500 $aTranslation of: De vi percussionis, originally published in Italian in 1667 and translated into Latin in 1686, a precursor to Borelli's major work, De motu animalium (On the movement of animals), 1685. (Page [4] of cover and Wikipedia).
504 $aIncludes bibliographical references.
505 0 $a1. On the nature of movement in general -- 2. On the causes and principles of movement -- 3. Projectiles after being separated from their impeller are not moved forwards by the fluid environment in which they are -- 4. Projectiles are moved forwards by a virtue impressed by the throwing subject, after they are separated from the latter -- 5. On the properties and actions of the motive virtue -- 6. How the impetus of the throwing subject is distributed and transmitted in the projectiles and why it is decreased -- 7. The velocity which is transmitted by the blow to the projected body, by its nature, is distributed, not over a certain time, but in an instant -- 8. The velocity transmitted in elastic and not absolutely hard bodies by a striking blow is not impressed in one instant but in several successive instants of the time -- 9. The velocity impressed in a projectile is uniform by its nature, and perpetually durable -- 10. On the proportion of percussions carried out in a body absolutely stabile, or movable -- 11. On the variety of percussions, which originates from the movement and the position of the bodies receiving the blow -- 12. On the percussion of bodies colliding obliquely on a stable plane -- 13. On the percussion of bodies colliding in oblique movements -- 14. On the variety pf percussions carried out by the impetus of a curved and accelerated movement -- 15. On the rebound which follows the percussion of bodies -- 16. How the impetus is weakened and extinguished in projectiles -- 17. The impetus impressed in any body can be weakened and diminished instantaneously because of its diffusion but it [c]an be completely deleted and annihilated only over some time -- 18. How an impetus impressed in elastic bodies is slowed down and extinguished -- 19. Why opposite movements annihilate each other and renew themselves in elastic and resilient bodies -- 20. On the flow of impetus and on its magnitude -- 21. Moving bodies are urged at an uniform velocity never to be annihilated -- 22. How can an accelerated movement be generated -- 23. On the natural motive faculty of gravity -- 24. The force of the imptetus of falling heavy bodies is smaller than any impulsive force impressed by a projectile -- 25. Digression on the reason why a magnet attracts iron -- 26. All solid bodies are not absolutely hard but they are either fluent or soft or elastic -- 27. On the comparison between the energy of percussion and the compressive force of gravity -- 28. Explanation of the problem and enquiry on the actual causes of this wonderful effect -- 29. The energy of percussion is greater than the compressive force of any finite heavy body -- 30. On the shaking of bodies -- 31. More accurate investigation of the cause of vibration -- 32. The smallest motive force of any body, by a slow movement, can impress and increase in a huge body a velocity greater than that at which the impeller moved -- 33. The impetus of a percussion cannot be measured by the simple energy of gravity -- 34. Examination of the question 19 in the Mechanics of Aristotle -- Answer to R.P.F. Stephano Degli Angeli -- Answer to Sir Michelo Angelo Ricci.
