Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mechanics of Electricity The general consensus of opinion at present is that electricity is something. Lodge writes, Electricity may possibly be a form of matter - it is not a form of energy. We have nowhere asserted that electricity and the ether are identical. If they are, we are bound to admit that the ether, though fluid in the sense of enabling masses to move freely through it, has a certain amount of rigidity for enormously rapid and minute oscillatory disturbances. Is the ether electricity then? I do not say so, neither do I think that in that coarse statement lies the truth; but that they are connected there can be no doubt. Clausius surmised that electricity might be the ether, and if we may judge from certain passages the surmise amounted to a belief. This belief was, of course, not based upon any direct proof, for that is hardly possible, but was rather of the nature of an intuition. He seems to have been alone in this opinion. The object of this book is to show that electricity and the ether are identical. The ether is electricity and electricity is the ether. It been sought, through the cumulative and corroborative evidence of the phenomena to raise a presumption that amounts almost to a certainty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Views of Electricity The most interesting and important portion of physics at the present day is that constantly growing portion which is concerned with the properties and function of the universal connecting medium, the ether. All the phenomena of light, of electricity, and of magnetism, as well as of what is spoken of as radiant heat, are intimately connected with, and indeed Wholly dependent on, that medium; it is through these agencies that We have gradually become aware of its existence and able in some degree to Investigate it. Probably gravitation, cohesion, and chemical affinity are no less Closely associated with the ether; and it is becoming doubtful Whether matter itself could exist without it.

This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism, Vol. 1 In describing the phenomena, I shall select those which most clearly illustrate the fundamental ideas of the theory, omitting others, or reserving them till the reader is more advanced. The most important aspect of any phenomenon from a mathematical point of view is that of a measurable quantity. I shall therefore consider electrical pheno mena chiefly with a view to their measurement, de scribing the methods of measurement, and defining the standards on which they depend. In the application of mathematics to the calculation of electrical quantities, I shall endeavour in the first place to deduce the most general conclusions from the data at our disposal, and in the next place to apply the results to the simplest cases that can be chosen. I shall avoid, as much as I can, those questions which, though they have elicited the skill of mathematicians, have not enlarged our knowledge of science.

Download or read book Elementary Electricity Classic Reprint written by Sydney George Starling and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-20 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary Electricity AN attempt has been made in this book to represent the subject of electricity in a logical manner, and to keep in View its present-day aspect as well as its history. Magnetism is no longer treated as a separate subject, as modern theory holds that magnetism is an attribute of electricity in motion, that is, of the electric current. As an introduction to the subject one of the most familiar applications of electricity is Chosen - the electric incandescent lamp, and from this the rest is developed. Those branches of magnetism which stand apart from the main thread of the treatment of electricity, namely, terrestrial magnetism and the magnetic properties of materials, are relegated to the two last chapters. One of the most difficult conceptions for the student, that of potential, is introduced in the treatment of electricity at rest, that is, electrostatics, as it is here a simple quantity. Its relation to the rate of working in the case of a current then follows easily. While fitted for classes of students studying electricity with an examination in view, the book is also intended to give them a wide outlook upon the subject in its present state of development. For this reason chapters on electric waves and wireless telegraphy and telephony, electrons and X-rays and radioactivity are added; in fact there is a tendency in modern examinations to introduce these subjects to a small extent in order to make electricity a living rather than a historical subject. Only well-established facts have been included, but these prepare the way for the intensely interesting subject of the modern theories of the constitution of matter which the student may follow later.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electricity and Magnetism: An Elementary d104-Book, Theoretical and Practical When I ceased to deliver the first year course I was asked to print my lectures for the use, primarily, of the Students attending the practical classes; the lectures on Mechanics, Heat and Light have been in type for some years. Other claims on my time have prevented the issue of the present volume until now, when it appears in response to the promise made several years ago. Meanwhile the subject has changed; but while this is the case the elementary laws and measurements on which the science is based remain unaltered, and I trust the book may he found of service to others besides my successors at the Cavendish Laboratory. As in the other books of the Series, I have again to thank Mr Fitzpatrick for his very valuable assistance. He has read all the proofs and suggested numerous improvements, and has thus brought the book up to date as representing a course which many years' experience has proved to be a useful one for elementary students.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Theory of Electricity The treatment is based mainly on the original faraday-maxwell theory, generalised and extended to the case of moving systems by Sir Joseph Larmor. This form of the theory has been almost entirely abandoned in recent accounts of the subject, but it remains the only one which appears to be completely satisfactory from the point of View of mathematical and physical consistency, and in its generality it is unapproached by any other form.

This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A First Book of Applied Electricity IN this presentation of a few of the elementary principles that underlie the useful applications of electricity and magnetism, reference has been made to the manifestations of electricity which are most often met with in daily life, without first requiring the reader to survey aspects of the subject which, although of ultimate theoretical importance, are not the basis of the applications with which he is already acquainted. For this reason, it has been sought to make the reader familiar with electric currents and their various effects, pointing out how some of these are applied, before he is introduced to electro statics; for it is considered more important for him to think in volts and amperes than in electrostatic units. In a Work of this size, it would have been impossible to enter into details of real electrical engineering practice without unduly restricting the outline of the principles involved. Only the most elementary mathematics are employed, and the object has been more to help to give an under standing of principles than to provide the equipment for the exact calculations which will be of more profit at a later stage when those principles have been mastered.

This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary Lessons in Electricity and Magnetism The name electricity is also given to that branch of science which deals with electric phenomena and theories. The phenomena, and the science which deals with them, fall under four heads. The manifestations of electricity when standing still are different from those of electricity moving or flowing along hence we have to consider separately the properties of (i.) statical charges, and those of (ii.) currents. Further, electricity whirling round or in circulation possesses properties which were independently discovered under the name of (iii.) magnetism. Lastly, electricity when in a state of rapid vibration manifests new properties not possessed in any of the previous states, and causes the propagation of (iv.) waves. These four branches of the science of electricity are, however, closely connected. The object of the present work is to give the reader a general view of the main facts and their simple relations to one another.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electricity and Matter In these Lectures given at Yale University in May, 1903, I have attempted to discuss the bear ing of the recent advances made in Electrical Science on our views of the Constitution of Matter and the Nature of Electricity; two questions which are probably so intimately connected, that the solution of the one would supply that of the other. A characteristic feature of recent Electri cal Researches, such as the study and discovery of Cathode and Rontgen Rays and Radioactive Substances, has been the very especial degree in which they have involved the relation between Matter and Electricity.

This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Measurements in Magnetism and Electricity The student who makes these experiments should keep careful notes, adding to the apparatus recommended any thing that may seem desirable, varying the manipulation, and drawing such conclusions as the experiment teaches. He should also keep a full set of notes on observations made. The accuracy and fullness of these notes will be an index of the benefit that he is receiving from the work. N o attempt has been made to cover more than a small part of the field; but the belief is entertained that a thorough familiarity with the principles and experiments outlined in this book will provide a good foundation for a more extended study, or for the practical application of these principles to the requirements of practice.
