What reading level is An Elementary Treatise On Plane & Spherical Trigonometry, With Their Applications to Navigation, Surveying, Heights, And Distances, And Spherical Astronomy, And Particularly Adapted to Explaining the Construction of Bowditch's Navigator, And the Nautical book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Now if any signal, as the bursting of a rocket, is observed at two places ; the instant of this event, as noticed by the clocks of the two places, gives their difference of time.
Third Method. By a chronometer.
The difference of time of two places can, obviously, be determined by carrying a chronometer, whose rate is well y Google § 102.] LONGITUDE. 323 By eclipses, moon's transit.
ascertained, from one place to the other ; and if the chronom- eter did not change its rate during the passage, th...is method would be perfectly accurate.
Fourth Method, By an eclipse of one of Jupiter* s sateU lites. [B. p. 252.] The signal of the second method cannot be used, when the places are more than 20 or 30 miles apart ; and, when the distance is very great, a celestial signal must be used, such as the immersion or emersion of one of Jupiter's satellites. For this purpose, the instant when any such event would happen to an observer at Greenwich- is inserted in the Nautical Almanac ; and the observer at any other place has only to compare the time of his observation with that of the Almanac to obtain his longitude from Greenwich.
