Page 16 - If a particle moves in consequence of the continued action upon it of a constant force, show what is the character of the resulting motion, and in what manner it depends on the magnitude of the force and the mass of the particle.
Page 31 - any cause which tends to change a body's state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line.
Page 37 - If now a mixture of two volumes of hydrogen and one volume of oxygen is introduced into...
Page 9 - Show how to resolve a giren force into two components, one of which has a given magnitude and acts parallel to a given straight line. As a special case, resolve a force of magnitude 12, acting horizontally from left to right, into two components, one of which is a force of magnitude 25 acting vertically upwards.— Jan.
Page 8 - If several forces which do not balance act in the same plane upon different points of a solid body one point of which is fixed, what condition must be fulfilled in order that the body may be in equilibrium? Show that this condition cannot be fulfilled unless the fixed point is in...
Page 35 - Two flames, each having the same size and temperature as the one first mentioned, are not able to render the water and escaping steam hotter than the single flame was able to render them. Why not ? How much steam at 100° C. is required to raise the temperature of 54 ounces of water from 0° C. to 100° C., the latent heat of steam being taken = 540° ? 9. One pound of boiling water at 100° C.
Page 19 - Through what vertical distance must a heavy body fall from rest in order to acquire a velocity of 161 feet per second ? If it continue falling for another second after having acquired the above velocity, through what distance will it fall in that time?
Page 13 - Ibs. is placed on a smooth plane, which is inclined at 30° to the horizon ; find the two directions in which a force equal to the body may act to produce equilibrium.
Page 30 - A ray passing through the optical centre. (c) A ray parallel to the principal axis. Show how to find, approximately, by tracing the paths of two rays from each extremity of the object, the position and size of the image formed by a convex lens. . . 9. If a candle is placed at a distance of 6 feet from a wall, and a distinct image of the flame is produced upon the wall by a lens held at one foot from the candle, show that a distinct image will also be produced, when the lens is 5 feet from the candle...
Page 9 - When a horse is employed to tow a barge along a canal the tow-rope is usually of considerable length; give a definite reason for using a long rope instead of a short one. Show whether the same considerations hold good in relation to the length of the rope when a steam-tug...
