Explore the fundamentals and experiments of electrostatic induction in Gordon’s classic lectures.
This nonfiction work gathers the long history of induction, from Faraday’s ideas to modern demonstrations, and explains how electrified bodies influence nearby matter. It presents the problems, methods, and apparatus used to study induction with clear, step‑by‑step examples.
The volume leads readers through key concepts, from the difference between conductor and insulator to the practical setup of controlled experiments. It includes discussions of how dielectrics alter electric effects, how rapid electrical reversal works, and how light interacts with electric fields. The text blends theory with detailed descriptions of instruments, measurements, and striking demonstrations that illuminate the nature of electricity and its relation to light.Die Inhaltsangabe kann sich auf eine andere Ausgabe dieses Titels beziehen.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the discoveries and theories that have shaped our understanding of electromagnetism and induction. It explores how electric induction occurs between two electrified bodies, and the question of whether this action is a direct force at a distance, or a state of strain in the intervening space. The author traces the development of the study of induction from the work of Faraday and Maxwell to the present day, examining the role of induction in phenomena such as electric charge, conduction, and the Leyden jar. The book concludes by discussing the connection between electricity and light, and explores the significance of induction in understanding the nature of these two fundamental forces. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the history and development of the study of electromagnetism and induction, offering insights into the fundamental principles that govern these phenomena.
