The New Gresham Encyclopedia. Vol. 1 Part 2 Amiel to Atrauli We see the converse mode of dealing with Nature in Torricelli. The Eruption of Vesuvius in 1872 Galileo also inspired the barometer, through his speculations on the vacuum, which, in 1643, led his disciple Torricelli to experiments proving the limitation to nature's horror of a vacuum. The Introduction of Self-Registering Meteorological Instruments It was only the fact that Torricelli and Cavalcanti kept their grave eyes fixed upon him that restrained a wild outburst of his anger. The Serapion Brethren. Vol. II He was now allowed an amanuensis, and the help of his pupils Torricelli, Castelli, and Viviani, all devotedly attached to him, and Torricelli very famous after him. Pioneers of Science But he had followed the physical investigations of the seventeenth century, and was well acquainted with Torricelli's demonstration of the weight of the atmosphere. The War in the Air; Vol. 1 The Part played in the Great War by the Royal Air Force Torricelli did not know the rationale of his tube, nor Otto Gürike that of his air-pump; yet no one thinks of denying them the merit of their inventions on that account. Lives of the Engineers The Locomotive. George and Robert Stephenson Torricelli's views rapidly gained ground, notwithstanding the objections of certain philosophers. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 3, Part 1, Slice 3 "Banks" to "Bassoon" Torricelli's and Cavalcanti's grave looks of disapproval, however, constrained him to silence and quietness. The Serapion Brethren. Vol. II Galileo and his pupil Torricelli had both been busy with the subject. Pascal During the last three years of his life, his eminent pupil Viviani formed one of his family; and in October 1641, the celebrated Torricelli, another of his pupils, was admitted to the same distinction. The Martyrs of Science, or, The lives of Galileo, Tycho Brahe, and Kepler He approached on all sides, as it were, to the discovery of its weight, and had very near attained it, but some time after Torricelli seized upon this truth. The Best of the World's Classics, Restricted to Prose, Vol. VII (of X)—Continental Europe I Torricelli reasoned thus: If a column of water thirty-two feet high holds the pressure of the atmosphere in equilibrium, a shorter column of a heavier liquid ought to do the same. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 Torricelli, the pupil of Galileo, invented the barometer. How Britannia Came to Rule the Waves Updated to 1900 To Pascal, however, remains the glory of carrying successfully to a conclusion the suggestion of Torricelli, and of verifying the results which he had indicated. Pascal Torricelli is partially enclosed on the S. by a circular arrangement of ridges. The Moon A Full Description and Map of its Principal Physical Features Observations similar to these were made by Torricelli as early as the sixteenth century. General Science Thus we see that Newton, like Torricelli, first pondered his facts, illuminated them with persistent thought, and finally divined the character of the force of gravitation. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 Torricelli's discovery that the air had weight was received with incredulity. Recreations in Astronomy With Directions for Practical Experiments and Telescopic Work No one was more anxious than Pascal himself p. 37that Torricelli should be acknowledged as the real discoverer of the principle which it was left to him to establish by the test of experiment. Pascal But the truth is that this matter not only passes through solids, but does so even with great facility; of which the experiment of Torricelli, above cited, is already a proof. Treatise on Light Torricelli, with his closed bent tube, had just shown the world how heavily the air lies above us. The Dominion of the Air; the story of aerial navigation One can imagine the feeling with which Torricelli removed his thumb, Fragments of science, V. 1-2 Torricelli argued that, as air is a fluid, if it had weight it could be made to balance another fluid of known weight. The Mastery of the Air It was painful to him, therefore, to have this share denied, and even open accusations made against him that he had appropriated, without acknowledgment, the results of Torricelli’s researches. Pascal Next should be mentioned the line of profound observers, from Galileo and Torricelli to Kelvin. History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom The pressure of the atmosphere was discovered by Torricelli, a disciple of Galileo, who had previously found that the air had weight. The Botanic Garden A Poem in Two Parts. Part 1: the Economy of Vegetation The celebrated Pascal followed Torricelli with another deduction. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 Torricelli carried on a ministry amongst the Italians, Spaniards, Greeks, and other natives of southern Europe resident in Boston. Unitarianism in America Fermat, Roberval, and Torricelli had all been occupied with the subject, and made some definite progress in ascertaining its properties. Pascal When Torricelli balanced a column of mercury against a column of water and each of these against a column of air, he ended the theologic phrase that "nature abhors a vacuum." History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom Torricelli, by his experiments, demonstrated the fact and invented the mercurial barometer, long known as the "Torricellian Tube." Steam, Steel and Electricity It was thus with Torricelli; it was thus with Newton; it is thus pre-eminently with the scientific man of to-day. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 In the seventeenth century the Tuscan and Papal Governments consulted Galileo, Torricelli, Castelli, Cassini, Viviani, and other distinguished philosophers and engineers, on the possibility of reclaiming the valley by a regular artificial drainage. The Earth as Modified by Human Action He was himself, it need hardly be said, dissatisfied with such a reply, and accordingly he invited his pupil, Torricelli, to investigate the subject. Pascal It was the Dutch navigator Tasman who discovered this group in 1643, the same year the Italian physicist Torricelli invented the barometer and King Louis XIV ascended the French throne. Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea He approached, on all sides as it were, to the discovery of its weight, and had very near attained it, but some time after Torricelli seized upon this truth. Letters on England It is evident, then, that Torricelli's column of mercury should rise and fall just in proportion to the lightness or heaviness of the air. A History of Science — Volume 2 This method was improved by Torricelli and others. History of the Conflict Between Religion and Science The fame of Torricelli’s experiments had reached Paris as early as 1644, before their formal publication. Pascal This led to a long debate, during which Torricelli was seized with a fever, from the effects of which he died, in Florence, October 25, 1647. A History of Science — Volume 2 There is reason to believe, however, that while Roberval's discovery was made before Torricelli's, the latter reached his conclusions independently. A History of Science — Volume 2 The pressure exerted by the atmosphere was but little understood at that time, but Torricelli's discovery aided materially in solving the mystery. A History of Science — Volume 2 It numbered many great men, such as Torricelli and Castelli, among its members. History of the Conflict Between Religion and Science Torricelli's discovery was made in 1643, less than two years after the death of his master. A History of Science — Volume 2 Torricelli was able to demonstrate that the height at which the water stood depended upon nothing but its weight as compared with the weight of air. A History of Science — Volume 2 Reasoning in this way, Torricelli proceeded to prove that his theory was correct. A History of Science — Volume 2 In hydraulics, also, Torricelli seems to have taken one of the first steps. A History of Science — Volume 2 The discoveries of Galileo, Pascal, and Torricelli incited him to solve the problem of the creation of a vacuum—a desideratum since before the days of Aristotle. A History of Science — Volume 2 |
