Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book marks the birth of hydrostatics and pneumatics, introducing groundbreaking experiments and their analysis that shaped our understanding of fluid pressure and air weight. Before this book, it was widely believed that objects were lighter in their own element. The author conducted experiments that disproved these beliefs. He showed that fluids exert pressure in all directions, and that this pressure depends on the depth of the fluid and not its volume or shape, thus establishing the principle of fluid pressure. The author also provided evidence that air has weight, disproving the then-prevalent notion that air was weightless. His experiments and theories laid the foundation for our current understanding of atmospheric pressure and its role in phenomena like Torricellian tubes and barometers. This book revolutionised how we think about fluids and air pressure, leading to significant advancements in fields such as engineering and meteorology. 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 # 9780282397654_0
