Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from �l�ments de M�canique: R�dig�s Conform�ment au Programme de l'Enseignement Scientifique dans les Lyc�es
Un corps est dit en repos quand il occupe constamment la m�me position dans l'espace; il est en mouvement quand il occupe � diverses �poques des positions diff�rentes. Quand un corps en repos est abandonn� � lui-m�me, il reste ind�finiment en repos. Quand le corps, au contraire, passe de l'�tat de repos � l'�tat de mouvement, il ne peut le faire que sous l'influence d'une cause �trang�re qu'on appelle force.
