Book Overview

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.
