The English Galileo: Thomas Harriot's Work on Motion as an ...
traversed could also be applied in uniformly difform motion. From this then the
times squared law followed. In the case of a spatial interpretation of extension,
one could restrict oneself to considering equal intervals of space. As explained ...

The Application of Mathematics to the Sciences of Nature: ...
This change can be either uniform or difform; in the first case the displacement is
also uniform, while in the second case it is difform. This is a very natural
distinction, but it can work only if we know, by an independent source, what the
quality of ...

Functional Equations and How to Solve Them
Of central interest in his treatise is the idea of uniform motion and “uniformly
difform motion,” the latter denoting the motion of a particle undergoing uniform
acceleration.3 Also considered was “difformly difform motion,” where the
acceleration ...

Mathematical Time Capsules: Historical Modules for the ...
Difform. Motion. Let's start with what we would call motion with constant velocity.
Following early writers, Oresme called this uniform motion, since there was one (
uni) form of motion; that is, all the vertical segments were the same. If the motion ...

A Source Book in Medieval Science
Now every other linear quality is said to be "difformly difform" and is imaginable
by means of figures otherwise disposed according to manifold variation. Some
modes of the "difformly difform" will be examined later. The aforesaid differences
of ...

Interpreting Physics: Language and the Classical/Quantum Divide
A uniform motion (U) is one with a constant velocity (v), while a difform motion (D)
has changing velocity. Motion may be uniform or difform in two different way: with
respect to space (U(x) or D(x)) depending on whether all the parts of a body ...

Studi sul XIV secolo in memoria di Anneliese Maier
If the speed varies, the motion is difform: uniformly difform if the rate of
intensification or remission (acceleration or deceleration) is constant, difformly
difform otherwise 20. The notion of instantaneous speed can be introduced
appropriately for ...

Prelude to Galileo: Essays on Medieval and Sixteenth-Century ...
These distinctions were applied generally to the intensification of changes or
motions; as applied to local motion "intension" became synonymous with velocity
or its change, and thus various qualifying adjectives such as "uniform" and "
difform" ...

But another one is called a difform latitude and there are two kinds of it. One is
uniformly difform: ^]; the other is difformly difform: ^"1 . A uniformly difform latitude
either begins from no degree and is terminated at a certain degree: ^\; or it is not
