Сторінка 25 - Every body continues in its state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line, except in so far as it may be compelled by impressed forces to change that state.
Сторінка 26 - Change of motion is proportional to the impressed force and takes place in the direction of the straight line in which the force acts.
Сторінка 5 - All these things considered [that is, the chemical facts he had just recited], it seems probable to me that God in the beginning formed matter in solid, massy, hard, impenetrable, movable particles, of such sizes and figures, and with such other properties and in such proportion to space as most conduced to the end for which He formed them...
Сторінка 5 - All these things being considered, it seems probable to me that God in the beginning formed matter in solid, massy, hard, impenetrable, moveable particles, of such sizes and figures, and with such other properties and in such proportion to space as most conduced to the end for which he formed them; and that these primitive particles being solids are incomparably harder than any porous bodies compounded of them, even so very hard as never to wear or break in pieces, no ordinary power being able to...
Сторінка 27 - To every action there is always an equal and contrary reaction ; or the mutual actions of any two bodies are always equal and oppositely directed.
Сторінка 44 - ... the sum of the moments of the forces tending to turn the body in...
Сторінка 61 - Radian is the angle subtended, at the centre of a circle, by an arc equal in length to the radius...
Сторінка 220 - Ans. 40'18. 9. A pump is worked directly from the ram of a water-pressure engine, the cylinder of which is 6 inches in diameter, that of the pump being 8J inches. The head of water in the supply-pipe which gives the pressure is 450 feet, and that in the delivery pipe is 150 feet: find the ratio of work done to total work expended.
Сторінка 50 - The centre of gravity of a body is that point in which the whole weight may be supposed to act^ or is the centre of parallel forces due to the weights of the respective parts of the body.
Сторінка 218 - Ans. 5,967,360 ft.-lbs. 6. A hole is punched through a plate of wrought-iron one-half inch in / thickness, and the pressure actuating the punch is estimated at 36 tons. Assuming that the resistance to the punch is uniform, find the number of foot-pounds of work done. Ans.
