A FAMOUS PROBLEM.
It DU Rat Tak JUwtea Utf to
rim the rtrrwt Mlatlea.
Ia Newton' timt it waa often the
custom for Illustrious mathematician
when they Dl"l dlscoTered a solution
ror some new six striking problem, to
pabllth thst problem at a challenge to
the world while withholding their own
eolation. A famoos Instance of thla la
roand U what la known aa tho Brachls
tochroM problem, which waa sclred by
J aba Bernoulli!. The nature of thla
problem may bo mentioned. It waa to
sna ue enape 01 u cam along which
' a body would allde down from on
; point (A) to another (B) In the ahorteat
time. It might at first be thought that
the straight line from A to B, aa It la
WMOuhtedly tho ahorteat distance be
tween tho do lota, would also be tho
path of quick eat descent, but thla hi
not so.
There la a cured Una down which a
bond, let oa aa, would ran on 4
smooth wire from A to B la a shorter
tune than tho sane bead would re
quire to ran down tho atraight wire.
rnnovia 0 problem waa to owl out
what that eurre muat bo.
Nowtoa aolred It correct It. Bo
bowed that the tnrra waa a part of
what la termed a cycloid that la to
sej. a enrro like that which la de-
- acribM by a nail .on tho rim -of a ear
rtaga wheal aa tho wheel rone along fee
ground. 8och waa Newton'a geomet
rical tnalght that be waa able to trane-
nut a solution of tho problem an tho
flay after be had recetred It to tho
prauoeni or tae Koyaj society.
