Synopsis

Sound, Light and Heat is a scientific book written by Mark Robinson Wright and first published in 1896. The book explores the nature and properties of sound, light and heat, and how they interact with matter. It covers a wide range of topics, including the wave nature of sound and light, the electromagnetic spectrum, the properties of different types of waves, and the laws of thermodynamics.The book is divided into three parts, each focusing on one of the three subjects. The first part, on sound, covers topics such as the propagation of sound waves, the speed of sound, and the resonance of sound waves. The second part, on light, covers topics such as the nature of light waves, the behavior of light in different media, and the properties of lenses and mirrors. The third part, on heat, covers topics such as the laws of thermodynamics, the properties of different types of heat engines, and the behavior of gases.Throughout the book, Wright provides clear and concise explanations of complex scientific concepts, making it accessible to readers with a basic understanding of physics. The book also includes numerous illustrations and diagrams to help readers visualize the concepts being discussed.Overall, Sound, Light and Heat is a comprehensive introduction to the physics of sound, light, and heat, and is a valuable resource for students and professionals in the fields of physics, engineering, and related sciences.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
