locities arenot in the same straight line, then the resultant velocitywill lie between them, and will be determined in direc-tion and magnitude by the Parallelogram of Velocities. 33. Parallelogram of Velocities. This principle isstated as follows : If the component velocities be repre-sented in… … from A toward B (Fig. 8) with a velocity u, representedby the line AB; also at the same instant from A to Dwith a velocity v, represented by AD, then the body willactually move in the direction A C with a constant velo-city represented by AC. (See Arts. 68, b, and 128.) For the body, if it had only…
