Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book on the cause of the barometer's variation reflects an important moment in the history of physics. It explores the relationship between atmospheric pressure as measured by a barometer and the rise and fall of the tides. Written in the 18th century, it was among the first to s…uggest that the cause of the variation in the pressure of the atmosphere is due to the presence of a subtle matter, an early conceptualization of what would later be known as energy. The author argues that it is an ethereal medium which encompasses the Earth's globe and acts upon it, pushing and pulling in a manner that affects the weight of the atmosphere and thus the height of the mercury in a barometer. This discovery about the interaction between the atmosphere and the Earth had important implications for the understanding of tides, which was also examined in this book. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
