On Shaking of Bodies
(1) Mathematics in Naples, Naples, Italy Deceased A very frequent reaction to percussion is vibration and shaking which occur in bodies. Somewhere else we will deal with quivering in…
The Energy of Percussion Is Greater than the Compressive Force of Any Finite Heavy Body
(1) Mathematics in Naples, Naples, Italy Deceased The experiment described above did not lead us to the quest of the truth because of some circumstances not yet discovered. Therefore,…
Explanation of the Problem and Enquiry on the Actual Causes of This Wonderful Effect
(1) Mathematics in Naples, Naples, Italy Deceased In the experiment thus described, something can be found for the infinity of the virtue of percussion as will be shown in…
On the Comparison Between the Energy of Percussion and the Compressive Force of Gravity
(1) Mathematics in Naples, Naples, Italy Deceased What was said so far is not only pleasant to know but also very useful to solve the wonderful problem concerning the…
All Solid Bodies Are Not Absolutely Hard but They Are Either Fluent or Soft or Elastic
(1) Mathematics in Naples, Naples, Italy Deceased The wonderful qualities of percussion, which must be explained and demonstrated at the end, require the structure of solid bodies to be…
Digression on the Reason Why a Magnet Attracts Iron
(1) Mathematics in Naples, Naples, Italy Deceased From the theory thus presented on why and how heavy bodies fall, not only a new but perhaps an appropriate explanation of…
The Force of the Impetus of Falling Heavy Bodies Is Smaller than Any Impulsive Force Impressed by a Projectile
(1) Mathematics in Naples, Naples, Italy Deceased Even if the fall of heavy bodies results from blows and impulses delivered by the inner motive virtue of the heavy body…
How Can an Accelerated Movement Be Generated
(1) Mathematics in Naples, Naples, Italy Deceased From that which was explained above, it appears that an accelerated movement is generated by a gradually increasing impetus. The flow of…
Moving Bodies Are Urged at an Uniform Velocity Never to Be Annihilated
(1) Mathematics in Naples, Naples, Italy Deceased We demonstrated that not all bodies are moved by a distinct and separate motor. But finally we must consider the moving subject…
Projectiles After Being Separated from Their Impeller Are Not Moved Forwards by the Fluid Environment in Which They Are
(1) Mathematics in Naples, Naples, Italy Deceased As mentioned above, it is obvious that some bodies are moved by an external and separate motor. One usually searches for what…
