1 I, 3 | we are using the words "heavy" and "light", sufficiently, 2 I, 3 | us then apply the term "heavy" to that which naturally 3 I, 3 | same thing: for things are heavy and light relatively to 4 I, 7 | lightness be universal, none is heavy. Moreover, whatever possesses 5 I, 8 | centre has been given to the heavy body. And its position cannot 6 II, 13| remains, why now do all heavy bodies move to the earth. 7 II, 13| whirl which determines the heavy and the light. Rather that 8 II, 13| caused the pre-existent heavy and light things to go to 9 II, 13| before ever the whirl began, heavy and light existed; and what 10 II, 13| and it is by these that heavy and light are determined.~ 11 II, 14| portions of earth and other heavy things move to. Is this 12 II, 14| indicated by the fact that heavy bodies moving towards the 13 II, 14| given, but also because heavy bodies forcibly thrown quite 14 II, 14| fact that the motions of heavy bodies always make equal 15 III, 1 | have weight. For while a heavy thing may always be heavier 16 III, 1 | something need not be itself heavy or light, just as a large 17 III, 1 | things. Whatever, then, is heavy and also heavier than something 18 III, 1 | this by something which is heavy. A heavy thing therefore 19 III, 1 | something which is heavy. A heavy thing therefore is always 20 III, 1 | Again, suppose that what is heavy or weight is a dense body, 21 III, 1 | point, then, if it may be heavy or light, may be dense or 22 III, 1 | indivisible. And if what is heavy must be either hard or soft, 23 III, 1 | will be light and others heavy (which involves a similar 24 III, 2 | which they now stand, the heavy bodies moving towards the 25 III, 2 | will be greater since the heavy thing must move further. 26 III, 2 | must move further. Let the heavy body then be divided in 27 III, 2 | distance CD. Dividing the heavy body in the proportion CE: 28 III, 2 | CD, we subtract from the heavy body a part which will in 29 III, 2 | the same distance as the heavy in the same time. But this 30 III, 2 | For air is both light and heavy, and thus qua light produces 31 III, 2 | motion by the force, and qua heavy produces a downward motion. 32 III, 2 | bodies are either light or heavy, and (2) how unnatural movement 33 IV, 1 | now to consider the terms "heavy" and "light". We must ask 34 IV, 1 | movement, since we call things heavy and light because they have 35 IV, 1 | absolute, (b) a relative heavy and light. Of two heavy 36 IV, 1 | heavy and light. Of two heavy things, such as wood and 37 IV, 1 | light, the other relatively heavy. Our predecessors have not 38 IV, 1 | do not explain what the heavy is or what the light is, 39 IV, 1 | extremity, and by absolutely heavy that which moves downward 40 IV, 2 | part spoken of light and heavy things only in the sense 41 IV, 2 | identical parts is relatively heavy, while that which is composed 42 IV, 2 | nothing of the absolutely heavy and light. The facts are 43 IV, 2 | of relatively light and heavy between these bodies, it 44 IV, 2 | distinction between light and heavy. To others the analysis 45 IV, 2 | the notions of light and heavy at all; and those who, while 46 IV, 2 | bodies which are absolutely heavy and light, or in other words 47 IV, 2 | discriminate the absolutely heavy? Presumably, either by its 48 IV, 2 | ground of distinction between heavy things and light. There 49 IV, 2 | are some light and some heavy; they had only to explain 50 IV, 2 | are themselves light and heavy respectively, and to give, 51 IV, 2 | nothing can be absolutely heavy or light: and if there is 52 IV, 2 | the absolutely light and heavy when compared either with 53 IV, 3 | will inquire into light and heavy and of the various phenomena 54 IV, 3 | that which is potentially heavy or light, and the movement 55 IV, 3 | light thing goes upward, a heavy thing downward. The only 56 IV, 3 | last case, viz. that of the heavy and the light, the bodies 57 IV, 3 | But the reason why the heavy and the light appear more 58 IV, 3 | out of water, light out of heavy, it goes to the upper place. 59 IV, 4 | distinguish the absolutely heavy, as that which sinks to 60 IV, 4 | character of "light" and "heavy", in order to confine the 61 IV, 4 | absolutely either light or heavy. Both are lighter than earth-for 62 IV, 4 | are severally light and heavy, and evidently in them the 63 IV, 4 | preponderate the bodies will be heavy and light respectively. 64 IV, 4 | one place is regarded as heavy in another, and vice versa. 65 IV, 4 | everywhere, while water is heavy anywhere but in earth, and 66 IV, 4 | but in earth, and air is heavy when not in water or earth. 67 IV, 4 | light and an absolutely heavy body.
