A29057	Tracts written by the Honourable Robert Boyle containing New experiments, touching the relation betwixt flame and air, and about explosions, an hydrostatical discourse occasion'd by some objections of Dr. Henry More against some explications of new experiments made by the author of these tracts : to which is annex't, An hydrostatical letter, dilucidating an experiment about a way of weighing water in water, new experiments, of the positive or relative levity of bodies under water, of the air's spring on bodies under water, about the differing pressure of heavy solids and fluids.; Selections. 1672	Boyle, Robert, 1627-1691.	1672 (1672)	Wing B4060; ESTC R10383	110,756	442

the_o hydrost_n paradox_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n why_o the_o divers_a body_n shall_v be_v more_o forcible_o depress_v than_o its_o depression_n be_v resist_v it_o be_v true_a that_o this_o body_n will_v sink_v but_o that_o be_v because_o it_o be_v not_o only_a as_o we_o late_o suppose_v it_o aequiponderant_a to_o a_o equal_a bulk_n of_o water_n but_o heavy_a than_o that_o but_o then_o since_o the_o water_n by_o its_o gravity_n and_o resistance_n take_v off_o as_o much_o of_o the_o weight_n of_o the_o divers_a body_n whilst_o that_o be_v immerse_v as_o a_o quantity_n of_o water_n equal_a to_o it_o will_v weigh_v in_o the_o air_n the_o subside_v of_o the_o humane_a body_n by_o its_o own_o weight_n ought_v to_o be_v but_o slow_a because_o that_o be_v not_o in_o

by_o swimmer_n that_o in_o the_o sea_n who_o water_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o saltness_n be_v specifical_o heavy_a than_o the_o common_a water_n they_o can_v hardly_o dive_v when_o they_o have_v a_o

of_o part_n of_o other_o animal_n in_o air_n and_o water_n i_o find_v the_o overplus_n of_o the_o weight_n of_o the_o animal_n substance_n above_o a_o equal_a bulk_n of_o water_n to_o be_v but_o very_o small_a and_o this_o may_v suffice_v to_o take_v off_o the_o wonder_n why_o though_o water_n be_v admit_v to_o gravitate_fw-la in_o water_n yet_o divers_a be_v not_o depress_v by_o that_o which_o lean_v upon_o they_o the_o endeavour_n they_o use_v to_o keep_v themselves_o from_o sink_v by_o strike_v the_o resist_a water_n with_o their_o arm_n and_o leg_n easy_o compensate_v their_o

to_o endure_v a_o very_a great_a pain_n to_o clear_v up_o or_o lessen_v this_o difficulty_n i_o have_v two_o thing_n to_o offer_v 1._o i_o confess_v that_o i_o be_o not_o entire_o satisfy_v about_o the_o matter_n of_o fact_n for_o i_o do_v not_o yet_o know_v whether_o it_o fare_v alike_o with_o the_o divers_a at_o all_o depth_n under_o water_n for_o according_a to_o the_o answer_v i_o obtain_v from_o person_n that_o have_v be_v one_o of_o they_o at_o the_o coral-fishing_a in_o the_o strait_n and_o the_o other_o at_o the_o pearl-fishing_a near_o manar_n i_o do_v not_o find_v that_o the_o divers_a be_v wont_a to_o descend_v to_o the_o great_a depth_n of_o the_o sea_n which_o if_o they_o do_v perhaps_o they_o will_v find_v a_o notable_a difference_n and_o in_o small_a or_o but_o moderate_a depth_n those_o that_o dive_v without_o engine_n usual_o make_v such_o haste_n or_o be_v so_o confound_v or_o have_v their_o mind_n so_o intent_n upon_o their_o work_n