Mathematical Treatise on the Motion of Projectiles (Classic Reprint): Founded Chiefly on the Result of Experiments Made With the Author's Chronograph - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Mathematical Treatise on the Motion of Projectiles is a classic study that blends experiment and theory to map how air resistance shapes projectile paths.
This edition foregrounds the author’s chronograph experiments and their use in calculating trajectories. It explains how early work laid the groundwork for understanding ballistics and why later revisions remain valuable for students of physics and military engineering.
- Clear, step-by-step description of how projectiles move through the air, with practical focus on trajectory calculation.
- Discussion of different shot shapes and how their heads influence results in experiments.
- Historical context showing how measurements and methods evolved in the 19th century.
- Connection between theory and real-world applications in artillery science.
Ideal for readers of the history of science, the physics of motion, and anyone curious about how careful measurement informs engineering.

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This profound treatise investigates the science behind the movement of projectiles through the air, beginning with foundational theory established by Galileo. The author's meticulous experimentation using his refined chronograph significantly advanced the understanding of the laws governing the resistance of the air on projectiles. This volume is valuable to ballistics experts and advanced students of physics alike for its authoritative treatment of the topic. The author's work influenced artillerists and scientists of his day and remains a critical reference point for those studying the subject today. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
