...the .relation between force and motion in three laws: 1. All bodies continue in a state of rest, or of uniform motion in a straight line, unless acted upon by some external force that compels a change. 2. Every change of motion is proportional to the acting force, and takes place... | |

...matter by virtue of which if a body is at rest it will stay at rest or if in motion will remain in motion in a straight line unless acted upon by some external force. Inertia is a purely negative quantity. It might further be defined as the reluctance of a body to change... | |

...property of moving bodies is a fundamental law, laid down by Newton in his " First Law of Motion." " Every body continues in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a straight line, unless it is compelled to change that state by external forces." As regards the use of Gyrostats, in order... | |

...the beginning. The laws of motion as usually stated are (1) Every body persists in a state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by some external force. (2) The measure of the force acting upon a body at any moment in a given direction is the rate of change... | |

...one of them is inert, whether it be at rest or in motion. "Every body continues in a state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless acted upon by some external force," is the law of physics. If the materialist is correct, then these separate substances ought to be able... | |

...this last law, but there is another law which modifies it: All bodies continue in a state of rest, or motion in a straight line, unless acted upon by some external force that compels a change; but no matter how great the force may be, a body cannot be instantly put in... | |

...of the laws of nature, has no kind of meaning. Take a law of nature— take Newton's first law : ' Every body continues in its state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line, unless it is compelled by impressed forces to change that state.' E. g. suppose an arrow is coming straight... | |

...They form the basis of many of the important principles of mechanics. 129. First Law of Motion. — Every body continues in its state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line, unless compelled by applied force to change that state. proportion to its mass. Hence the term mass is now... | |

...may be reduced to matter and motion. In this connection we may recall Newton's first law of motion; " Every body continues in its state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change that state by forces impressed upon it." Leibniz is certainly the real author of... | |
