Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Elementary Lessons in Electricity Magnetism These Elementary Lessons have now been largely rewritten. The considerable changes made have been necessitated not only by the progress of the science but by the piracy, covert as well as open, to which since its appearance in 1881 the book has been subjected. In the thirteen years which have elapsed much addition has been made to our knowledge, and many points then in controversy have been settled. The system of electric units, elaborated first by the British Association and subsequently in several International Congresses, is now legalized in the chief civilized countries. New magnetic surveys - in England by Thorpe and Rücker, in the United States under Mendenhall - have enabled new magnetic charts to be prepared for the epoch 1900 A.D. The researches of Ewing, Hopkinson, and others on the magnetic properties of iron, and the general recognition of the principle of the magnetic circuit, have advanced the science of magnetism, to which also Ewing´s molecular theory has given an added interest. The properties of alternate currents, of which in 1881 little was known, have been forced into study by the extension of their industrial uses in telephony and in electric lighting.
