Excerpt from The Principles of Hydrostatics: Designed for the Use of Students in the University
(Art. 1.) The science which treats of the nature and properties of Fluids has been usually divided into the following branches: Hydrostatics, which comprises the doctrine of the equilibrium of non-elastic fluids, as water, mercury, &c.; Hydraulics, which relates to the motion of those fluids; and Pneumatics, which treats of the properties of the different kinds of airs. But these are now all included under the general term Hydrostatics.
(2.) A Fluid is a body whose parts are put in motion one amongst another by any force impressed; and which, when the impressed force is removed, restores itself to its former state.
Fluids may be divided into elastic and non-elastic. An elastic fluid is one, whose dimensions are diminished by increasing the pressure, and increased by diminishing the pressure upon it; of which description are the different kinds of airs. A non-elastic fluid is one, whose dimensions are not, at least as to sense, affected by any increase of pressure, as water, mercury, &c.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on the nature and properties of fluids at rest and in motion. The author collected a wide range of knowledge on the subject to create a comprehensive text that delves into various topics, including the equilibrium of non-elastic fluids, the specific gravities of bodies, the resistance of fluids, the times of emptying vessels, phenomena such as spouting fluids, the attraction of cohesion, capillary attraction, elastic fluids, and more. The author established many principles upon which we reason in this branch of philosophy, and the book remains a valuable resource for understanding the properties of fluids and their behavior under different conditions. 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. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781330184547_0
