and no more. The moment of the couple they can exerthas a certain limit. If the moment of WW becomesgreater than this limit, the bar breaks. The moment ofWW is WX bP. Evidently, the greatest load, W, whichthe bar can bear without breaking is inversely proportionalto the length bP, the horizontal… … FIG. 85. the same limit of length as before; for the limit of stretch-ing or compression of the substance is the same as in thesmaller bar. The average length of the arrows is thesame, at the breaking condition, in the thick bar as inthe thin one. The right-hand and the left-hand resultants are…
