Σελίδα 28 - NEWTON'S FIRST LAW OF MOTION.—Every body continues in its state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line, unless compelled by impressed forces to change that state.
Σελίδα 70 - LAWS OF MOTION. First Law.—Every body continues in its state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled by impressed forces to change that state.
Σελίδα 121 - If three forces acting on a particle be in equilibrium each force is proportional to the sine of the angle between the directions of the other two.
Σελίδα 147 - A pole 12 feet long weighing 25 Ibs. rests with one end against the foot of a wall, and from a point 2 feet from the other end a cord runs horizontally to a point in the wall 8 feet from the ground: find the tension of the cord and the pressure of the lower end of the pole.
Σελίδα 1 - yard is defined by Act of Parliament to be the distance between the centres of the transverse lines in the two gold plugs in the bronze bar deposited in the
Σελίδα 165 - Two uniform cylinders of the same material, one of them 8 inches long and 2 inches in diameter, the other 6 inches long and 3 inches in diameter are joined together end to end so that their axes are in the same straight line. Find the
Σελίδα 205 - A body weighing 54 Ibs. is just set in motion on a rough horizontal plane by a horizontal force of 9 Ibs. If the force be withdrawn and the plane tilted up, at what inclination of the plane to the horizon will the body begin to slide
Σελίδα 65 - A body whose mass is 8 Ibs. is known to be under the action of a •single constant force. It is observed to move from rest and in the first second of its motion to describe a distance of 5 feet: what is the magnitude of the constant force?
Σελίδα 164 - A bar each foot of which weighs 7 Ibs. rests upon a fulcrum distant 3 feet from one extremity : what must be its length that a weight of 71^ Ibs. suspended from that extremity may just be balanced by 20 Ibs. suspended from the other extremity
Σελίδα 191 - A wheel and axle is used to raise a bucket from a well. The radius of the wheel is 15 inches, and while it makes 7 revolutions the bucket, which weighs 30 Ibs., rises 5^
