Gravity Research: Determinations Of Gravity With Half-second Pendulums On The Pacific Coast, In Alaska And At Washington, D.c., And Hoboken, N.j

By Thomas C. Mendenhall

"Gravity Research: Determinations Of Gravity With Half-second Pendulums On The Pacific Coast, In Alaska And At Washington, D.c., And Hoboken, N.j" presents a detailed account of gravity measurements conducted by Thomas Corwin Mendenhall. This scientific study meticulously documents the processes and findings of gravity determinations using half-second pendulums across various geographical locations.

The research provides valuable insights into the techniques and challenges of measuring gravity in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, offering a historical perspective on the evolution of geophysical measurement technologies. With detailed data from the Pacific Coast, Alaska, Washington D.C., and Hoboken, New Jersey, this book is a crucial resource for historians of science, geophysicists, and anyone interested in the study of gravity.
