Beschreibung:
Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. In physical science generally, and especially in engineering, knowledge is of use only so far as we are able to calculate numerical results, and ability to Obtain such results quickly and accurately is to be obtained only by extensive practice. Then, too, the ordinary mind arrives at a clear conception of general principles only by the way of concrete examples. To the aver age student mathematical formulae are vague and uninviting until he has himself made practical application of them.
