The working of the linear planimeter may be explained by measuring the area of a rectangle ABCD (see image). Moving with the pointer from A to B the arm EM moves through the yellow …
2004年1月2日 · Linear Planimeter The two planimeters differ in the movement of the end of the tracer arm opposite the tracer point. In the linear planimeter, that end is restricted to move …
Amsler is also credited with conceiving a design for a planimeter that restricted the movement of the end of the tracer arm opposite the tracer point to a straight line. The collections suggest …
2009年5月26日 · When a planimeter is used to measure a region, the user moves the right endpoint of the rod, the tracing point, around the boundary of the region to be measured. …
This German silver linear planimeter is T-shaped. The base of the T has a measuring scale, which no longer can be read due to rust, and a metal wheel that slides up and down the scale when …
ingenious device called planimeter was invented in 1814 to satisfy the need of land surveyors and other real life applications. There is an extensive literature devoted to the mathematics
the planimeter traces out the curve, the roller moves up and down the y-axis, while the tracer arm rotates on the pivot. Hence the rolling planimeter is really a form of linear planimeter (as …
2000年12月9日 · The polar planimeter is a mechanical device for measuring areas of regions in the plane which are bounded by smooth boundaries. The measurement is based directly on …
