Abstract
The velocity of a body falling freely to Earth increases with time, i.e. the velocity of fall depends on the time. The pressure of a gas maintained at a constant temperature depends on its volume. The periodic time of a simple pendulum depends on its length. Such dependencies between observed quantities are frequently encountered in physics and engineering and they lead to the formulation of natural laws.
