Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Applications of Electricity, Vol. 1 of 2 In the present wholly revised edition, a large number of important alterations and additions have been made, with the view of giving an account of the numerous inventions which have during the last two years been made in practical electricity. The necessity of a second edition twelve months after the publication of the first clearly shows the general interest taken in the subject which is treated in this book; and, on the other hand, the necessity of dividing the book into two volumes must be ascribed to the enormous progress electrical appliances have lately made, and are making daily and hourly. As a practical illustration of this progress, I may mention that this preface has been set up in type by a composing machine which is worked by electricity. In the first volume a considerable number of electric generators and are lamps have been added to those given originally, and a better account of the incandescent lamps will, I trust, be likewise acceptable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electricity in the Service of Man, Vol. 1: A Popular and Practical Treatise on the Applications of Electricity to Modern Life; The History and Principles of Electrical Science Early History Of Magnetism - Nothing certain is known about the exact period when the compass was brought to Europe. We find in a piece of poetry called La Bible, composed by Guyot de Provins, dated 1190, some lines to the effect that sailors consulted the magnetic needle when bad weather set in. Jacques de Vitry, in his Historia Naturalis (1215 mentions the magnetic needle as being at that time no longer a novelty. The first European who took into account the declinations of the needle was probably Christopher Columbus. Its deflection from the due north had been previously attributed to the incorrect construction of the instrument. Variations in the deflection of the needle at the same place were first noticed by Henry Gellibrand in the year 1634.

Download or read book Applied Electricity for Practical Men Classic Reprint written by Arthur John Rowland and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Applied Electricity for Practical Men This volume has been in the process of making during twenty years' experience in teaching Applied Electricity to practical electrical workers; to men who expect to make direct application of the principles given them in the class room to their daily work with commercial circuits and machinery. It is written wholly from the standpoint of the one who puts up and operates electric circuits and apparatus. It does not touch problems of apparatus design. Pure theory is avoided, except as it has direct bearing upon practical matters. The principles stated and the explana tions of apparatus which are ofiered are only such as are necessary in order to present essential elements. They can be elaborated by the instructor as much as he may see fit. Every teacher understands the importance of numerical prob lems in order to make clear the principles and performance of apparatus. It is with this in mind that the set of problems found at the end of each chapter has been made up. Even though the computations demanded in the solution of many of the problems of this book are not required in everyday practical work, it is important to understand how a thing works; and unless one can make a computation regarding it and figure out a numerical result, no clear conceptions have been secured.

Download or read book Electricity Experimentally and Practically Applied written by Sydney Whitmore Ashe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electricity Experimentally and Practically Applied: A Book for the Beginner and for the Practical Man, Principles, Experiments, Practical Applications and Problems Although a number of excellent works on practical electrical engineering are already in use, the author believes there is a place for a volume that will present the subject from an experimental standpoint. For many years the author has taught the subject of electrical engineering by means of experimental lectures and laboratory work to large numbers of practical men. Since these students have often lacked mathematical training, it has been nec essary to explain the subject-matter in a very simple way, showing, wherever possible, its practical features. The same method of presentation has been used in this text, and it is hoped that a much larger audience may thus be reached and benefited. This volume is particularly adapted to courses of instruction given to those engaged in actual electrical work; it should likewise prove useful as a text for high schools and for college laboratory courses.

This book was released on 2017-06-07 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Home Study Course in Practical Electricity, Vol. 1 of 3: An Electrical Catechism Th'e keener competition in engineering, of late years, has forced the need for a more accurate and complete training of those who would succeed in this work. Young men starting in the electrical business without proper training are seriously handicapped, as are also practical workers such as power station men, engineers, electricians and operators of electrical machinery who have not acquired a fundamental knowledge of their work, so that it is no longer a question of choice whether or not they shall thoroughly understand the facts and principles of electricity; it is a matter of necessity. The purpose of the 1400 Questions and Answers given here is to meet this need by providing a simple and easily mastered course of instruction in practical electricity and the elements of electrical engineering. The contents should also prove useful as a reference guide for those who desire to brush up on rusty points and as a source of information for all who have occasion to use electricity in any form.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Electricity, Vol. 1: Laboratory and Lecture Course, for First Year Students of Electrical Engineering, Based on the International Definitions of the Electrical Units; Current, Pressure, Resistance, Energy, Power and Cells Exactly ten years have elapsed since the preface to the first edition of this book was written - a decade which has seen a'vast development in the applications of elec tricity to industrial purposes, and the springing up in all parts of the kingdom of Technical Schools and Colleges where much attention is devoted to the study of electro technics. Hence, to day it IS far more easy for a student to connect his experimental apparatus with the electric light mains and use a comparatively large current at a pressure of 100 volts, than it was in 1886 to obtain a small current at a much lower pressure from the battery which he had to set up for the purpose. This possibility of carrying out the experiments on a larger scale has led to considerable simplification in certain cases; for ex ample, ih experimentally determining the heat equivalent of electric energy, it 'is no longer necessary to distract the beginner's attention with a variety of corrections for the loss of heat, &c.

This book was released on 2018-02-18 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Century of Electricity, Vol. 1 The other is of much greater interest, and will be found in the statement of the law of electro-magnetic induction at the foot Of page 159. It is here stated that, when an electric current is passed through one of two parallel wires, it causes at first a current in the same direction in the other, while the fact is that the direction of the current is opposite to that in the inducing Wire. Such an error in the statement of one of the most familiar principles of the science might easily be attributed to a lapsus calami, followed by careless proof-reading. In this instance, however, the principle is given, as stated in the text, in Faraday's own words, and, curiously enough, the distinguished discoverer committed the blunder himself, in communicat ing the result of his magnificent research to his friend Phillips, in a letter dated at Brighton, November 29, 1831; at least, it is so printed In Dr. Bence Jones's Life of Faraday, from which the statement was copied without a thought as to its correctness.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electricity in Modern Life IN this little volume I have endeavored to give a brief but intelligible and connected sketch of the more important of the numerous useful functions fulfilled by Electricity in modern daily life, the scientific principles underlying these practical applications, and the history of their development. It is addressed primarily to readers who have no previous knowledge of the subject, but who wish to know something of what Electricity has been made to do for us, and of how it has been made to do it. I trust, however, that it may also be of some use to students who are just beginning the study of practical Electricity, by giving them a general view of the field of knowledge which they will afterward have to study in detail.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Electricity Seven years in the making, is the record for Practical Elec tricity. Some Of the material was written during the years from 1910 to 1913 for the American Electrician's Handbook, but it developed that the text thus prepared was not suitable for a handbook. Hence, it was stored away temporarily and has been incorporated in the present volume. Since June, 1916, a very considerable portion Of the author's time and effort has been devoted to this work. Practical Electricity was written for certain definite purposes. Primarily, its Object is to present the fundamental facts and theo ries relating to electricity and its present-day applications in a straight-forward, easily-understood way for study by any man, Of little mathematical training, who desires to acquire a working knowledge of the subject. If a man understands arithmetic he should be able to get the meat out of this book. Secondarily, the book was designed for university graduates who desire a medium whereby they can, with minimum efiort, review, refresh and re construct in line with modern theory and practice their concepts Of electric and magnetic phenomena. While it has not been found necessary to use the higher mathematics, the statements and ex planations are technically accurate.
