Abstract
[80. All fluid wherein a body moves is elastic or non-elastic. I called elastic fluid one whose parts can be contracted so they occupy a lesser space than before their compression, and reciprocally they dilate so that they occupy a larger space than before their expansion. I called non-elastic fluid one whose parts can be neither contract nor dilate, but always occupy the same space, whatever the force be that compresses them.]
