Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Treatises on Various Subjects of Natural and Chemical Philosophy: With a Biographical Memoir They are thus described in the work in which they originally appeared: - "The extensive branch of Pneumatics has been elucidated by a number of articles containing many new facts and views. Under the article Acoustics are examined the later experiments and opinions as to the theory of sound. The subject of Balloons has been resumed, in order to trace the progress of discovery with greater precision, and to explain the calculation of the ascent and stability of these machines. This has been done in the article Aeronautics, where also some remarkable aerial voyages are described. With a view to explain the successive steps which led to the discovery of atmospheric pressure, and to state and examine the various formulas that have been proposed for determining heights by the Barometer, there are two articles on that instrument, and its uses in measuring elevations.
