...be greater than that of 11 or 1200 feet in a second, then the absolute quantity of that resistance in these greater velocities will be near three times...with a velocity of 1700 feet in a second, instead of 144lb.4-, which I have assigned it in a former paper, will be now three times that quantity, or 433lb4.... | |

...greater than that of 1 1 00 or 1 20O feet in a second, then the absolute quantity of the resistance in these greater velocities will be near three times...should be by a comparison with the smaller velocities. — Hence then it appears, that if a projectile begins to move with a velocity less than that of Iioo... | |

...says, " be greater than 1100 feet or 1200 feet a second, then the absolute quantity of that resistance, in these greater velocities, will be near three times...should be by a comparison with the smaller velocities." Q. 68. — For what is this change in the amount of resistance remarkable ? A. — As occurring at... | |

...projectiles will vary as the square of the velocity, but that the "absolute quantity " of that resistance in these greater velocities will be near three "times as great, as it should be by comparison with the smaller " velocities." Tracts, I. 182. My experiments shew that the law of resistance... | |
