...whether it be at rest, or moving uniformly forwards in a right line.' He then goes on to define force: 'An impressed force is an action exerted upon a body,...in order to change its state, either of rest, or of uniform motion in a right line.' Now we have force defined dynamically. He then goes straight on to...

...the velocity and quantity of matter conjointly.41 Of impressed force (vis impressa): Definition IV An impressed force is an action exerted upon a body,...in order to change its state, either of rest, or of uniform motion in a right line.42 And of centripetal force (vis centripeta): Definition V A centripetal...

...which every body, as much as in it lies, endeavors to persevere in its present state, whether it be of rest, or of moving uniformly forward in a right line. This force is ever proportional to the body whose force it is; and differs nothing from the inactivity of the...

...the force of gravity on a 1 .0 kg mass if the acceleration is 9.8 m/s/s ? F = ma F = 1 x9.8 = 9.8N A force is an action exerted upon a body, in order to change its state of rest or its state of uniform motion in a straight line. Action tends to produce a change in motion....

...the notion of "force" as that which causes a body to move. Heidegger quotes from Newton's Principia: "An impressed force is an action exerted upon a body,...in order to change its state, either of rest, or of uniform motion in a right line" [emphasis added] (264). Motion peculiar to a given body is a result...
