Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Natural Philosophy The following Treatise was originally designed to serve as a handbook or companion to the lectures on Natural Philosophy, delivered to the junior division in the Normal School. Although numerous text-books on the subject were already in existence, it was found that they were either too abstruse and technical for beginners, or too general and superficial to be of much practical use. The aim of the present little work is to occupy a position between these extremes - to present the leading facts of the science in a form so concise as to be readily remembered, and at the same time to give that thorough drilling upon the principles which is absolutely essential to their full comprehension. As a hand-book to lectures fully illustrated by apparatus, it was not necessary to introduce many wood-cuts, and accordingly they have been given only where absolutely required. The chief peculiarity of this book consists in the introduction, to a large extent, of problems calculated to impart that intimate and practical knowledge of the facts and principles of Mechanical Science, without which the student's information on the subject is, comparatively speaking, useless. How frequently do we meet with a pupil who has read carefully through one of the common text books on Natural Philosophy without acquiring any very clear or definite ideas of the science!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Elements of Natural Philosophy This work is the result of many years' experience in teaching the science of Physics. In its preparation, the author has endeavored to keep constantly in mind that its value must depend on its availability as a text-book. Accordingly be has made such a selection of the facts and principles embraced in the wide range of Natural Philosophy as, in his judgment, is best suited to the requirements of the pupil. While due attention has been given to the recent progress in Physics, including the latest methods and inventions, it has not been forgotten that all facts are equally fresh to the tyro, although all are not of equal importance, as regards either their fitness for developing the theory of the science, or their application to the practical affairs of life. For this reason, nothing has been introduced for the sake of its novelty; nor have cardinal principles been omitted, because a former generation of pupils has studied them. It has been an object of careful thought to present the science, in all its departments, in a manner at once systematic and symmetrical. Of course, no pretense is made of exhausting the subject, but it is hoped that the student will find in this treatise all that is necessary for his purposes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Principles of Natural Philosophy The growth of physical science has rendered it more and more certain that phenomena of all kinds and in all places are due to the qualities and activities of the ultimate atoms of matter. Astronomy, Geology, Chemistry, and Physiology are each easily reducible to the same factors, and hence these sciences may properly be classed as departments of physical science. The name Physics has heretofore been held to apply to phenomena which could not properly be included in the above sciences. For that reason, and to emphasize the relationship of these to fundamental physical principles, the name Natural Philosophy has been adopted for this book, restoring an old term to its proper place, and giving it its proper meaning. The effort has been made to direct the attention of the student from the physics of mechanism to the physics of molecules, and help him to carry the mechanical conceptions gained by the study of visible bodies to their ultimate particles.

Download or read book Natural Philosophy written by Le Roy C. Cooley and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Natural Philosophy: For Common and High Schools The great aim of this little book is to present the most elementary facts of Natural. Philosophy, in such a way as to exercise the child constantly in observing phenomena and in drawing inferences from what he observes. Whenever a child is old enough to ask such questions, as, "What makes the thunder," or, "Where does the rain come from," or to exclaim "How pretty the clouds are this evening," it is old enough to begin the study of natural philosophy. When such questions are asked the mind is awake to see the phenomena of nature, and is ready to receive instruction. They show the presence of a desire to know, and the absence of power to learn without assistance; and in this way they lead us to believe that the time has come when the work of instruction should begin. Moreover, the study of natural philosophy is easy, and interesting to young pupils, because, when properly presented, it brings new sights to the eye, and new sounds the ear, in a way to be especially pleasant to children. The simplest experiments awaken enthusiasm in the mind of a child, and such as be may he able to repeat by himself are the source of the greatest delight.

Download or read book Natural Philosophy written by William James Rolfe and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Natural Philosophy: For High Schools and Academies The authors were led to prepare this series mainly that they might provide themselves with text-books containing an elementary view of the present state of the Physical Sciences. The general plan and method of the Course were worked out by Mr. Gillet, and thoroughly tested in the class-room by oral teaching, before there was any thought of publishing the books. The authors felt, from experience, that the elementary textbooks on Physics now in use are, as a class, deficient in two important particulars. First, they are sadly behind the times; and, secondly, they fail to give any systematic development of leading principles. A great revolution has taken place during the last twenty-five years in the departments of Chemistry, Electricity, and Heat In Chemistry this revolution has been so complete that the present theories of the science are currently known as "Modern Chemistry." The hypothesis of electric fluids has been swept away, and Heat has been shown to be a mode of molecular motion. It is but recently that Helmholtz has given the correct explanation of the formation of the vowel sounds, of resultants, and of dissonance; and that Tyndall and others have investigated the subject of sounding and sensitive flames. In Optics, too, the cause of long and short sightedness, and the way in which the eye adjusts itself for near and distant objects, have been correctly understood only within a few years. In Astronomy, also, the analysis of solar and stellar light by means of the spectroscope has led to discoveries of the highest interest; while recent investigation has thrown much light upon the nature of the photosphere and spots of the sun.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thoughts on Natural Philosophy and the Origin of Life The author hopes that he will succeed in interest ing the reader, and again cause him to be enraptured with the wondrous work of nature. If the same feeling is aroused of pleased and awed amazement at the exceeding and marvellous beauty of it all, as has been felt by him While thinking and writing, he will not have published his thoughts in vain. Newton thought that electricity, and gravitation and magnetism might possibly be but manifestations of one great controlling power pervading all nature. Faraday searched, throughout his whole life, for this power in vain. It has been discovered (in material motion, and its results of electricity, magnetism, gravitation, etc.) by the author, and proved in this book and by experiment.
