Laboratory Manual In Physics (1912)

By Joseph Alliene Wauchope

Book Overview

The Laboratory Manual in Physics, written by Joseph Alliene Wauchope and first published in 1912, is a comprehensive guide to conducting experiments in physics. The book is designed for use in both high school and college-level physics courses and covers a wide range of topics, including mechanics, heat, electricity, magnetism, optics, and atomic physics.The manual is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a different area of physics. Each section begins with an introduction that provides an overview of the topic and explains the fundamental principles involved. The manual then provides step-by-step instructions for conducting a series of experiments related to the topic, along with detailed explanations of the results that are expected.The experiments in the manual are designed to be conducted using basic laboratory equipment, such as balances, thermometers, voltmeters, and oscilloscopes. The manual also includes detailed instructions for constructing some of the more specialized equipment that may be required for certain experiments.Throughout the manual, Wauchope emphasizes the importance of careful observation and accurate measurement in conducting experiments. He also provides guidance on how to record and analyze experimental data, and how to draw conclusions based on the results.Overall, the Laboratory Manual in Physics is a valuable resource for students and teachers of physics, providing a comprehensive guide to conducting experiments and developing a deeper understanding of the fundamental principles of physics. Despite its age, the manual remains relevant and useful today, providing a solid foundation for anyone interested in the study of physics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
