Q,Pthese forces hardly contribute anything to theresultant intensity at P. Owing to the greater distance of the point P,the forces from given elements of the plane aresmaller at P than at P, but have to be resolvedthrough a smaller angle. The forces from theregions near Q are greatly diminished… … Fig. 29.