that_o they_o take_v not_o notice_n of_o such_o lesser_a alteration_n as_o else_o they_o may_v observe_v especial_o they_o be_v person_n void_a of_o curiosity_n and_o skill_n to_o make_v such_o observation_n which_o i_o the_o rather_o mention_v because_o have_v meet_v with_o a_o learned_a physician_n that_o live_v by_o the_o seaside_n in_o a_o hot_a climate_n delight_v himself_o much_o in_o dive_v and_o inquire_v of_o he_o whether_o he_o feel_v no_o compression_n when_o he_o pass_v out_o of_o the_o air_n into_o the_o water_n he_o answer_v i_o that_o when_o he_o dive_v nimble_o as_o other_o use_v to_o do_v he_o take_v not_o notice_n of_o it_o but_o when_o he_o let_v himself_o sink_v leisurely_o into_o the_o water_n he_o be_v sensible_a of_o a_o unusual_a pressure_n against_o his_o thorax_n which_o he_o several_a time_n observe_v a_o man_n that_o get_v his_o live_n by_o fetch_v up_o good_n out_o of_o wrack_a ship_n complain_v to_o i_o that_o if_o with_o his_o dive_v bell_n he_o go_v very_o deep_a into_o the_o sea_n and_o make_v some_o stay_n there_o he_o find_v himself_o much_o incommodate_v which_o though_o he_o impute_v to_o the_o coldness_n of_o the_o water_n yet_o by_o the_o symptom_n he_o relate_v i_o be_v incline_v to_o suspect_v that_o the_o pressure_n of_o it_o upon_o the_o genus_fw-la nervosum_fw-la may_v have_v a_o interest_n in_o the_o troublesome_a effect_n and_o i_o have_v be_v assure_v by_o a_o eminent_a virtuoso_fw-la of_o my_o acquaintance_n that_o he_o be_v late_o inform_v by_o a_o person_n who_o profession_n it_o be_v to_o fetch_v up_o thing_n from_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o sea_n by_o the_o help_n of_o a_o dive_v bell_n that_o several_a time_n when_o he_o descend_v to_o a_o great_a depth_n under_o the_o surface_n of_o the_o water_n he_o be_v so_o compress_v by_o it_o that_o the_o blood_n be_v squeeze_v out_o at_o his_o nose_n and_o eye_n which_o relation_n seem_v to_o favour_v our_o conjecture_n and_o will_v much_o more_o confirm_v it_o if_o i_o be_v sure_a that_o the_o effect_n be_v no_o way_n cause_v by_o some_o fermentation_n or_o other_o commotion_n in_o the_o blood_n itself_o occasion_v by_o the_o great_a density_n or_o other_o alteration_n of_o the_o air_n he_o breathe_v in_o and_o out_o or_o by_o some_o other_o operation_n of_o the_o ambient_fw-la medium_fw-la distinguishable_a from_o the_o compression_n of_o the_o water_n though_o perhaps_o conjoin_v with_o it_o and_o on_o this_o occasion_n i_o remember_v that_o question_v a_o engineer_n who_o have_v make_v use_n of_o a_o engine_n to_o go_v under_o water_n quite_o differ_v from_o the_o diving-bell_n he_o answer_v i_o that_o when_o he_o come_v to_o a_o considerable_a depth_n he_o find_v the_o pressure_n so_o great_a against_o the_o leathern_a case_n wherein_o he_o descend_v and_o by_o that_o mean_n against_o his_o belly_n and_o thorax_n that_o he_o fear_v it_o will_v have_v spoil_v he_o which_o force_v he_o to_o make_v haste_n up_o again_o but_o this_o observation_n to_o have_v much_o build_v upon_o it_o shall_v be_v further_o inquire_v into_o these_o thing_n and_o not_o these_o only_a make_v i_o wish_v that_o what_o be_v feel_v by_o those_o that_o dive_v to_o great_a depth_n and_o stay_v at_o they_o