...and precisely the real nature of heat, saying: " The immediate cause of the phenomenon of heat, then, is motion, and the laws of its communication are precisely...same as the laws of the communication of motion." The basis of this opinion was the same that had previously been noted by Rum ford. So much having been... | |

...friction were also made about the same time, but it was not until 1812 that he came to the conclusion that ' the immediate cause of the phenomenon of heat is motion, and the laws of ite communication are precisely the same as the laws of the communication of motion. ' From data given... | |

...or in the potential form? Davy said in 1812 : " The immediate cause of the phenomenon of heat, then, is motion, and the laws of its - communication are...same as the laws of the communication of motion." This in modern language is equivalent to the statement that heat is kinetic energy ; not evidently... | |

...different quantities of repulsion and attraction." " The immediate cause of the phenomenon of heat, then, is motion ; and the laws of its communication are...same as the laws of the communication of motion." He considers this repulsive motion to be analogous to the orbital motions of planets : and that, consequently,... | |

...Again, in 1812, Davy thus states his theory : — i The immediate cause of the phenomenon of heat, then, is motion, and the laws of its communication are precisely the same as the laws of the communication of motion.Another way of stating the above is that heat is a form of energv. To make this point clear... | |

Both Rumford and Davy might, however, have been successfully Position met by any calorist who was willing... | |

...precisely the real nature of heat, saying : " The immediate cause of the phenomenon of heat, then, is motion, and the laws of its communication are precisely...same as the .laws of the communication of motion." Heat and mechanical force therefore are identical and convertible. Independently of the medium through... | |

...in the dictum : ' "The immediate cause of the phenomena of heat, then, as Lavoisier long ago stated, is motion, and the laws of its communication are precisely...same as the laws of the communication of motion." These essays of Rumford and Davy failed to produce, with a few rare exceptions, any perceptible effect... | |
