No policy could have a more sinister influence on progress or place such a final limit on the student's actual usefulness in his vocation. If any of the great discoveries or inventions which have revolutionised civilization be examined and tracked back to its source, we invariably find a man working in some apparently quite useless field of research, with no object in view other than the acquisition of knowledge. Utility never enters his head, for the stage of the work engaging his immediate attention is such that no living man is in a position to say what is "useful" and what is not. The useless of to-day may be of paramount importance to-morrow. When Volta in 1800 made his voltaic pile and obtained a feeble current of electricity, and Oersted in 1820 discovered the action of a current on a magnet; when Davy in 1821 demonstrated the power of a current to magnetise steel, and Faraday in 1831 showed that a current in one circuit could induce a current in another circuit, no one could foretell that these discoveries would lead to the production of a dynamo which, when rotated at Chelsea, could propel an electric train at Hampstead. The contemporaries of the pioneers just mentioned may have said to them: "This is all very interesting, but what is the use of it?" If they had answered: - "In less than a century these principles will enable a man in London to speak to a man in Paris," they would have been laughed at. Again, we may note that great discoveries and inventions have seldom if ever been made by one man.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces the fundamental concepts of Physics. The author guides readers through units of measurement, properties of solids, liquids, and gases, and other basic principles. Throughout, the theory is supported by practical experiments which can be carried out with simple homemade apparatus. This book aims to equip technical students with a solid foundation in the principles of physics, preparing them for further study and eventual careers in the field. By understanding the fundamental properties of matter and energy, readers will gain a deeper appreciation of the applications of physics in the world around us.
