Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book's premise stems from the early stages when scientists believed electricity was an ethereal fluid with a material existence. The author describes how this idea has evolved through the years due to experimentation. Concepts like electromotive force, the generation of electricity, and its measurement are examined, with a focus on the relationship between electrical energy and chemical energy using batteries as an illustrative example. The author discusses the history of different battery types, and the development of the Daniell Cell, a significant step in the history of electrical science. The book concludes by exploring the concept of electrical resistance and how the conductivity of materials impacts the flow of electricity, touching upon the factors that determine the dimensions and weight of telegraph conductors.
