...Newton In Principia, 1687 This is Newton's famous expression for the universal law of gravitation. Every body continues in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, except in so far as it doesn't. — Sir Arthur Stanley Eddington In The Nature of the Physical Word, 1933... | |

...when we look at force and its effects. Newton's First Law This states that an object will continue in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless a force acts upon it. This means that, for example, an athlete or the shot will remain stationary... | |

...natures. Heidegger (1977) believes that Newton articulated this modern logos in his first law of motion: 'Every body continues in its state of rest, or uniform motion in a straight line, unless it is compelled to change that state by force impressed upon it' (256). For Heidegger, the reductionism... | |

...Heidegger begins by considering Newton's first law of motion, the principle of inertia, which states: "Every body continues in its state of rest, or uniform motion in a straight line, unless it is compelled to change that state by force impressed upon it" (256). Eventually Newton's... | |
