivate habits of observation and reasoni which cannot fail to be of use in the business of life, a partly because the practical application of scientific p) ciples to the details of almost every department of mm facturing and agricultural industry, has rendered sc acquaintance with natural philosophy and chemistry im pensable. Instruction in these branches of knowle now forms part of the education given to most boys school: to meet their requirements so many treatises h already been published, that to add to the number n seem a mark of presumption.

Download or read book Elements of Physics Classic Reprint written by C. Hanford Henderson and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-09 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Physics The authors have prepared this book in the belief that physics should be so taught as to be a desirable and even essential subject for every pupil in the secondary schools. In its preparation they have therefore devoted much study to the conditions which obtain in the schools at the present time, and have endeavored to meet them. The book is designed to provide a year's work for the class room, and only such matter has been introduced as is deemed appropriate for pupils of the high-school age and attainments. Laboratory exercises, questions, and problems given in a text-book are manifestly inadequate and unsatisfactory. The authors have therefore thought it preferable not to follow that course, but to amplify and make more thorough this part of the study in a separate volume, which is published under the title Physical Experiments, and is to be used concurrently with the textbook. The relations of physics on all sides to human life and human interests have been emphasized. A text-book is much more readable if the material for the laboratory work is excluded from it.

Download or read book The Elements of Physics Classic Reprint written by S. E. Coleman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-26 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Elements of Physics This book is intended as a text for a first course in physics. It presupposes a knowledge of elementary algebra and plane geometry, but requires no further mathematical training. While complete in itself as a text-book, it assumes the support of a systematic course of laboratory exercises essentially equivalent to the author's Physical Laboratory Manual.' The exercises in this manual are referred to by number in the body of the text, in connection with the topics which they serve to illustrate. The text and the manual together present a single, coherent course in elementary physics. The subject-matter has been selected with reference primarily to its value as a part of a general education, and includes an unusual amount of information based upon the facts of our daily experience, introduced as illustrations and applications of phys ical principles. This relieves the teacher from the necessity of providing for and supervising a considerable amount of reference reading, in order to rescue the subject from the uninteresting barrenness to which it has been reduced in many of the more recent text-books.

Download or read book Physics the Elements Classic Reprint written by Norman Robert Campbell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Physics the Elements The other fault is a complete lack of reference to the work of others. My large index of references was lost in the disorder of war-time removals, and I had no chance, and no time, to replace it. But perhaps the omission is not an unmixed evil. As is pointed out in the Introduction, there is very little original in the substance of the book; there is hardly a paragraph which is not a paraphrase of something that can be found in well-known treatises or papers. If complete references were given, the notes would be almost as bulky as the text, and the book would be quite unreadable; if they were in complete, they would probably be misleading and might cause offence. Moreover if anything valuable has been added to a mere compilation of what everyone knew before, it arises from a unity conferred by the passage of all this matter through a single mind; for though the conclusions reached are seldom new, they have not been easy to reach, but represent many hours of strenuous thought and result from many changes of opinion. Such unity, it seems to me, might be destroyed if the reader were constantly reminded of what others have said on the matter, even if they only said the same things in rather different words.

This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Physics, Experimental and Descriptive This book is the outgrowth of an attempt, covering a period of six years, to teach physics to young pupils in a manner which combines simplicity of language and presentation with the important manifestations of matter which constantly make up their environment. It is the aim of the text to combine experimental and descriptive instruction in order that both may be better understood. The authors have sought throughout this book to keep constantly before the pupils things and phenomena which they can see 'and observe. Plain, logical, and accurate statements of fact and explanations have been sought. Formulated statements of definitions and principles relat ing to the subject have been brought out, and as far as practicable, the application has been Shown and illustrated. It has not been the intention to produce a complete work on any particular phase of the subject, but Such an ele mentary treatment of first principles as it is hoped will prove helpful and welcome.
