Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a series of arguments against the opinion that the force of a moving body has a direct proportionality to the square of its velocity. The author, a notable mathematician of his day, sets out to prove that this force is in fact only proportional to the body's actual speed. This argument engages deeply with the ideas proposed by other prominent intellectuals of the time and effectively lays the groundwork for the development of modern physics by providing irrefutable evidence against the prevailing ideas of the nature of force and motion.