may_v be_v more_o heedful_o observe_v by_o intelligent_a man_n that_o be_v full_o inform_v what_o be_v true_a in_o point_n of_o fact_n we_o may_v the_o better_o and_o more_o cheerful_o indagate_v the_o reason_n in_o the_o mean_a while_n take_v thing_n as_o they_o be_v think_v to_o appear_v i_o shall_v propose_v two_o thing_n towards_o the_o solution_n of_o our_o difficulty_n namely_o the_o firmness_n of_o the_o structure_n of_o a_o humane_a body_n and_o the_o uniformity_n of_o the_o pressure_n make_v by_o fluid_n of_o the_o first_o of_o these_o i_o shall_v add_v but_o little_a to_o what_o have_v be_v already_o say_v where_o i_o speak_v of_o the_o resistance_n make_v by_o our_o body_n to_o the_o compression_n of_o the_o atmosphere_n only_o shall_v here_o take_v notice_n that_o whereas_o the_o membrane_n be_v very_o thin_a part_n and_o therefore_o seem_v unfit_a to_o make_v any_o great_a resistance_n we_o have_v try_v that_o if_o a_o piece_n of_o fine_a bladder_n be_v fasten_v to_o the_o orifice_n of_o a_o brass-pipe_n of_o about_o a_o inch_n in_o diameter_n we_o can_v not_o by_o draw_v the_o air_n from_o beneath_o it_o make_v the_o weight_n of_o the_o atmosphere_n break_v the_o bladder_n though_o the_o weight_n be_v perhaps_o equivalent_a to_o a_o erect_v cylinder_n of_o water_n of_o the_o wideness_n of_o the_o orifice_n and_o about_o 30._o foot_n high_a and_o we●e_v indeed_o such_o that_o divers_a man_n that_o lay_v their_o hand_n on_o the_o orifice_n when_o the_o air_n be_v pump_v out_o from_o beneath_o complain_v that_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o lift_v off_o their_o hand_n again_o till_o some_o of_o the_o air_n be_v readmit_v but_o the_o main_a thing_n i_o shall_v propose_v towards_o the_o solving_a of_o the_o difficulty_n we_o be_v consider_v be_v the_o uniformity_n wherewith_o fluid_a body_n press_v upon_o the_o solid_a one_o that_o be_v place_v in_o they_o and_o because_o i_o remember_v not_o to_o have_v meet_v with_o experiment_n purposely_o make_v to_o show_v how_o this_o sort_n of_o pressure_n be_v more_o easy_a to_o be_v resist_v than_o that_o of_o solid_n against_o solid_n i_o shall_v subjoin_v the_o follow_a trial_n exper._n i._n in_o the_o short_a cylinder_n

the_o doctrine_n found_v on_o those_o phaenomena_n that_o if_o the_o atmosphere_n can_v real_o exercise_v so_o great_a a_o pressure_n as_o we_o ascribe_v to_o it_o it_o will_v unavoidable_o oppress_v and_o crush_v all_o the_o body_n expose_v to_o it_o and_o consequent_o neither_o other_o animal_n nor_o man_n will_v be_v able_a to_o move_v under_o so_o great_a a_o load_n or_o subsist_v in_o spite_n of_o so_o forcible_a a_o compression_n this_o i_o ready_o grant_v to_o be_v a_o plausible_a objection_n but_o i_o suppose_v the_o force_n of_o it_o will_v be_v take_v away_o by_o the_o follow_a consideration_n put_v together_o and_o first_o the_o power_n of_o press_v that_o we_o ascribe_v to_o the_o air_n be_v not_o a_o thing_n deduce_v as_o too_o many_o other_o consequence_n in_o physic_n be_v from_o doubtful_a supposition_n or_o bare_a hypothesis_n but_o from_o real_a and_o sensible_a experiment_n and_o therefore_o since_o we_o have_v clear_a and_o positive_a proof_n of_o the_o pressure_n of_o the_o air_n though_o we_o