Then, with z = E, and

if II denotes the apsidal angle of [~omega], and T the time of a single

beat of the axle, up or down,

in accordance with the theory of the complete elliptic integral of the

third kind.

Interpreted geometrically on the deformable hyperboloid, flattened in

the plane of the focal ellipse, if OQ is the perpendicular from the

centre on the tangent HP, AOQ = amfK', and the eccentric angle of P,

measured from the minor axis, is am(1 - f)K', the eccentricity of the

focal ellipse being the comodulus [kappa]'.
