Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The book ''Utility Of Quaternions In Physics'' by Alexander McAulay was published in 1893 and explores the application of quaternions in the field of physics. The author provides a comprehensive overview of the mathematical principles of quaternions and demonstrates how they can be used to solve various problems in physics, such as those related to mechanics, electromagnetism, and optics.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a specific topic related to the application of quaternions in physics. The first few chapters provide an introduction to the basic concepts of quaternions, including their definition, properties, and operations. The author then goes on to explain how quaternions can be used to represent rotations in three-dimensional space, and how this can be applied to solve problems in mechanics.Later chapters in the book explore the use of quaternions in electromagnetism, including the representation of electric and magnetic fields, as well as the calculation of electromagnetic waves. The author also discusses the use of quaternions in optics, particularly in the study of polarization and the propagation of light.Throughout the book, the author provides numerous examples and exercises to help readers understand the concepts and apply them to real-world problems. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both students and professionals in the field of physics.Overall, ''Utility Of Quaternions In Physics'' is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the application of quaternions in physics, and provides a thorough and comprehensive overview of this important mathematical tool.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
