Electric Waves - Being an Adams Prize Essay in the University of Cambridge

Klappentext Originally published in 1902, this book aimed to obtain from Faraday's laws a consistent scheme for the representation of electrical phenomena. Zusammenfassung Originally published in 1902! this book was written with the object of obtaining from Faraday's laws a consistent scheme for the representation of electrical phenomena! and of applying the results to obtain the quantitative relations existing in certain cases of the propagation of electrical effects.
