se the weight A, and let it rest upon the plat-form C\ then place the weight J\f, called a rider, on N. When thependulum D is set in motion the platform C falls, and A^and X com-bined, being heavier than M^ move downward. By repeated trials itis found that N and X move two spaces during the first… … lO 12 m X 6 gr. Here the force is doubled and the dis-tance nearly doubled, consequentlythe velocity and the momentumgenerated are nearly doubled. Hadthe masses moved in both casesbeen the same, the velocity andmomentum would have been exactlydoubled, but when the weight X isused, a force of 6…
