Strona 372 - Triangles on the same base, and between the same parallels, are equal.
Strona 371 - We have, then, that the sine of an angle is equal to the cosine of its complement, and conversely.
Strona 110 - A modern carriage is expected to stand steady on firing, so that in the first place it requires no running up, and in the second place it maintains the direction of the gun so that only a slight correction in elevation and direction is required after each round. The carriage is maintained in position by the spade, which sinks into the ground, and by the friction of the wheels upon the ground. If...
Strona 242 - Assuming that the length of the equivalent simple pendulum is the distance from the point of support to the centre of gravity of the mercuiy, find the height of mercury necessary to produce complete compensation against temperature changes.
Strona 6 - V is the velocity, g the acceleration due to gravity, and t the time in seconds. Now g is always the same, since the force of gravity does not vary, and is equal to 32 feet (strictly 32.2 feet) per second. Some confusion may arise in the...

In a well-designed carriage the amount of this pull is always less than that required to lift the wheels off the ground by rotating the carriage about the spade.
