What reading level is The Applications of Physical Forces Microform book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
ARAGO in his admirable Notice sur le Tonnerre passes in review the various processes to which, from ancient times to that of Franklin, or even of ourselves, popular prejudice and the prejudice of men of science attributed the property of dissipating the clouds and escaping the lightning. A great number of these processes were only practices originating in superstitious credulity, and need not be mentioned. Some were founded on hypotheses not justified by experience, or as to which observation h...as hitherto furnished contradictory results. For example, it has been thought that great fires kindled in the open air took away from the clouds, at least in part, their fulminating properties. It was the opinion of Voltaire, based no doubt on the experimental fact that flames and hot gases are good conductors of electricity. But in the case of fires kindled in the open air could the gaseous columns rise to a sufficient height to reach the thunder clouds ? Anyhow, we have heard of places where the peasants have been in the habit of lighting, on the approach of storms, heaps of straw distributed here and there on the fields, and these places have not in fact suffered from lightning or hail.
