Isaac Newton is considered to be one of the greatest theoretical and scientific minds of our world. The year that Galileo died‚ Isaac newton was born in Woolsthorpe Manor‚ his family’s estate‚ in Lincolnshire‚ England on January 4th‚ 1643 as a premature baby. Isaac was very frail and sickly. The women and housemaids didn’t even hurry to bring medicine to help him because nobody expected him to survive. But miraculously he did survive. Isaac’s father‚ Isaac Newton Sr.‚ had died few months before his

be home to a planet due to Jupiters gravitational pull. It is now believed that asteroid are planetesimals broken down by collision‚ also known as a minute planet. A planetesimal is a body that could or did come together with many others under gravitation to form a planet. This theory explains why the silicate rich asteroids are concentrated in the inner belts‚ and the carbonaceous type asteroids are in the outer belts. Astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi discovered asteroids in 1801 while making

The Scientific Revolution was a big change throughout Europe; it changed the medieval views of the world. It started with medieval views as the framework‚ The Renaissance stimulating science‚ navigational problems needing new instruments‚ and scientific methodology. This seemed to be a big impact on the world. Religiously‚ this challenged some views from the Bible. In Philosophy‚ It started a new way of thinking‚ thus shows both were impacted by the Scientific Revolution. Religious: .Nicolaus

yourself how a roller coaster works? Would roller coasters safely run without the knowledge that physics offers us? The answer is no. Roller coasters are driven by physics; it mobilizes and gives its riders amusement through forces such as inertia‚ gravitation‚ and centripetal forces and utilizes different types of energies such as potential and kinetic energy. Physics is what makes roller coasters safe and effective. It is not only the high speed of the trains of a roller coaster that makes the ride

Biography Franz Anton Mesmer Mesmer is a physician of the German descent who created therapeutics‚ also known as mesmerism. Hypnotism and its practice was the forerunner. In the year 1775‚ animal gravitation was created and revised by the genius himself. This theory was compared to that of animal magnetism. Animal magnetism allowed fluid not able to be seen inside the human act as magnets.His thought was that the tidal influences of all 9 universes can operate in a force that relates to
