egligible equation (11) re-duces to V=\e% (15) * See Appendix A. f See Appendix. 66 ANALYTICAL MECHANICS The curve, Fig. 43, dennedby equation (15) is called anexponential curve. It has aninteresting property, namely,its ordinate is doubled everytime a constant value P isadded to its abscissa.… … X + P (16) 2 = ea,or P = a loge 2. Length of Cable.—In order to find the length in termsof the span eliminate y between equations (7) and (11).This gives ~f * _*\ ea -e a (17) *+2.3 a2 + 2.3.4 5 a + (18) where the right member of equation (18) is obtained byexpanding the right-hand member of…
