We consider mechanical systems that admit an invariant of motion that is polynomial in velocity and is of order at most two. We obtain conditions, which the potential of such a system (generalizing the Darboux equation) must satisfy, and a formula that expresses the force function of the system in terms of the kinetic energy and the invariant in case the invariant is regular.
