Newton's principia, first book sections I, II, III, with notes and illustrations and a collection of problems, principally intended as examples of Newton's methods (1900)
n,,P the position of the particle at any time. Let CJ5, perpendicular to (L4, be the distance in which aparticle would be reduced to rest, If projected from C with thevelocity of projection; so that If V be the velocity of projec-tion, and ^,GP be the accelerating effect of the force at Py *… … ^-^ 6 M yi Keferring to (4) supra, it will be seen that two particles start-ing respectively one from rest at A and the other with thevelocity of projection at (7, under the action of the same force,would arrive simultaneously at If and n^ since the time in bothcases is proportional to the angle P…
