Book Description

Excerpt from An Elementary Text-Book of Physics This volume, which is issued as Part II. of an Elementary Text-Book of Physics, deals with the elements of Sound. An effort has been made to give, as simply and as clearly as possible, a fairly complete exposition of the fundamental facts and principles of the subject. The experiments described in the text are intended to illustrate and develop the theory, but in most cases the descriptions are given with sufficient experimental detail to be of service in the laboratory. This Part is complete in itself, but a knowledge of some of the elementary principles of Dynamics dealt with in Part I. is necessarily assumed.
