motions

    Book, Paragraph
1 III, 3 | Since then they are both motions, we may ask: in what are 2 III, 3 | absurdity, a thing will have two motions at the same time. How will 3 V, 1 | Affections, it may be said, are motions, and whiteness is an affection: 4 V, 1 | of contradiction, are not motions: it necessarily follows 5 V, 4 | touch or come to be one? Motions that are not the same either 6 V, 4 | two things are one. Hence motions may be consecutive or successive 7 V, 4 | continuity only in virtue of the motions themselves being continuous, 8 V, 4 | both regular and irregular, motions that are consecutive but 9 V, 5 | further to determine what motions are contrary to each other, 10 V, 5 | decide whether contrary motions are motions respectively 11 V, 5 | whether contrary motions are motions respectively from and to 12 V, 5 | be and ceasing to be); or motions respectively from contraries, 13 V, 5 | motion from disease; or motions respectively to contraries, 14 V, 5 | a motion to disease; or motions respectively from a contrary 15 V, 5 | a motion to disease; or motions respectively from a contrary 16 V, 5 | from disease to health: for motions must be contrary to one 17 V, 5 | they can be opposed.~Now motions respectively from a contrary 18 V, 5 | disease, are not contrary motions: for they are one and the 19 V, 5 | opposite contrary contrary motions, for a motion from a contrary 20 V, 5 | cause of the contrariety of motions, the latter being the loss, 21 V, 5 | sickening. Thus we are left with motions respectively to contraries, 22 V, 5 | respectively to contraries, and motions respectively to contraries 23 V, 5 | Now it would seem that motions to contraries are at the 24 V, 5 | contraries are at the same time motions from contraries (though 25 V, 5 | it follows that contrary motions are motions respectively 26 V, 5 | that contrary motions are motions respectively from a contrary 27 V, 5 | these are changes and not motions. And wherever a pair of 28 V, 5 | admit of an intermediate, motions to that intermediate must 29 V, 5 | be held to be in a sense motions to one or other of the contraries: 30 V, 5 | above. Thus we see that two motions are contrary to each other 31 V, 6 | that there are contrary motions and not opposite states 32 V, 6 | motion; and one of these two motions it must be. And (1) rest 33 V, 6 | exclude these from among motions, we must not say that this 34 V, 6 | and the other that.~Now motions and states of rest universally 35 V, 6 | the same thing: one of its motions, the upward or the downward, 36 V, 6 | unnatural as well as to natural motions. It would be absurd if this 37 VI, 1 | corresponding indivisible motions: e.g. if the magnitude ABG 38 VI, 1 | motion will consist not of motions but of starts, and will 39 VI, 1 | indivisibles composing DEZ are motions, it would be possible for 40 VI, 1 | rest, while if they are not motions, it would be possible for 41 VI, 1 | of something other than motions.~And if length and motion 42 VI, 2 | and slower may apply to motions occupying any period of 43 VI, 4 | divisible according to the motions of the several parts of 44 VI, 4 | severally constitute the motions of each of its parts. But 45 VI, 4 | parts of the motion are the motions of the parts of that whole: 46 VI, 4 | the parts of DZ are the motions of AB, BG and of nothing 47 VI, 4 | subtracted from it: and these motions will be equal to DE, EZ 48 VI, 4 | may be divided into the motions of the parts, OI will be 49 VI, 4 | surplus on the side of the motions of the parts. Consequently, 50 VI, 4 | motion according to the motions of the parts: and it must 51 VI, 4 | corresponding to each of the two motions DG (say) and GE, we may 52 VI, 4 | thing is divisible into the motions of the parts of the thing: 53 VI, 4 | corresponding to each of the two motions, we shall see that the whole 54 VI, 10 | parallel): for parts have motions belonging essentially and 55 VI, 10 | motion, because all these motions do not compose one. If it 56 VII, 1 | evident that the respective motions of A, B, G, and each of 57 VII, 1 | H and O respectively the motions of G and D: for though they 58 VII, 1 | composed of all the individual motions, must be infinite. For the 59 VII, 1 | must be infinite. For the motions of A, B, and the others 60 VII, 1 | others may be equal, or the motions of the others may be greater: 61 VII, 2 | spitting and of all other motions that proceed through the 62 VII, 4 | None the less, if the two motions are commensurable, we are 63 VII, 4 | and so the corresponding motions are not commensurable either.~ 64 VII, 4 | the things to which the motions belong essentially and not 65 VII, 4 | specifically, then their respective motions will also differ specifically: 66 VII, 4 | generically or numerically, the motions also will differ generically 67 VIII, 1 | produce either of two contrary motions: thus fire causes heating 68 VIII, 2 | originates not all of its motions but its locomotion. So it 69 VIII, 2 | necessarily be the case-that many motions are produced in the body 70 VIII, 3 | opinion are thought to be motions of a kind. But to investigate 71 VIII, 4 | not evident whence such motions as the upward motion of 72 VIII, 6 | connected with other natural motions in animals, which they do 73 VIII, 6 | it will produce contrary motions in each several thing that 74 VIII, 7 | must be the last of its motions: for after its becoming 75 VIII, 7 | plain that no one of the motions next in order can be prior 76 VIII, 7 | prior to locomotion. By the motions next in order I mean increase 77 VIII, 7 | of changes that are not motions: for becoming and perishing, 78 VIII, 7 | impossible for the opposite motions or changes to be present 79 VIII, 8 | respective relations to the two motions. Therefore that which turns 80 VIII, 8 | undergoing two contrary motions, since the two motions that 81 VIII, 8 | contrary motions, since the two motions that follow the same straight 82 VIII, 8 | are the opposites of the motions (for we found that there 83 VIII, 8 | various specifically distinct motions, not some particular part 84 VIII, 8 | then, inasmuch as the two motions that follow the same straight 85 VIII, 8 | straight line are contrary motions, and it is impossible for 86 VIII, 8 | simultaneously two contrary motions, that which is undergoing 87 VIII, 8 | two contrary or opposite motions: for a motion to a point 88 VIII, 8 | of place, as e.g. the two motions along the diameter of the 89 VIII, 8 | simultaneously two opposite motions. So, too, there cannot be 90 VIII, 8 | reason is that in these motions the starting-point and the 91 VIII, 8 | must be one or other of the motions just mentioned: in fact 92 VIII, 8 | applying universally to all motions, that no motion admits of 93 VIII, 9 | composite motion, in fact two motions, while if it does not turn 94 VIII, 9 | rotation is the measure of motions it must be the primary motion ( 95 VIII, 9 | the measure of all other motions. Again, rotatory motion 96 VIII, 9 | separation" and "combination" are motions in respect of place, and 97 VIII, 9 | subject to any of the other motions, though the things that 98 VIII, 10| simultaneously, so that their motions also cease simultaneously: 99 VIII, 10| consecutive series of separate motions), and that if the movement 100 VIII, 10| a consecutive series of motions. The only continuous motion,
