Mechanical laws of motion were applied very early for better understanding anthropomorphic action as suggested in advance by Newton For from hence are easily deduced the forces of machines, which are compounded of wheels, pullies, levers, cords, and weights, ascending directly or obliquely, and other mechanical powers; as also the force of the tendons to move the bones of animals .
