circular

   Book,  Paragraph
1 I, 2 | it, is either straight or circular or a combination of these 2 I, 2 | two, the straight and the circular line, are the only simple 3 I, 2 | revolution about the centre is circular motion, while the upward 4 I, 2 | simple movement, and that circular movement is an instance 5 I, 2 | of its own nature with a circular movement. By constraint, 6 I, 2 | contrary, it will follow that circular movement, being a simple 7 I, 2 | body, whose movement is circular, is fire or some other element, 8 I, 2 | must be the contrary of the circular motion. But a single thing 9 I, 2 | the body moving with this circular motion which is unnatural 10 I, 2 | or earth. Further, this circular motion is necessarily primary. 11 I, 2 | which naturally prior, and circular movement is prior to straight, 12 I, 2 | this is so, it follows that circular movement also must be the 13 I, 2 | necessarily follows that circular movement, being unnatural 14 I, 2 | Further, if, on the one hand, circular movement is natural to something, 15 I, 2 | ordained to move with a natural circular motion, as fire is ordained 16 I, 3 | no contrary motion to the circular, nature seems justly to 17 I, 3 | body which moves with a circular motion cannot admit of increase 18 I, 3 | two simple motions, the circular and the straight, the latter 19 I, 4 | opposed as contrary to the circular may be proved in various 20 I, 4 | the straight line to the circular. For concave and convex 21 I, 4 | if there is a contrary to circular motion, motion in a straight 22 I, 4 | rectilinear path applies also the circular, movement from A to B being 23 I, 4 | a single path, while the circular paths which pass through 24 I, 5 | is necessarily infinite: circular motion therefore is an impossibility. 25 I, 5 | there is something to which circular movement belongs.~(2) Again, 26 I, 5 | the heavens complete their circular orbit, and consequently 27 I, 5 | and they complete their circular orbit in a finite time; 28 I, 5 | no circle there can be no circular movement, and similarly 29 I, 5 | impossibility, there can be no circular motion of an infinite body.~( 30 I, 7 | the body whose movement is circular be infinite, since it is 31 I, 8 | their movement. (Even in circular movement there is a sort 32 I, 8 | as from the nature of the circular movement, which must be 33 II, 3 | 3~Since circular motion is not the contrary 34 II, 3 | contrary of the reverse circular motion, we must consider 35 II, 3 | reason to it is given the circular body whose nature it is 36 II, 3 | towards the centre. But the circular movement is natural, since 37 II, 3 | must be at least one other circular motion: for a single movement 38 II, 3 | why there is more than one circular body is the necessity of 39 II, 4 | straight line but never to the circular, clearly the line which 40 II, 4 | body which revolves with a circular movement must be spherical. 41 II, 4 | extremities of the radii is circular: therefore the surface of 42 II, 5 | and the heaven and its circular motion are eternal. We must 43 II, 6 | midway between the two. But circular movement, having no beginning 44 II, 7 | whose natural movement is circular. In so saying we are only 45 II, 9 | sound given forth by the circular movement of the stars is 46 II, 12| stars which move with a circular motion, in respect of substance 47 II, 13| creating night and day by its circular motion about the centre. 48 II, 13| section would have to be circular. In this they leave out 49 II, 13| not to make them doubt the circular shape of the earth. But 50 II, 13| when the cup is given a circular motion, though it is often 51 II, 14| everything that moves with the circular movement, except the first 52 II, 14| not only that the earth is circular, but also that it is a circle 53 II, 14| not only that the earth is circular in shape, but also that 54 III, 8 | but rather to that form of circular movement which we call rolling.
