 Rumford's experiments, the same piece of metal may be kept hot for any length of time ; so that if heat be pressed out, the quantity must be inexhaustible. When any body is cooled, it occupies a smaller volume than before : it is evident, therefore, that...  Journal - Page 4571833Full view - About this book
