A Revised Account of the Experiments Made with the Bashforth Chronograph, to Find the Resistance of the Air to the Motion of Projectiles: With the ... According to J. Bernoulli's Method - Softcover
Synopsis
Explore the science of air resistance through original experiments.
This edition presents Francis Bashforth's revised account of experiments using the Bashforth Chronograph to measure how air slows projectile motion, with practical applications to calculating trajectories in Bernoulli’s method.
The work collects detailed observations, data, and derived results that link empirical tests to mathematical models of flight. It sheds light on early methods for predicting paths of projectiles by combining experimental results with theory.- See how a chronograph-based setup captured measurements for fast-moving projectiles
- Examine data tables and calculations used to model air resistance
- Learn how the results were applied to trajectory calculations
- Gain insight into 19th-century dynamics and scientific methods

A Revised Account of the Experiments Made With the Bashforth Chronograph
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the resistance of the air to the motion of projectiles, a subject of great interest to mathematicians, engineers, and ballistics experts for centuries. The author, a professor of applied mathematics, conducted extensive experiments using a chronograph of his own design to measure the velocity of projectiles at various points in their flight. His work provided valuable data and insights, allowing for the calculation of accurate trajectories and a better understanding of the forces acting on projectiles in motion. The book details the author's experimental methods, presents his findings, and discusses their implications for the field of ballistics. Through its rigorous approach and significant contributions to the understanding of projectile motion, this book remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the subject. 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 # 9781332996391_0
