end on

The only feature Week-End-on-Sea will have in common with other seaside places is a parade.

The weight against it is resisted both by the end-on poles that are parallel to the flow and by those set at an angle to it.

When they were in a position to make for the steamer, the order was given to “back all oars and keep her end-on to the sea.”

The boat must be made to cut the breakers end-on, so as to prevent her turning broadside on and being rolled back on the beach.

The principle that the refrangibility of light is altered by end-on motion was enunciated by Christian Doppler of Prague in 1842.
