Synopsis

Excerpt from Heat: An Elementary Text-Book, Theoretical and Practical for Colleges and Schools

IT has now come to be generally recognised that the most satisfactory method of teaching the Natural Sciences is by experiments which can be performed by the learners themselves. In consequence many teachers have arranged for their pupils courses of practical instruo tion designed to illustrate the fundamental principles of the subject they teach. The portions of the following book designated experiments have for the most part been in use for some time as a Practical Course for Medical Students at the Cavendish Laboratory.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an introductory text on thermal energy. The author begins by differentiating between heat and temperature, and then examines various methods of measuring temperature, including the use of thermometers. It goes on to explore the concept of specific heat capacity, and the latent heat of fusion and vaporization. The author also discusses the transfer of heat through conduction, convection, and radiation, concluding with an examination of the mechanical equivalent of heat and the first law of thermodynamics. Throughout, the author emphasizes the connection between heat and energy, particularly the ability to convert heat into mechanical work and vice versa.
