xis of Y is asymptotic on both sides to the cuireof energy. Then, if the line of momentum intersects the curve ofrigidity, the curve of energy has a maximum vertically under-neath the point of intersection neaier the origin, and a minimumiinderneath the point more remote. But if there are no… … Fig. 2. G,b.] TIDAL FRICTION. 513 convenient to print, and accordingly fig. 1 gives them as drawn Graphical with the free hand. As the zero of energy is quite arbitrary, the origin for the energy curve is displaced downwards, and this prevents the two curves from crossing one another in a confusing…
