Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate relationship between heat and mechanical power, exploring the then-controversial idea of their interchangeability. Set against the backdrop of the 19th-century scientific landscape, the author challenges established theories and proposes a groundbreaking hypothesis known as "molecular vortices." This hypothesis suggests that heat is not a separate substance but rather a form of motion at the molecular level. Through meticulous analysis and mathematical deductions, the author investigates the implications of this hypothesis for various physical phenomena, including the elasticity of gases and vapors, specific heat, and the efficiency of engines. The text delves into concepts such as actual and potential energy, work, and equilibrium, offering a comprehensive framework for understanding energy transformations. By drawing connections between seemingly disparate areas of physics, the author presents a unified vision of the natural world. This book's insights into the nature of heat and energy laid the foundation for the development of thermodynamics and had a profound impact on our understanding of the physical universe, paving the way for advancements in engineering and technology. 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. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9780282748463_0
