CHAPTER IV VARIABLES OF THE MOTION A discussion of variables of the motion opens up a field so large that it is only possible here to attempt to show the method of investigation, and to show that each vari- able is a necessary factor in making motions standard, leaving to the universities and to properly created and equipped bureaus of the national government the task of reducing motion study to an exact science. Acceleration In considering acceleration of speed as an element of any motion, we must determine: 1. The amount of acceleration that it is possible or economical to obtain. 2. The means by which the acceleration can be obtained. 3. The effect of the acceleration on a. Economy in time required to make the motion. b. Economy in time required for rest to overcome the fatigue of having made the motion. Examples. — 1. Laying brick on a wall from a floor, from the height of the floor level up to three feet eight inches high above the floor, can be done with greatest speed 65
