...expressed the relation of equation (3) as follows : Change of motion is proportional to the motive force, and takes place in the direction of the straight line in which the force acts. By "motion" Newton here refers, not to velocity but to mass-velocity, or what we have just designated... | |

...may be compelled by force to change that line. 2. Change of motion is proportional to force applied, and takes place in the direction of the straight line in which the force acts. 3. To every action there is always an equal and contrary reaction, or the mutual actions of any two... | |

...second law may be expressed by saying, the change of momentum is proportional to the force impressed and takes place in the direction of the straight line in which the force acts. Or, the acceleration of motion of a body is directly proportional to the force to which it is subject,... | |

...second of Newton's laws of motion is that change of motion is proportional to the impressed motive force and takes place in the direction of the straight line in which that force is impressed. In respect to the atmosphere, this means that the change of the motion of... | |

The rate of change of momentum is proportional to the impressed force, and takes...direction of the straight line in which the force acts. The force, then, produces change in a certain quantity, — the momentum of the body on which the force... | |
