Excerpt from The Mathematics of Applied Electricity: A Practical Mathematics
The text was developed primarily for the mathematics instructions of second year students in applied electricity courses as Pratt Institute. It is intended to follow a year of drill in the essential elements of algebra, plane geometry and plane trigonometry and also in the elementary principles of mechanics, heat and electricity.
The Introductory chapter has been written to meet the requirement of other young men who are occupied in various electrical industries and who find their progress retarded in electrical manner owing to their deficiency in their knowledge of elementary practical mathematics. The text will prove a very helpful aid as s short practical course in Trade, Industrial and Technical High Schools, and in Apprenticeship courses.
The purpose of Practical mathematics is to bring to the student's attention the underlying basic structure of the relation of the elements of electrical phenomena so that he may formulate them, interpret them physically and work with accuracy and facility in making numeric and graphic computation. When correlated with a practical, industrial or theoretic course in electricity, practical mathematics gives the student a better appreciation of his major subjects and assure him intellectual penetration into secrets of nature and utilization of her powers.
