About this title

Synopsis

Hydrostatical and Pneumatical Lectures is a book written by Roger Cotes in 1775. The book is a collection of lectures that cover the topics of hydrostatics and pneumatics. Hydrostatics is the study of fluids at rest, while pneumatics is the study of gases and their properties. The book is divided into two parts: the first part covers hydrostatics, and the second part covers pneumatics. In the first part, Cotes discusses the properties of fluids, such as pressure, density, and buoyancy. He also covers the principles of hydrostatic equilibrium and the behavior of fluids in containers of different shapes and sizes. In the second part of the book, Cotes discusses the properties of gases, such as pressure, temperature, and volume. He also covers the behavior of gases in different containers and the principles of gas laws. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both students and professionals in the fields of physics and engineering. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the principles of hydrostatics and pneumatics, and it remains a classic text in these fields.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
