Excerpt from Laboratory Physics a Students Manual for Colleges, and Scientific SchoolsThis Manual is designed to be a student's handbook for the performance of experimental problems in physics. The selection of problems and their treatment is the result of twelve years of teaching experience, and the descriptions of most of the exercises have been used in typewritten form for.the past six years. The grade of work is that of the course in general physics in colleges and technical schools. It is presumed that the student has had a course in preparatory laboratory physics, and that these exer cises will be accompanied, or preceded, by a full course of lec tures and recitations in general physics, including instruction in the principles and manipulations of the various experimental operations.One hundred and twen ty-eight exercises are described. Some of these, however, such as reading the barometer, determining the heat equivalent of a calorimeter, etc., are usually performed in connection with other problems. There is a break in the serial numbers of the exercises at the end of each part, to permit the assignment of numbers to additional exercises in their proper groups.The definite problems given under each heading have been formulated with much care, to cover as wide a range of the subject as is possible. They are based upon the work of the sophomore class in the Case School of Applied Science, and each one represents what may be expected of one or two students in a laboratory exercise of three hours' duration. Shorter exercises, or exercises covered by particular articles.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
