History: Now a days we know newton as only inventor of ‘g’ < acceleration due to gravity >. But we are never ever interested in his dark secrets. He was not only english physicist but also a mathematician and a natural philosopher. Sir Issac Newton was born on 25 December 1642. 3 months before his birth‚ his father died and her mother remarried. In June 1661‚ he was admitted to Trinity College‚ Cambridge. he was awarded a scholarship in 1664. Revolution of earth: Newton studied Keplar’s law of

One of newton’s accomplishments was the designing and constructing of the reflecting telescope in 1668. Newton made discoveries in optics‚ motion and mathematics.Through this invention isaac newton highly praised. He also used the invention to help him come up with his theory of light. Newton theorized that white light was a composite of

Sir Isaac Newton was famously known for the formulation of the law of universal gravitation. The discovery and practical application of his formula in science were groundbreaking and incredibly helpful in understanding questions that plague mankind for centuries. Along with being a famous mathematician‚ he was also known for his studies in physics and astronomy. In the era he was alive‚ he was part of the Scientific Revolution. A period in history was the emergence of modern science took place. Science

Prior to the scientific revolution‚ ideas were dominated by the church. Religion dominated science and was a superior source of knowledge. When science contradicted the church‚ it was wrong. This clash was seen with the claim of the earth not being the center of the universe‚ but the sun. The church declared this as heresy

I personally think that Isaac Newton is without a doubt‚ a hero. He is a hero because of his scientific achievements and life events. He found a way to split white light and find its color contents‚ he discovered then extended his three laws of motion that frame the world of physics‚ and for crying out loud‚ the man invented calculus. Not just that‚ these examples aren’t even including all of his very many scientific achievements‚ inventions‚ or founds. For starters‚ Isaac Newton’s theory of “fluxions”

Isaac Newton once said‚ “I have stood on the shoulders of giants.” Explain this statement and explain how Newton was the product of time and circumstance. When Isaac Newton said‚ “I have stood on the shoulders of giants‚” he demonstrated that he knew his place in the scientific community. In the relay race of astronomic science‚ Newton was the last of the runners to be passed the baton‚ and he‚ adding to the work of many great scientific minds before him‚ sprinted the home stretch. Newton understood
