By Silvanus Phillips Thompson

Book Overview

The Electromagnet and Electromagnetic Mechanism is a book written by Silvanus Phillips Thompson in 1891. The book is a comprehensive study of electromagnetism and electromagnetic mechanisms, and it covers the principles and applications of these phenomena in great detail.The book is divided into two parts. The first part deals with the theory of electromagnetism, including the laws of electric and magnetic fields, the behavior of charged particles in electric and magnetic fields, and the properties of electromagnetic waves. The second part of the book focuses on the practical applications of electromagnetism, including the construction and operation of electromagnets, electric motors, generators, and transformers.Throughout the book, Thompson provides numerous examples and illustrations to help readers understand the concepts and principles of electromagnetism. He also includes a number of experiments that readers can perform to further explore the subject matter.Overall, The Electromagnet and Electromagnetic Mechanism is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the science of electromagnetism or the practical applications of this technology. It is widely regarded as a classic text in the field, and it continues to be studied and referenced by scientists and engineers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
