...area, thus moving with less velocity. In fact instantaneous photographs show that it takes twice the time to complete the upstroke that is needed for the downstroke. Unless matter offered resistance, no force could be brought to bear, and force must equal resistance. In a tug-of-war the tension on the rope is equal, and the question is, not who can pull the hardest on the rope, but who can push most vigorously on the cleats. The same results are produced by a great pressure for a short time and by a small pressure for a long time. This...
