...reference to an inside force. "Every body continues in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a right line, unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed upon it." No longer was there any need for the vis insita to maintain uniform motion. In fact, there was really... | |

...three laws of motion. 1. Every body perseveres in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a right line, unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed thereon. 2. The alteration of motion is ever proportional to the motive force impressed; and is made... | |

...first law that "every body perseveres in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a right [straight] line, unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed thereon" clearly has its counterpart in the statement that "every particle follows a geodesic in spacetime."9... | |

...LAW I: LAW OF INERTIA Every body continues in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a straight line, unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed on it (13). The inertia of an object is used to describe its resistance to motion. Inertia is directly... | |
