d the resultant velocity. Let AD represent the velocity v ofthe body in direction and magnitude,AX and AY the rectangular directionsin which the components are required,and 0 the angle which AD makes withAX. Completing the rectangle, ABwill represent the velocity a in AX,and AC the velocity b in… … and as required. tan. 6=- (41) 140 DYNAMICS. Cor. Hence velocities may be compounded and resolvedlike forces in statics. 237. Prop. Two bodies, A and B, describe the same path withthe velocities v and v, and at the commencement of their- motionare at a distance a from each other: to find the time t…
