Not illustrated. 1846 Excerpt: ...result from one single property The term hydrodynamics, which should include these two subdivisions of physical science, has been so perversely appropriated to the science of fluids in motion exclusively, that the author is compelled reluctantly to dismiss it altogether, in a school-book. of liquids; namely; the free motion of their particles among themselves, in consequence of their peculiar arrangement and mode of cohesion. The laws which govern motion and rest are precisely the same in all respects, whatever may be the state or condition of the body acted upon by dynamic force. Hence, if we were perfectly acquainted with the laws of attraction and the forms of atoms and molecules, we should be able to foretell all the dynamic phenomena that fluids can display, from our knowledge of the effects of physical force upon solids, even without resorting to special experiments; for a liquid body is but a collection of relatively moveable little bodies (molecules), and a solid is a collection of relatively fixed, though otherwise similar bodies. 458. Pneumatics is the name of that subdivision of dynamics which treats of the peculiar phenomena produced by physical power or force, as witnessed in airs or gases, whether they be relatively in motion or at rest. This term may therefore be defined--the statics and mechanics of airs or gases. The terms aero-dynamics and aerostatics are occasionally used to express the dynamics and statics of air, gas, or aeriform fluids. 459. All the peculiarities observed in the action of dynamic forces upon gases, result from two properties of matter in the gaseous state: 1st, the mobility of the particles among themselves, in which they resemble liquids; and, 2d, the great mutual repulsion of their particles, by means of which they f...
