Consider the curve y = ae−t/t0 (Fig. 1.)
Mark off along the t – axis a distance OT0 equal to the time constant t0.
Divide OT0 into n equal parts and erect ordinates at each point of division.
M, N, are the mth and (m + 1)th of these, counting from O.
MP, NQ, are the corresponding ordinates; P, Q, the points on the curve; and R the intersection of the chord, produced, with the t – axis.
