Σελίδα 219 - The law is, that all bodies tend to approach one another with an intensity which is directly as the masses, and inversely as the squares of the distances. It is absolutely indifferent to the astronomer how this result...
Σελίδα 324 - An Elementary Treatise on Algebra, Theoretical and Practical; with attempts to simplify some of the more difficult parts of the Science, particularly the Demonstration of the Binomial Theorem in its most general form ; the Summation of Infinite Series ; the Solution of Equations of the Higher Order, &c., for the use of Students.
Σελίδα 324 - ELEMENTS OF THE DIFFERENTIAL CALCULUS ; comprehending the General Theory of Curve Surfaces, and of Curves of Double Curvature. Revised and corrected by MICHAEL O'SHANNESSY, AM 1 vol.
Σελίδα 203 - COR. The time t being independent of the abscissa h, will be the same, from whatever point in the curve the body begins to descend ; in this respect differing from the motion in circular arcs. On account of this remarkable property the cycloid is called tautochronal. 359. SCHOL. The property of tautochronism which attaches to the cycloid was supposed to give peculiar advantages to a pendulum made to oscillate in this curve. The...

Σελίδα 324 - If works like the present be introduced generally into our schools and colleges, the continent will not long boast of its immense superiority over the country of Newton, in every branch of modern analytical science.
Σελίδα 207 - Angular velocity (radians, or degrees, per second) varies inversely as the square of the distance of the body from the centre of force.
Σελίδα 69 - AY is so that the distance of the centre of gravity from the centre of the circle is a fourth, proportional to the arc, the radius, and the chord of the arc.
