Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating realm of electricity and magnetism, specifically exploring static electricity and magnetism ΓΆβ β phenomena that occur when electrical systems are charged and magnetic systems are magnetised. The author adopts the perspective of renowned scientist Michael Faraday, who envisioned an altered state within the material medium existing between electrified bodies, a concept referred to in this book as "electric strain." This exploration builds upon the foundations laid by historical figures like Faraday and James Clerk Maxwell, whose groundbreaking work revolutionised our understanding of electromagnetism. The book meticulously examines fundamental principles through carefully selected experiments, delving into topics such as quantity of electrification, propositions related to inverse square systems, and the concept of electrical level or potential. Furthermore, the author delves into the intriguing properties of dielectrics, specific inductive capacity, and the effects observed in dielectrics when subjected to electric strain. The book's exploration of magnetism covers a wide range of topics, including the general properties of magnets, molecular hypotheses of their constitution, and the intriguing characteristics of substances beyond iron and steel. The book concludes by bridging the gap between magnetism and light, exploring phenomena such as the Faraday rotation and magnetic double refraction, offering insights into the intricate relationship between these seemingly disparate forces. Through its comprehensive analysis and engaging explanations, this book unveils the profound impact of electricity and magnetism on our world. 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 # 9781334258497_0
