ed mechanically by experimenting with alight cord, Fig. 333, to which are hung other heavy cords,or bars of uniform weight per unit length, and at equalhorizontal distances apart when in equilibrium. By varyingthe lengths of the bars, and their points of attachment, wemay finally find the curve… … Fig. 334 necting joints, each piece exerting a thrust T against theadjacent joint. The joint A, (the pin of the hinge), im-agined separated from the contiguous rods and hence free,is held in equilibrium by the vertical force P (a load) andthe two thrusts T and T, making angles = 0 and Q withthe…
