...exhausted, in the line of fire, agreeably to the first law of motion, by which every tody must persevere in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless it be compelled to change that state by forces impressed upon it. Why cannot the bullet do this...

...space, or non-corpuscular atoms of ether, by centrifugal force. He says, — " Every body perseveres in its state of rest, or uniform motion in a straight line, unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed thereon."* Now what force is to impress...

...and explain a storage battery. Answers in Physics. 1. (a) Newton's "first law": Every body continues in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line except so far as it may be compelled by force to change that state.This "law of inertia" explains the constant resistance...

...following statement of Newton's First Law (p. 36) harmonizes with the facts : " Every body perseveres in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless it receives energy from or gives off energy to some other body." Such a statement assumes that...

...energy of the moving body. This may be expressed by Hewton»e law of motion that «A body will continue in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless acted upon by some applied force*, and in that case "the change from rest or uniform motion...

...its own flow when it is growing and retard its own decay when it is diminishing; in short, that it exhibits a quality akin to the "inertia" of matter, which tends to retain every material body in its stale of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, except so far as it is compelled by forces to change...
