Synopsis
This book provides a comprehensive introduction to dynamic electricity, a form of electrical energy involved in most electrical apparatus and machinery, from the electrical current to the electric motor. It was written for learners interested in understanding how electricity works, especially those not familiar with the complexities of advanced mathematics. The author begins with Volta's original experiments with the couronne de tasses and the voltaic pile, leading to the modern electric battery. This book then discusses units of electromotive force, resistance, and current, explaining the basic concepts of electric energy and how it flows. The author describes the operation of the voltaic cell, including both chemical and electric actions. Concepts like polarization and the various ways to correct it are clearly detailed using multiple forms of cells as examples. One- and two-fluid cells are covered with subsections devoted to the various types. The book concludes with an examination of how these concepts come together to form a complete electric battery and introduces battery formation. This book is an excellent resource for those who want to understand the fundamental principles of electricity without getting bogged down in complex equations. It is written in clear, concise language, and is well-illustrated with diagrams and examples.
