Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book takes a fundamental look at the forces of attraction and repulsion and how they relate to magnetism. Following the work of Isaac Newton, this book explores key ideas around central forces, determining that the strength of magnetic force between two bodies is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. This book also examines the difference between magnetic and electrical forces, maintaining that unlike gravity, the action of the magnetic force is far stronger for the mass of matter than for its weight and decreases not as the square, but almost as the cube of the distance. Fully illustrated with diagrams that serve to delineate these differences and support the theorems presented, this book is an essential read for anyone who wants to learn more about the history of magnetism and the laws of force that govern it.