can_v not_o explain_v how_o man_n and_o other_o animal_n be_v not_o destroy_v by_o it_o yet_o we_o ought_v rather_o to_o acknowledge_v our_o ignorance_n in_o a_o doubtful_a problem_n than_o deny_v what_o experience_n manifest_v to_o be_v a_o truth_n as_o be_v general_o practise_v in_o treat_v of_o the_o attractive_a and_o other_o power_n of_o the_o loadstone_n which_o be_v free_o acknowledge_v even_o by_o those_o that_o confess_v themselves_o unable_a to_o explicate_v they_o though_o if_o experience_n do_v not_o satisfy_v we_o of_o they_o they_o be_v liable_a to_o divers_a more_o considerable_a objection_n than_o any_o that_o be_v urge_v against_o the_o pressure_n of_o the_o air._n second_o but_o though_o it_o be_v not_o absolute_o necessary_a that_o we_o shall_v answer_v the_o above-recited_n objection_n otherwise_o than_o by_o thus_o declare_v that_o the_o spring_n of_o the_o air_n be_v not_o to_o be_v reject_v for_o it_o yet_o we_o will_v endeavour_v very_o much_o to_o lessen_v it_o if_o not_o quite_o remove_v the_o difficulty_n before_o we_o put_v a_o end_n to_o the_o discourse_n i_o consider_v then_o three_o that_o they_o that_o urge_v the_o late_o mention_v objection_n against_o the_o great_a pressure_n of_o the_o air_n seem_v not_o to_o be_v aware_a that_o we_o be_v conceive_v and_o bear_v in_o place_n expose_v to_o the_o pressure_n of_o the_o atmosphere_n and_o therefore_o how_o great_a soever_o that_o pressure_n appear_v to_o be_v it_o ought_v not_o to_o crush_v we_o now_o since_o when_o we_o be_v but_o embryo_v or_o newborn_a babe_n and_o consequent_o very_o much_o more_o weak_a and_o tender_a than_o we_o now_o be_v we_o be_v able_a to_o resist_v it_o and_o not_o only_o live_v but_o grow_v in_o all_o dimension_n in_o spite_n of_o it_o if_o there_o be_v any_o place_n about_o the_o moon_n or_o some_o other_o of_o the_o celestial_a globe_n that_o some_o learned_a man_n fancy_n to_o be_v inhabit_v that_o have_v no_o atmosphere_n or_o equivalent_a fluid_n about_o it_o and_o where_o yet_o man_n can_v be_v generate_v anew_o if_o one_o of_o those_o man_n shall_v be_v suppose_v to_o be_v transport_v thence_o and_o set_v down_o upon_o our_o earth_n there_o may_v be_v make_v a_o experiment_n fit_v for_o our_o controversy_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n i_o doubt_v that_o since_o nature_n be_v not_o observe_v to_o make_v thing_n superfluous_o strong_a such_o a_o humane_a body_n be_v not_o make_v to_o resist_v any_o weight_n or_o pressure_n of_o air_n will_v be_v of_o so_o tender_a and_o compressible_a a_o make_n that_o it_o will_v easy_o be_v crush_v inward_o by_o our_o atmospherical_a pressure_n and_o though_o we_o can_v give_v a_o instance_n of_o this_o kind_n yet_o we_o make_v trial_n somewhat_o analogous_a to_o it_o in_o our_o pneumatical_a engine_n for_o when_o we_o place_n water_n in_o our_o receiver_n and_o pump_v out_o the_o air_n that_o be_v above_o it_o there_o will_v be_v generate_v a_o multitude_n of_o bubble_n some_o of_o which_o when_o the_o air_n be_v careful_o withdraw_v will_v be_v of_o a_o strange_a and_o scarce_o credible_a bigness_n these_o bubble_n be_v generate_v where_o the_o air_n can_v press_v upon_o they_o these_o dimension_n be_v so_o natural_a to_o they_o that_o