...uninvolved God. In Newton's First Law of Motion, for example, "A body must continue in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless acted upon by some external force." Here matter is inert, with "nothing in common with either life or mind. The material universe [is]... | |

...planets, the precision of the equinoxes, and the cause of the tides. There are three laws of motion, i. 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 forces acting upon it. 2. The change of motion (or 'acceleration')... | |

...the basis for developing a practical definition of the magnitude of force. Newton's First Law states: 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 forces acting on it. This law leads us to the definition of... | |

...mechanics. 2.1 Newton's laws The basis of Newtonian mechanics rests on the following laws: (1) A body continues in its state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless it is compelled by an external force, to change that state. (2) The change of motion is proportional... | |

...with caution. The concept of 'force' 2 It is convenient to start with Newton whose First Law reads: '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 forces impressed upon it'. This formulation arose from consideration... | |
