Abstract
Suppose we are carrying out a scientific experiment which requires the use of a circular hoop of wire whose circumference is 10 in. We could construct this hoop by cutting a piece of wire 10 in. long, bending it round a suitable former and then soldering the ends together. (See Fig. 14.1).
