Khurram Wadee ✅<p>Forgive the recent apparent obsession (I’d call it a fascination) with the <a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/cycloid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cycloid</span></a> but I’ve just discovered something I’d not heard of before. It is also called a <a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/TautochroneCurve" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TautochroneCurve</span></a> or <a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/Isochrone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Isochrone</span></a> curve, which means that a particle starting from any location on the curve will get to the <a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/MinimumPoint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MinimumPoint</span></a> at precisely the same time as a particle starting at any other point.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/Dynamics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Dynamics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/Kinematics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kinematics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/Mathematics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mathematics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/AppliedMathematics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AppliedMathematics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/Mechanics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mechanics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/ClassicalMecanics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClassicalMecanics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/WxMaxima" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WxMaxima</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/FreeSoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreeSoftware</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/MyWork" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MyWork</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/CCBYSA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CCBYSA</span></a></p>
