Elementary Treatise on Physics, Experimental and Applied, for the Use of Colleges and Schools
Excerpt from Elementary Treatise on Physics, Experimental and Applied, for the Use of Colleges and Schools
IN the present edition some changes will be found in the arrangement of subjects and chapters. In heat the subjects of Solution, Equi librium, and Liquefaction have been put into separate chapters, and Radiant Heat has been removed to the book on light, and treated under the head of Radiation. Considerable additions have been made to the chapters on dynamo  electric machines, telegraphy, electric oscillations and wireless telegraphy. New matter will also be found in connection with the following (amongst other) gyroscopes and their applications in modern inventions, aerial navigation, colour photography, turbine engines, refrigeration and radio-activity. To make room for these additions without unduly increasing the thickness of the book much matter, that seemed no longer of interest or import ance, has been omitted. Nevertheless, the edition contains 60 more pages than its predecessor, and 58 more illustrations.
