...well as to the grandest phenomena we can conceive. 65. LAW II. Change of motion is proportional to the force, and takes place in the direction of the straight line in which the force acts. We have considered change of velocity, or acceleration, TD 4 as a purely geometrical quantity, and... | |

...the other forces were not acting, and the change of motion or direction is proportional to the moving force, and takes place in the direction of the straight line in which the force or resultant offerces acts. This law asserts that there is no such thing as the annihilation of the... | |

Of these laws, the second evidently falls back on the first, as that in which the conception of velocity,... | |

Thus the words of Newton, in his Second Law of Motion, are: "Change of Motion is proportional to the impressed...direction of the straight line in which the force acts." The word Motion in this law is now rendered Momentum (p. 17). The third of the Laws of Motion which... | |
