The Elements Of Mechanics And Hydrostatics PDF Download

Excerpt from The Elements of Mechanics; Including Hydrostatics: With Numerous Examples It is the design of the following Work to supply a manual, by the aid of which a Student may intelligently prosecute the study of Natural Philosophy in the earlier stages of his Mathematical course. The Work is divided into two parts. The First Part embraces the more elementary portions of Mechanics, and can be read by a Student who has advanced as far as the earlier propositions of the Sixth Book of Euclid, and the Solution of Quadratic Equations. Those Sections in which Trigonometrical expressions are employed, are so arranged that they may be omitted on a first reading. In the Second Part, the subjects are carried on to the point at which a knowledge of the Differential Calculus becomes necessary. Several new Sections and additional Examples have been introduced in the present Edition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
