The sooner the term vis-viva is rejected in its present acceptation, thesooner will the science of dynamics be cleared up. Whatever name maybe selected for the work concentrated in a moving mass, it ought to ex-press the fundamental elementsP V and T. I would propose tocall it energy, but even if the termvis-viva is maintained, it oughtto mean the true work -J- M V-and not M V2. A parallelopipedon constructedon the mean velocity will repre-sent the true work P v t. When the force P is variable,as represented by Fig. 5, the hy-pothenuse of the catheters l andV will be a curved line, the formof which depends on the nature ofvariation of P, but the work willstill be. W = fFGtrH, as before. Momentum, Velocity, Space, Power, Work, M V ./Fit. y F dt. W 8 = fdv /*pat P= IfF,-/Pdt = 2F»( = M V which will represent the work under all circumstances. The form jure of work depends on the nature of variation of F and v.
