Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book presents a series of experiments and observations on heat conducted by the author as part of the advanced practical demonstrations in heat at the Cavendish Laboratory in 1884. These demonstrations formed part of a broader educational syllabus that included topics such as the manufacture and calibration of a mercury thermometer, the comparison of mercury and air thermometers, and the determination of the specific heat of water using Bunsen's ice calorimeter. The experiments described in this book focus on the measurement and analysis of heat, and provide a valuable historical perspective on the development of our understanding of thermal physics. 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.
