...making an angle 30° with the horizon, take a portion of this line AP containing 5 units of length, ie as many units of length as there are units of force in the given force. Then we say AP represents the given force in every necessary particular, In magnitude,...

...45° with A G. Mark off a portion of the line AD, suppose AP, containing 5 units of length, that is, as many units of length as there are units of force in the given force. Then we may say that AP represents the given force in every particular : (1) In point...

...45° with AC. Mark off a portion of the line AD, suppose AP, containing 5 units of length, that is, as many units of length as there are units of force in the given force. Then we may say that AP represents the given force in every particular : (1) In point...

...every respect by a straight line drawn in the direction of the velocity which it tends to generate, and containing as many units of length as there are units of acceleration in the acceleration in question. Moreover, since an acceleration is measured by the number...

...by a straight line drawn from the point of application of the force, in the direction of the force, and containing as many units of length as there are units of force in the force. The end of the line is marked by an arrow-head to show in which direction the force acts....

...straight line should he drawn, from the point of application of the force, in the direction of the force, and containing as many units of length as there are units of force. 169. The principles here referred to are generally regarded as axiomatic when the terms in which they...

...may be represented geometrically by a straight line drawn in the direction of the velocity generated, and containing as many units of length as there are units of acceleration in the acceleration considered. Also, since an acceleration is measured by the actual...

...force may be represented in a purely graphical manner by a straight line in the direction of the force containing as many units of length as there are units of force in the force. The end of this line is marked with an arrow head to show in which direction the force acta....
