The Cable Equation With Length and Time Constants
If we multiply equation (12) by on both sides of the equal sign we get:
-
(19)
and recognize on the left side and on the right side. The cable equation can now be written in its perhaps best known form:
-

“To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars.”
—Douglass Cross (b. 1920)

—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“To find the length of an object, we have to perform certain
physical operations. The concept of length is therefore fixed when the operations by which length is measured are fixed: that is, the concept of length involves as much as and nothing more than the set of operations by which length is determined.”
—Percy W. Bridgman (1882–1961)
“At a time when pimpery, lick-spittlery, and picking the public’s pocket are the order of the day—indeed, officially proclaimed as virtue—the poet must play the madcap to keep his balance. And ours.”
