Abstract

A DISTINCTIVE feature of this text-book of practical physics is the inclusion of a considerable number of experiments which may be performed by the student at home, using very simple apparatus. In the second edition a supplement has been added containing a number of additional experiments. These are concerned with Fletcher's trolley apparatus, coefficients of friction, Mariotte's bottle, surface tension, expansion of solids, thermal conductivity, photometers, and critical angles. The importance of avoiding eyestrain has not been sufficiently considered in the mathematical tables at the end of the Volume.
