Hence , LA when P moves through any space in the direction of the cord , the
pulley B B moves in the same direction , through half the space . B ( 2 ) If there be
two cords and two pulleys , the ends AA ' being fixed , and the other end of AB ...

Hence if a point have , at the same time , velocities represented by OA , AC , and
Co , the sides of a triangle taken in the same order , it is at rest . Hence the
resultant of velocities represented by the sides of any closed polygon whatever ...

Hence if v be the change in the velocity during the interval t , v = at , or a = t 33.
Acceleration is variable when the point's velocity does not receive equal
increments in successive equal periods of time . It is then measured by the
increment of ...

Hence the velocity of P is to that of A as OP to CA , i.e. as V to R ; and is therefore
equal to V 12 R R ' and this ( $ 35 ) is the amount of the acceleration in the
circular path ABD . 37. The whole acceleration in any direction is the sum of the ...

For , since the velocity increases uniformly , its value at any time before the
middle of the interval is as much less than this mean as its value at the same time
after the middle of the interval is greater than the mean : and hence its value at
the ...
