Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles of Physics, Designed for Use as a Textbook of General Physics It also presents the subject in the way in which it can most easily be apprehended. The progress of discovery has been along the lines of least intellectual resistance, and it is probable that what was easiest to discover once will now be the easiest to understand. It further enables us to pursue the argument whereby a physical law is established, sometimes almost in the words, and generally along the course of thought, of its original discoverer, so that the mind is brought into intimate relationship with the great minds of the past, and experiences the intellectual exhilaration which such a relationship always brings with it. A fairly faithful adherence to my plan has resulted in the necessary omission of many details of fact and theory which are commonly presented in textbooks of physics. For these the student must look to the course of experimental lectures or of laboratory practice, one or both of which should form part of a course of instruction in which this book is used. To illustrate the principles discussed and to introduce many important theorems without breaking up too much the continuity of the argument, I have made use of the examples which are placed in groups in various parts of the book. With the same purpose, some of the demonstrations of theorems which are of first importance in themselves, but the formal demonstration of which is of secondary importance for the student, have been put in fine print. The use of the historical outline accounts for what is nowadays the unusual order followed in the presentation of some of the subjects. It leads to a much fuller discussion of statics than is generally given, and to other peculiar features of the treatment, such as the use of the statical measure of force, the belated introduction of the relations of heat to energy, the use of the method of rays in geometrical optics, and to other minor divergences from common practice. In the alternative methods which are frequently employed, the true inductive order is either avoided or obscured, and the course of thought followed is neither natural nor that which would be followed by an investigator. I have ventured to name the book Principles of Physics, not to make a claim that it presents a complete and critical study of the foundations of the subject, but to indicate the object which, however imperfectly, I have tried to attain, that is, the exposition of the principal physical laws and theories in the light of the arguments by which they were established.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Text-Book of General Physics: For the Use of Colleges and Scientific Schools The class of students for which this text-book is designed is supposed to have a useful knowledge of trigonometry, but not of calculus. This is in agreement with the courses of instruction in most of our American colleges; but it has ordinarily the disadvantage of leaving rather a large inter val between the study of the philosophy of physics and the application of its principles to engineering. Especially true is this of thermodynamics and electricity where it is Often difficult for the student to recognize the fact that the un accustomed mathematical processes are simply easier means of attaining an understanding of a physical problem and not an end in themselves. For this reason the subjects men tioned are developed with somewhat more completeness than usual, so that the engineering student can find the essential notions of his advanced work logically connected with those acquired at an earlier time. Of course such an extension implies an exercise of choice on the 'part of the teacher as to what may be omitted in first reading with a class of which only a portion expects to pursue the subject farther. In Chapter XLI will be found a treatment, quite ele mentary in character, of the limiting powers of optical instruments. This is, of course, of great philosophical in terest, because it is by the means of such instruments that we attain the greatest enlargement of our intellectual horizon. Notwithstanding the simplicity of the exposition, it does-not seem to have been done before in unmathematical language.

Download or read book A Text Book of Physics Classic Reprint written by Alexander Wilmer Duff and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-09-22 with total page 708 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Text-Book of Physics It will be seen as we proceed that in some parts of the subject the relations between observed facts are better understood than in other parts. Thus in Mechanics the relations between phe nomena have been so well ascertained that we are able to start from a few simple laws regarding the motions of bodies and from these deduce explanations of the most complicated motions. In other parts of the subject we must be content to take from time to time some one principle and trace the logical consequences of it as far as we can, and then proceed to do the same with other principles. After classifying and studying a group of facts, the procca by which we arrive at some underlying principle is called Induction. Thus, the principle of gravitation was discovered by Newton after a careful comparison of the motions of falling bodies and of the moon and the planets. Having found a general principle underlying and binding together many phenomena, we my reason forward from it and deduce other known or unknown facts, as in Geometry we deduce one proposition from another. This process is called Deduction. In a brief account of Physics we must necessarily use deductive more frequently than inductive methods; but, where space will permit, the efiort may be made to show how by induction important fundamental principles have been discovered.
