""Elements of Mechanical Philosophy"" is a comprehensive textbook written by William Barton Rogers in 1852 for junior students at the University of Virginia. The book covers a wide range of topics related to classical mechanics, including the laws of motion, force, work, energy, momentum, and collisions. It also delves into the principles of statics, dynamics, and hydrostatics, as well as the mechanics of solids, fluids, and gases. Throughout the book, Rogers provides clear explanations, examples, and exercises to help students understand the concepts and apply them to real-world problems. The book is written in a straightforward style and assumes no prior knowledge of mechanics, making it an ideal resource for students and anyone interested in learning the basics of mechanical philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
