Publisher's Synopsis
Hydrostatical and Pneumatical Lectures is a book written by Roger Cotes in 1775. The book covers the topics of hydrostatics and pneumatics, which are the study of fluids at rest and in motion, respectively. It is a comprehensive guide to the principles of these two branches of physics, providing a detailed explanation of the laws of fluid mechanics, including the laws of buoyancy, pressure, and flow. The book also explores the properties of gases, such as their compressibility and expansion, and their behavior under different conditions. Cotes' work is considered to be a seminal contribution to the field of fluid mechanics and has been widely studied and referenced by subsequent scholars. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both students and professionals in the field of physics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
