butboth are solved by the sim-ple numerical process ofcomputing the positionwhich would have beenoccupied had gravitationnot acted, and the positionin case the initial velocityhad been zero. These are subtractedwhen the initial velocityis upwards, and addedwhen it is downwards. Given an upward… … Fig. 24, 34 THE OUTLINES OF PHYSICS initial velocity, would carry it downwards over a path s,such that 980 X 9 or «= ■ 4410. 2 Pg, the new position, is 4410 — 3000 = 1410 cm. belowthe starting point. Had the initial velocity been 1000 cm. downward thenew position would have been found at 4410 +…
