Excerpt from book: will be made up in velocity 5 confequently their Moments will be equal by . the laft, and therefore by . 7. they wvll cxaftly balance each other; or be in MytiKbrio. IX. But if the Power bears a greater proportion to the Weight, than the velocity of the Weight to that of the Power 5 it will then have a greater Momentum than the other, and confequently may communicate fuch a Momentum to it as it will receive, without lofing; all its own; the remainder therefore, if fuffi- cient to overcome the friftion of the Machine, will put it into motion. We proceed now to- treat of each Mechanical Power in its order, and I. Of the Lever. X. The Lever is a right line (or bar whofc weight in Theory is not considered) moveable on a Center, which is called its Fulcrum, or fixed Point. XI. The /Equilibrium in this Machine isr when the dlftance of the Power from the fix- fd point is to that of the Weight from the fame, as the quantity of matter in the Weight to that in the Power. For fuppofing the Lever placed on its Fulcrum with the Weight to be raifed at one end, and the Power applied to the other; "tis evident the farther the Power is placed from the Fulcrum or center of motion, the larger will be its fweep when the Machine is, put in motion j that is, it will move over fo muchmuch more Tpace in the fame time than the Weight to be raifed: now if it is placed juft fo much farther from the Fulcrum, as it is lefs than the Weight, it will move juft fo much fafter 5 their Moments therefore will be c- qual (. 7.) and confequently the Power and Weight will exactly balance each other, or be in Equilibrio . And if the Power is fuffi- ciently augmented to overcome the friction of the Machine, it will put it in motion. The Lever is of 3 kinds, i. When the fixed point is between the ...<
