Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Apprentice, or First Book
In developing this subject it is necessary to distinguish units of work from other units; this I prepose to do by writing or setting down the numbers that represent them inclining to the left instead of in the ordinary way, thus.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book tackles the fundamental principles of practical mechanics, a subject sorely lacking in accessible English-language resources at the time of its writing. The author critiques existing treatises on mechanics, finding them too complex for practical application and lacking in clear explanations for the average worker. To address this, the book introduces a new and simplified notation for understanding units of work, a concept central to practical mechanics. The author's approach hinges on the principle of work, arguing that all mechanical processes can be measured in terms of the effort needed to raise a weight against gravity. Through numerous examples, the book demonstrates how this principle applies to various tasks, from raising materials in a mine to operating a forge hammer. This exploration extends to the mechanics of moving bodies on inclined planes and the operation of simple machines like levers, wheels, and pulleys. The book goes beyond mere technical explanations to delve into the efficiency of labor, examining the work output of both humans and animals. It explores the limitations of various machines and the role of friction in affecting their performance. By introducing the concept of "redundant work" and its role in accelerating machines, the book provides a comprehensive understanding of the interplay between work, power, and motion. Ultimately, this book's insights serve as a valuable resource for anyone seeking a practical understanding of the forces governing our world. 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: 9781332101474_0
