Publisher's Synopsis
""Elementary Treatise On Natural Philosophy, Part 1: Mechanics, Hydrostatics, And Pneumatics"" is a book written by Augustin Privat-Deschanel and first published in 1890. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental principles of natural philosophy, with a focus on mechanics, hydrostatics, and pneumatics. It is intended as a textbook for students of physics and engineering, but is also suitable for anyone interested in the subject.The book is divided into three parts, each covering a different area of natural philosophy. Part 1, which is the subject of this description, covers mechanics, hydrostatics, and pneumatics. It begins with an introduction to the basic concepts of mechanics, such as force, motion, and energy, and then goes on to discuss the laws of motion, including Newton's laws. The book also covers topics such as work, power, and momentum, as well as the principles of hydrostatics and pneumatics.Throughout the book, Privat-Deschanel uses clear and concise language to explain complex concepts, and provides numerous examples and illustrations to help readers understand the material. The book also includes a number of exercises and problems for readers to work through, which are designed to help them test their understanding of the material.Overall, ""Elementary Treatise On Natural Philosophy, Part 1: Mechanics, Hydrostatics, And Pneumatics"" is an essential resource for anyone studying physics or engineering, and provides a solid foundation for further study in these fields.In Four Parts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