if_o the_o receiver_n be_v suppose_v not_o to_o leak_v nor_o other_o unfriendly_a accident_n to_o intervene_v they_o will_v for_o aught_o we_o know_v last_o a_o good_a while_n since_o i_o have_v elsewhere_o show_v that_o the_o spring_n of_o high_o dilate_a air_n do_v continue_v for_o many_o month_n and_o a_o bladder_n will_v for_o no_o less_o time_n continue_v blow_v and_o fill_v in_o our_o vacuum_n by_o a_o little_a air_n that_o be_v leave_v in_o it_o when_o the_o ambient_fw-la air_n begin_v to_o be_v withdraw_v from_o it_o and_o yet_o the_o large_a bubble_n above_o mention_v when_o once_o the_o outward_a air_n be_v suffer_v to_o come_v in_o upon_o they_o be_v thereby_o so_o violent_o compress_v that_o in_o a_o trice_n they_o shrink_v into_o dimension_n too_o small_a to_o keep_v they_o so_o much_o as_o visible_a and_o if_o i_o can_v have_v succeed_v in_o my_o attempt_n of_o produce_v such_o live_a body_n as_o i_o endeavour_v but_o do_v not_o expect_v in_o our_o vacuum_n i_o suppose_v the_o success_n will_v have_v confirm_v what_o i_o have_v be_v say_v four_o but_o you_o will_v tell_v i_o that_o so_o great_a a_o weight_n and_o pressure_n as_o i_o assign_v the_o atmosphere_n must_v needs_o make_v a_o man_n feel_v pain_n and_z if_o not_o otherwise_o dislocate_v some_o of_o the_o part_n must_v at_o least_o press_v the_o whole_a body_n inward_a but_o first_o be_v accustom_a to_o the_o pressure_n from_o our_o very_a birth_n and_o even_o before_o it_o so_o early_o and_o long_o a_o accustomance_n hinder_v we_o from_o take_v notice_n of_o it_o those_o pressure_n only_o be_v sensible_a to_o we_o that_o be_v make_v so_o by_o some_o additional_a cause_n which_o by_o make_v a_o new_a impression_n excite_v we_o to_o take_v notice_n of_o it_o so_o we_o be_v not_o sensible_a of_o the_o weight_n of_o the_o clothes_n we_o be_v accustom_a to_o wear_v and_o so_o a_o healthy_a man_n be_v not_o sensible_a of_o the_o heat_n in_o his_o heart_n because_o it_o be_v constant_a there_o and_o the_o sentient_a part_n of_o the_o heart_n have_v be_v still_o use_v to_o it_o whereas_o that_o heat_n oftentime_o have_v be_v very_o considerable_a and_o when_o in_o live_a dissection_n a_o man_n put_v his_o finger_n into_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o animal_n which_o probable_o have_v a_o faint_a or_o at_o least_o not_o strong_a degree_n of_o heat_n than_o a_o humane_a heart_n he_o will_v feel_v in_o his_o finger_n accustom_a to_o the_o air_n a_o manifest_a degree_n of_o heat_n if_o they_o be_v but_o in_o their_o usual_a temper_n 2._o i_o have_v elsewhere_o prove_v by_o experiment_n that_o a_o cubick_a inch_n of_o air_n for_o instance_n have_v as_o strong_a a_o spring_n as_o suffice_v to_o enable_v it_o to_o resist_v the_o weight_n of_o the_o whole_a atmosphere_n as_o far_o as_o it_o be_v expose_v thereunto_o for_o else_o it_o will_v be_v more_o compress_v than_o de_fw-fr facto_fw-la it_o be_v and_o 3._o i_o have_v also_o show_v that_o a_o very_a little_a portion_n of_o air_n though_o it_o will_v much_o soon_o loose_v its_o spring_n by_o expansion_n than_o a_o great_a yet_o it_o will_v resist_v further_a compression_n as_o much_o as_o a_o great_a and_o 4._o i_o have_v also_o show_v that_o in_o the_o pore_n of_o the_o
