xerted by the slide 0 could be found by the sameprinciple which we have used in previous cases, namely, the forcesare inversely proportional to the velocities. Let F be the force atD, and P the pressure at C. Assume any velocity of the point Dand represent this at some scale by the line Dd… … Fig. 52. from which, if one of the quantities F or P is known, the othermay be found. If the value of CH is found for various positions of AD, keep-incr Dd constant, it will be seen that the nearer AD comes tocoinciding with AC, the smaller CH becomes, and from equation(18) it will appear that the…
