Sinopsis

Excerpt from Electrical Problems for Engineering Students

"Electrical Problems" has been written in the belief that there is a field and should be a demand for this class of textbook.

In physical science generally, and especially in engineering, knowledge is of use only so far as we are able to calculate numerical results, and ability to obtain such results quickly and accurately is to be obtained only by extensive practice. Then, too, the ordinary mind arrives at a clear conception of general principles only by the way of concrete examples. To the aver age student mathematical formulæ are vague and uninviting until he has himself made practical application of them.

For some years the students of electrical engineering in Tufts College have been largely exercised in the solution of numerical problems, and both the experience of the instructors and the testimony of the students themselves clearly indicate the value of such work in rendering clear and precise their views of electrical phenomena. Especially valuable in clarifying the students conceptions of physical relations are those problems whose answers appear in the form of curves, showing the effects of varying the quantities involved.

Most of the problems in this book have already been presented to the electrical classes in Tufts College. Nevertheless, among so large a number it is probable that errors, especially in the answers, remain to be corrected.
