...have been given by Newton in the form of Mechanical Axioms, or laws of motion. They are the following: LAW I. — Every body continues in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a straight line, unless acted upon by some external force. Matter in its unorganized...

...from a brief consideration of his simple statement of the laws of motion. The first of these laws is : Every body continues in its state of rest or of uniform...motion in a straight line, except in so far as it is compelled by impressed forces to change that state," Thus Professor Tait quotes, and fully approves,...

...be made use of at pleasure. These definitions being premised, we give Newton's Laws of Motion. 58. LAW I. Every body continues in its state of rest or...compelled by impressed forces to change that state. We may logically convert the assertion of the first law of motion as to velocity into the following...

...discuss the First Law of Motion. 10. First Law of Motion. Every body continues in a state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line, except in so far as it may be compelled to change that state by force acting on it. It is necessary to limit the meaning of the word motion...

...difficulty. 133. We will here repeat the Laws of Motion. I. Every body continues in a state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line, except in so far as it may be compelled to change that state by force acting on it. II. Change of motion is proportional to the acting force,...

This property which is called inertia is best defined by Newton's law " Every body continues in its state of rest, or of uniform...compelled by impressed forces to change that state." Now, by uniform motion we mean moving through equal spaces in equal times, or rather we should say,...
