Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book contends that a central physical law underlies phenomena in artificial force and natural motion, and even connects chemical action and electricity. The author begins with the electrical phenomena of conduction, charge, current, and tension, demonstrating their interrelatedness. Chemical changes in the voltaic battery cell directly affect the current's strength, and the current in turn produces equivalent chemical decomposition in the fluids it passes through. This leads to the conclusion that electricity arises from chemical changes, and that the current is accompanied by these changes. By extending this line of reasoning to phenomena in natural motion and light, the author argues that the central law applies to a wide range of phenomena, from heavenly motion to the changes in comets and the formation of the Earth. The book offers a novel perspective on the unity of physical forces, suggesting that a single underlying law governs electricity, chemical action, magnetism, light, heat, and motion.
