Page 41 - ... multiplying the specific gravity of each ingredient by the difference between it and the specific gravity of the compound. As the sum of the products is to the respective products, so is the specific gravity of the body to the proportions of the ingredients ; then as the specific gravity of the compound is to the weight of the compound, so are each of the proportions to the weight of its material.
Page 40 - A body immersed in a fluid ascends or descends with a force equal to the difference between its own weight and the weight of an equal bulk of fluid ; the resistance or viscosity of the fluid not being considered.

Page 22 - Subtract each side separately from half the sum of the three sides. Find the continued product of the half -sum and the three remainders, and extract the square root of that product. Ex. Find the area of a triangle whose sides are 3, 4, and 5 ft. respectively. The half-sum of the sides is 3 + 4 + 5 = 6 ft., and the three remainders are 3 ft., 2 ft., 1 ft.
