the distance that a body must fall in
order to generate the same velocity as

This means that the shell will continue
to rise only for the length OF time re-
quircd by gravity to destroy its motion.
The formula may be put in this form
The velocity equals eight times the square
root of the height. This is derived from
the ordinary formula V2-2 G s.
Assume that the velocity OF the shell on
leaving the cannon's mouth is 400 feet
per second, directly upward. BY the for
mula, 2,4OO divided by s, or 800, equals
the square root of the height. The height

ploding powder. What gravitation has
done is. first. to destroy the upward mo-
ton Of the flying projectile. and second.
to impart to the arrested projectile the
same speed Of descent that it had OF
ascent
II Is important to note that all of
these calculations purposely neglect the
effects of the resistance of the air. Air
resistance would bring the projectile to
rest sooner. and diminish the height OF
it's ascent The amount of this resistance
depends upon a large number of variable
by experiment, but 1t has been so sue
cessfully studied that the science of gun

has attained a very high degree OF ac-

Surprising perfect horizontally OF the

purpose would be about five miles per
second.
The shell flying at that speed would

cause the surface OF the earth rounds off
sixteen feet in about five miles. so that
the shell would be Just as high above it
