- I am aware of some Objections to be made, whether to some Points of the Process, or to some of the Suppositions. But I saw not well how to wave it, without making the Computation much more perplex'd. And in a Matter so nice, and which must depend upon Physical Observations, 'twill be hard to attain such Accuracy, as not to stand in need of some Allowances.
- Somewhat might have been farther added to direct the Experiments suggested at ¶ 21, and 31. But that may be done at leisure, after deliberation had, which way to attempt the Experiment.
- The like is to be said of the different resistance which different Bodies may meet with in the same Medium, according to their different Gravities (extensively or intensively consider'd) and their different Figures and Positions in Motion.
