Excerpt from Principles of Physics I: Mechanics, Heat and Sound The title of the book, Principles of Physics, has been chosen deliber ately to indicate that its emphasis is on physical principles. Historical background and practical applications have been given a place of secondary importance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Heat, a Mode of Motion The reception of the work proved that it met a general want. Not only has its success in this country been far greater than was ever hoped for, but large editions of it have been published and circulated in France, Russia, and the United States.

Excerpt from Mechanics and Heat: An Elementary Course of Applied Physics AN attempt is made in this volume to provide a practical statement of the principles of Mechanics and Heat, likely to awaken interest in the application of these sciences, for pupils who as yet have not come in contact with the practice of engineering and the allied constructive arts. The new science syllabus prescribed by the Civil Service Commissioners for candidates for Second Division Clerkships includes (1) the fundamental principles of Mechanics and (2) Heat as two of the sections, the former being obligatory for all candidates who offer science. The syllabus is distinguished by the prominence given to practical applications of scientific principles; and the present volume has been written in the same spirit. While the book contains all that is required of candidates who take the subjects referred to in Civil Service Examinations for Second Division Clerkships, its contents are not limited by the syllabus of that examination. The course of work should be found suitable also for use in the Upper Forms of those Secondary Schools where it is customary to introduce boys to practical applications of the physical principles studied. This application of principles is explained in the following chapters, partly by a large number of fully worked-out problems of the kind which present themselves in everyday workshop life, and partly by carefully designed laboratory experiments. The subjects of the experimental course have been brought together on pp. Xi to xiii, and an examination of the nature of the experiments proposed will Show that points of practical interest and importance have been emphasised consistently. Additional exercises, for home or class work, will be found at the end of each chapter. A number of these questions have been extracted from examination papers of the Board of Educa tion, and for permission to do this, thanks are due to the Controller of His Majesty's Stationery Office.

Excerpt from Theoretical Physics, Vol. 1: Mechanics and Heat, Newton-Carnot Those who believe in the possibility of a mechanical conception of the universe and are not willing to abandon the methods which from the time of Galileo and Newton have uniformly and exclusively led to success, must look with the gravest concern on a gron school of scientific thought which rests content with equations correctly represent ing numerical relationships between different phenomena, even though no precise meaning can be attached to the symbols used.'

A completely revised edition that combines a comprehensive coverage of statistical and thermal physics with enhanced computational tools, accessibility, and active learning activities to meet the needs of today's students and educators This revised and expanded edition of Statistical and Thermal Physics introduces students to the essential ideas and techniques used in many areas of contemporary physics. Ready-to-run programs help make the many abstract concepts concrete. The text requires only a background in introductory mechanics and some basic ideas of quantum theory, discussing material typically found in undergraduate texts as well as topics such as fluids, critical phenomena, and computational techniques, which serve as a natural bridge to graduate study. Completely revised to be more accessible to students Encourages active reading with guided problems tied to the text Updated open source programs available in Java, Python, and JavaScript Integrates Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations and other numerical techniques Self-contained introductions to thermodynamics and probability, including Bayes' theorem A fuller discussion of magnetism and the Ising model than other undergraduate texts Treats ideal classical and quantum gases within a uniform framework Features a new chapter on transport coefficients and linear response theory Draws on findings from contemporary research Solutions manual (available only to instructors)

Excerpt from Physics for Technical Students: Mechanics and Heat We now have a large and rapidly increasing number of students who are interested primarily In the practical side of education. 1 With the needs of these students In mind, the practical side of the subject has been emphasized throughout the book. This method, it is believed, will sustain interest in the subject by showing its application affairs, and will, it is hoped, be appreciated by both students and instructors in Agriculture and Engineering. In this connection, attention is directed to sections 18, 19, 20, 29, 30, 39, 44, 54, 56, 60, 62, 63, 76, 80, 83, 108, 109, 111, 134, 138, 170, 185, 189, 190, 195, 200, 204, 205, 206, 218 and Chapters VII, XII, XVII, and XVIII. More space than usual has been devoted to the treatment of Force, Torque, Translatory Motion, and Rotary Motion. It is felt that the great importance of these topics, which underlie so much of the subsequent work of the student, warrants such treatment. Probably everyone who has taught the theory of electrical measuring instruments, for example, has realized that the student's greatest handicap IS the lack of a thorough grasp of the fundamental principles of mechanics. The student who has thoroughly mastered elementary mechanics has done much toward preparing himself for effective work in technical lines.
