Excerpt from The Elements of Statics and Dynamics
The science which treats of the action of force on bodies in motion is called Dynamics. In the more modern system of nomenclature which is gradually gaining general acceptance, the science which treats of the action of force on bodies is called Dynamics, and it has two subdivisions, Statics and Kinetics, treating of the action of forces on bodies which are at rest and in motion respectively.

Excerpt from The Elements of Statics and Dynamics, Vol. 1
In the following work I have aimed at writing a working text-book on Statics for the use of Junior Students.
Throughout the book will be found a large number of examples; most of them, with the exception of many of those at the end of the Chapter on Friction and the Miscellaneous Examples at the end of the volume, are of an easy type.
I have tried to make the book complete as far as it goes; it is suggested, however, that the student should, on the first reading of the subject, omit everything marked with an asterisk.
I must express my obligations to my friend Mr H. C. Robson, M.A., Fellow and Lecturer of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, for his kindness in reading through the proof-sheets, and for many suggestions that he has made to me.
Any corrections of errors, or hints for improvement will be thankfully received.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book, first published in 1890, offers a comprehensive exploration of statics, a branch of physics concerned with the forces acting on objects at rest. The author delves into fundamental concepts like the composition and resolution of forces, parallel forces, moments, and couples. The book also explores the important concept of equilibrium, examining the conditions necessary for a body to remain at rest under the influence of multiple forces. The text is enriched with numerous examples and exercises, making it an ideal resource for junior students seeking a thorough understanding of statics. The book's explanations are clear and concise, and it follows a systematic approach to introduce the principles of statics, grounded in the work of earlier pioneers like Stevinus of Bruges. It features detailed explanations of key concepts, such as the Parallelogram of Forces and the Triangle of Forces, alongside illustrative diagrams that help visualize complex relationships between forces. The authorââ â¢s goal is to equip students with a solid foundation in the practical applications of statics, providing insights into the mechanics of levers, pulleys, inclined planes, and other simple machines. The book also delves into the complex topic of friction, offering a comprehensive analysis of its effects on equilibrium and the efficiency of machines. This book serves as a valuable tool for aspiring engineers and scientists, providing a robust foundation in the principles of statics and its role in understanding the world around us.
