etc. 1 Simple harmonic motion may be defined as tlie projection upon a fixed line of uniform motion in a circle (Elements of Physics, Vol. I, p. 46). The speed of a in terms of 6 may be expressed by means of the equation Vt = Vi sm o, where ». is the speed of a, v,, the linear speed of 6, and a is… … 54 THE OUTLINES OF PHYSICS 47. The Curve of Sines. — If we imagine the paper inFig. 37 moved uniformly along under the circle and atright angles to the diameter.c d, andthe point a capable of tracing itscourse upon the paper, the result willbe a curve characteristic of simpleharmonic motion.
