Motion: Its Origin and Conservation (1898)

Motion: Its Origin and Conservation is a book written by Walter McDonald in 1898. The book explores the fundamental principles of motion and conservation of energy. The author begins by discussing the concept of motion and its various forms, such as linear and circular motion. He further delves into the laws of motion and how they apply to different scenarios. McDonald then moves on to the topic of energy conservation, explaining how energy is neither created nor destroyed but rather transformed from one form to another. He discusses the different types of energy, such as kinetic and potential energy, and how they are related to motion. The book also covers various topics related to motion and energy conservation, such as momentum, work, and power. The author provides numerous examples and illustrations to explain these concepts in a clear and concise manner. Overall, Motion: Its Origin and Conservation is a comprehensive guide to understanding the fundamental principles of motion and energy conservation. It is a valuable resource for students and professionals in the fields of physics, engineering, and related disciplines.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
