" Between the power and velocity? that there is a loss of power in using a lever of the third class, and a gain of power in using one of the second class. In performing any work with a lever, the paths passed over by the points of application of the power... "

...a system is, the more slowly it will raise a weight. T. Certainly ; and this principle is commonly expressed by saying that what is gained in power is lost in time. This principle applies not only to pullies but to all mechanical combinations whatsoever. I shall...
