Deferring the subject of harmonic pencils to the next section, it will suffice to state here that any transversal intersects an harmonic pencil in an harmonic range.
If two straight lines which are cut by a transversal make alternate angles equal, the lines cannot meet, however far they be produced, hence they are parallel.
In other words, there seems to be a longitudinal; and a transversal mass which need not be the same.

The existence of transversal vibration in those materials has not been yet proved experimentally, though there is sufficient ground to preclude our denying their probable existence.
In the case of like movements propagated in elastic and perfectly homogeneous and isotropic solids, the wave possesses both normal and transversal vibrations, and is, in so far, analogous to the case of light.
These steel bars, however, always left a transversal black line on the filament, and diminished its marketable value.

It stretches far beyond the transversal spine, for the mountains of the Basque Provinces, Asturias, and Gallicia, are its continuation.
His forehead is covered with transversal folds; he has no muzzle, properly speaking, but a kind of snout like that of a hog.
The English settlers in Van Diemen's Land give the thylacynus the name of Zebra Wolf, because it has, in effect, the greater portion of the dorsal region and the base of the tail marked with transversal brown lines, like zebra stripes.
Transversal maneuvers to gain the extremity of the front of operations of the enemy here become always very difficult, and often impossible.
A transversal ridge seems to connect it with the central chain, south of Paramo de Piscoguanuna (or Piscuaguna), west of Chachapoyas.
The capital of Brazil is situated at the point where the two chains draw nearest together and are linked together on the east of the Serra de Mantiqueira, if not by a transversal ridge, at least by a mountainous territory.
The transversalarch is twenty-five feet wide and fifty-seven feet high.
The interior sides of the piers are inscribed with the names of ninety-six victories; under the transversal arches are the names of generals.
In this way a new figure is obtained, composed of points all lying on the fixedtransversal s.
It is the velocity on the one hand, and on the other hand the ratio of the charge to the total transversal mass.
It is necessary therefore to distinguish the total longitudinal mass from the total transversal mass.
The transversal mass would no longer be equal to the longitudinal: they would only be nearly equal if the velocity is not too great.
She next builds a second transversal partition and a second longitudinal partition perpendicular to it.
We then find first a transversal partition, formed of tiny bits of gravel cemented by a putty made from resin, which is collected in fresh drops from the oxycedrus and the Aleppo pine.
By the time that the base of the eleventh cell is reached, the transversal partition is once more almost perpendicular to the axis.
The edifice ends with two transversal partitions and one longitudinal partition, which mark out, on the same level, chambers twelve and thirteen, both of which contain males.
There is first, at a suitable distance from the bottom or the node of the reed, a transversal partition, perpendicular to the axis of the tube.
The transversal partitions become more and more slanting and the work grows irregular, but always with a sprinkling of large chambers for the females and small chambers for the males.
Andes take a great transversal extension; there are no wide intermediate valleys between the different ridges but the main ridge is perfectly defined.
To the north of Tres Cruces is a transversal depression in the Cordillera, which is considered to be the southern termination of the high plateau of the Puna de Atacama.
On the upper surface of her corpulent belly alternate, intransversal bands, bright black, a vivid yellow like that of yolk of egg and a dazzling white like that of snow.
When, starting from a position parallel with the axis of the tree, the Sirex has passed gradually to a transversal position, he completes his course in a straight line, which is the shortest road.
Is the difficulty of pairing in a transversalposition the explanation of the long grappling-irons thrown out to a distance?
These two propositions having been proved, the usual definitions of the angles made by a transversal of two parallels may be given.
Thus the scales which defend the back and the upper part of the tail are square, and form hard transversal bands possessed of great flexibility, which prevents them from breaking.
Truncated Blade in Reindeer's Horn, bearing two Series of transversal Lines and Notches, probably used for numeration.
Truncated Blade in Reindeer's Horn bearing two Series of transversal Lines and Notches, probably used for numeration 67 31.
But in the case of the female the brown fustian gives place to a beautiful velvet, with a paletransversal band and little white eyes on the fore pair of wings.
Others, transversalbut finer, cut the first at right angles, forming with them a multitude of meshes.
From each of these oscillations results a layer of eggs in the interior, and a transversal crevice on the exterior.
A transversal cleft makes its appearance on the forehead, at the bottom of the perforating diadem; a second, but longitudinal slit divides the skull in two and extends down the thorax.
Lastly, their backs are streaked with faint transversal lines, an elegant detail perceptible only with the lens.
They regard the two parts of the shock as corresponding in the main to longitudinal and transversalwaves starting simultaneously from the same focus (see p.
In the second or transversal wave, the vibration of the particle at P takes place in a plane at right angles to FP.
These were for the most part transversal earthquakes, their axes being perpendicular to those of the Oneglia centre.
