Not illustrated. 1860 Excerpt: ... a - b + c b--c Prove cos-cos o = cos---cos 2 2 2 b. Mixed mathematics. 1. A point placed at the centre of an equilateral triangle is urged towards the angles by forces equal to 1, 2, and 3 lbs. respectively: determine the direction and magnitude of the resultant. 2. Find the centre of gravity of the frustum of a pyramid cut off by a plane parallel to its base. 3. Show that the principle of virtual velocities holds good for the wedge. 4. In what time would a body falling in vacuo by the action of gravity acquire a velocity of 1000 feet in a second? 5. (a) Two inelastic balls moving in the same direction, but with different velocities, come into collision: determine the motion after impact. (6) Discuss the question on the supposition that the balls are elastic. 6. A projectile being discharged in vacuo with a given velocity describes a certain parabola: prove that if the elevation be very slightly altered, the new parabola will intersect the former one at the remote extremity of the focal chord passing through the point of projection. 7. Prove that if the force varies inversely as the square of the distance, the attraction of a spherical shell on a particle within it will keep it in equilibrium. 8. The force varying inversely as the square of the distance, determine the direction in which a particle is attracted by a finite portion of a very thin straight rod. 9. A hemispherical vessel standing upon its base is filled with a fluid: prove that the pressures perpendicular to the plane and curved surfaces are equal. 10. Show that when a body is immersed in a heavy fluid, the resultant of the horizontal pressures at all points of the surface of the body is zero. 11. Explain the principle of Bramah's press. 12. Describe the construction of Galileo's telescop...
