an hour: when The wind acts alone and prodit
ces this effect, its velocity must be much great
er than that of the boat as the latter is mn
iormly retarded by the resistance of the water.
Let us suppose Tie wind TO travel at the rafe
ofnfteen miles an hour, when tile boar sails
I'VE miles, IT Is evident that in this case two.

overcoming the resistance of tie wafer II

ihe earth seemed 10 be clothed with new nav
