To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
. (5) EXAMPLES. 1. A smooth inclined plane is 100 feet long; what must be its inclination that the time of descent of a parti cledown it shall be 5 seconds? [292. ] MOTION OF A PARTICLE. 209 2. A body is projected up a smooth plane whose slope (that is its inclination with the horizontal) is 45 degrees, with a velocity of 50 feet per second ; find its posi- tion at the end of 3 seconds ; five seconds ; ten seconds. 3. A body starts from rest at the top of an inclined plane whose length is 100 f...eet, and height 20 feet ; with what velocity must a body be projected up the plane from its foot in order to meet the former one at the middle of the plane ? 4. Find the line of quickest descent from a point with- out a circle to the circumference of the circle. 5. A train of cars starts from rest on an inclined plane and runs down it by the force of gravity only ; the grade being 40 feet to the mile and the coefficient of friction -j-J-g-, what will be its velocity at the end of one mile ? d A car starts from the upper end of an inclined plane whose length is one-half of a mile, and grade 50 feet per mile, coefficient of friction ^J^, and runs down the plane ; how far will it go on a succeeding hori- zoutal plane before being brought to rest, the coeffi- cient of friction remaining constant ?
