Elementary Text Book Of Hydrostatics PDF Download

Excerpt from An Elementary Text-Book of Dynamics and Hydrostatics The design of this Text-book is to explain all that is usually included in a first course of Dynamics. In accordance with the now common acceptation of the term, I have called Dynamics the Science of Force. The book therefore treats of what was formerly, and occasionally still is, called Theoretical Mechanics. Great pains have been taken with the early chapters, which deal with the fundamental principles of Dynamics and with the subject of units. Throughout the book every important proposition is fol lowed by numerical examples fully worked out, and by others which are left as exercises for the student. These examples have been taken from examination papers set in the South Kensington, Civil Service, and University Examinations. Specimen Examination Papers are given at the end of the book.
