Page 35 - ... of the first ; and the space of the 6th second eleven times that of the first. Hence, we arrive at the important conclusion that the spaces described in the succeeding seconds increase in the ratio of the odd numbers 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 1 1, 13, &c. &c. Fig. 9. 15. We shall now consider the spaces passed over, not in the seconds taken singly, but in any number of them taken together. If the space passed over in the first second be = 1 then the space in the 2nd second will be = 1+3 = 4 „ 3 „ =...

This general truth holds, not only with respect to the more permanent airs or gases, but also with respect to all steams or...
Page 57 - The effect of gravity is therefore almost wholly counterbalanced by the buoyant force of that fluid ; for the weight of a mass of water equal in bulk to the body itself, is the exact measure of this buoyant force. If this weight were precisely the same as that of the fish, the animal would be able to remain suspended in any part of the fluid without the necessity of employing any voluntary motion or exertion for that purpose ; but as the body of a fish...
