" The immediate cause of the phenomenon of heat, then, is motion ; and the laws of its communication are...same as the laws of the communication of motion." He considers this repulsive motion to be analogous to the orbital motions of planets : and that, consequently,... | |

Davy said in 1812 : " The immediate cause of the phenomenon of heat, then, is motion, and the laws of its - communication are...same as the laws of the communication of motion." This in modern language is equivalent to the statement that heat is kinetic energy ; not evidently... | |

...Again, in 1812, Davy thus states his theory : — i The immediate cause of the phenomenon of heat, then, is motion, and the laws of its communication are precisely the same as the laws of the communication of motion.Another way of stating the above is that heat is a form of energv. To make this point clear... | |

The immediate cause of the phenomena of heat then is motion, and the laws of its communication are precisely the same, as the laws of the communication of motion.
