- W2012296909 abstract "IN Prof. Tait's lecture on “force,” which its writer seems to have intended as a model of perspicuity and accuracy, we are told that “we must measure a force by the rate at which it produces change of momentum.” Nothing could be clearer or more satisfactory than this statement. Then Prof. Tait proceeds to tell us what force “is,” and we read—“Force is the rate of change of momentum”—giving to this word “is” the meaning which the so-called metaphysicians give to it; and it seems to me that we might jangle over it for ever, without ever knowing whether this latter statement be true or not; for although we may all agree as to the proper measure of a force, it seems to be more difficult to tell what force “is.” Possibly we might roughly measure the hunger of a man under different circumstances, by determining the number of pounds of beef he would consume, but it would be hardly warranted to say that hunger “is” a certain number of pounds of beef." @default.
