Synopsis
Excerpt from Mechanics for Beginners, Vol. 1: Dynamics and Statics
The Static Theory of Parallel Forces is deduced very' simply from the Theory of Moments by the consideration of a system of parallel forces as a particular case of forces meeting at a point.
A combination of Morin's and Atwood's machines which I have suggested on p. 46 will I think be found useful by way of illustration. The chapter on the Pendulum is abbreviated from the latest edition (1891) of my Dynamics.
I may mention that in view of the publication of this book, the scope of my Dynamics has been some what enlarged in the latest edition by the addition of a chapter on Simple Harmonic Motion and the Pen dulum, of some articles on Units and other minor points.
The Dynamical portion of the book is treated in a manner so different to that which has of late been customary in elementary text-books that I venture to ask Teachers and others who may use the book kindly to favor me with suggestions or criticisms. Of the value of this method Of treating the subject as an introduction to the study of Mechanics I have received the very highest testimony from many Teachers - but there must be in a new book of this kind many details capable of improvement and many faults of omission besides other defects. Any communication on the subject will be gratefully acknowledged by myself or by the Publishers.

Mechanics for Beginners, Vol. 1: Dynamics and Statics (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fundamental principles of dynamics and statics, offering a clear and accessible introduction to these core concepts in mechanics. The author, drawing upon his previous works, presents a systematic exploration of motion, forces, and their interactions within a framework that emphasizes both theoretical understanding and practical application. The book's approach is particularly noteworthy for its focus on the concept of average velocity as a means of understanding accelerated motion. This method provides a more intuitive and rigorous explanation than traditional approaches, making the concepts readily graspsble for students. Furthermore, the text explores the relationship between parallel forces and moments, highlighting the elegant simplicity of this theoretical framework and its applicability to real-world systems. The author's innovative method of treating dynamics, alongside his emphasis on engaging examples and problems, makes this book an invaluable resource for students and anyone seeking a thorough grounding in the fundamental principles of mechanics. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332022106_0
