This book explores the resistance of the air to the motion of projectiles, a subject of great interest to mathematicians, engineers, and ballistics experts for centuries. The author, a professor of applied mathematics, conducted extensive experiments using a chronograph of his own design to measure the velocity of projectiles at various points in their flight. His work provided valuable data and insights, allowing for the calculation of accurate trajectories and a better understanding of the forces acting on projectiles in motion. The book details the author's experimental methods, presents his findings, and discusses their implications for the field of ballistics. Through its rigorous approach and significant contributions to the understanding of projectile motion, this book remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the subject.
