"Body Forces" arise from conditions that result in every particle of the body experiencing an element of the total body force, e.g., if a body has mass, a gravity force will be acting on every particle in it while it is in a gravitational field; similarly, iron and nickel bodies will be subject to a magnetic body force when placed in a magnetic field. 1, record 1, English, - body%20force

On constate la présence de forces massiques lorsque chaque particule d'un corps est soumise à un élément de la force massique totale. Par exemple, si un corps a une masse, chacune de ses particules subira une force de gravité lorsqu'il est placé dans un champ gravitationnel. De même, les corps en fer et en nickel placés dans un champ magnétique subissent une force massique magnétique. 1, record 1, French, - force%20massique
