law of a falling body

"The nature of anything is seldom to be discovered in the thing itself;" it is in its relations to other things that we penetrate into and discern its true nature. According to this general truth, in order to understand the musical scales we require to go back to the system of vibrations. And as the laws of oscillatory and vibratory motions are derived from the law of a falling body; so, in order to understand the system of musical vibrations, we require to go back to the primary laws of mechanics, geometry, and arithmetic." [Scientific Basis and Build of Music, page 15]
