Force is an action between two bodies, either causing...other than muscular tension is inferred from their effects. The notion of balance is first obtained by sensation; for theforces exerted by voluntary muscles...

...spring not there, the force of gravitation would cause the apple to fall. Professor Rankine calls force "an action between two bodies, either causing or tending to cause change in their relative rest or motion ;" and if the act of trying can be called an action, my definition is equivalent to his. For the benefit...
