Isaac Newton is a renowned physicist who made a big impact in world of the scientific method‚ mathematics‚ and even optics. One of his greatest achievements was the creation of calculus. This paper will give insight into things that not many people‚ including myself‚ know before researching Newton. This includes his personality and how it affected the publication of his research‚ his career as a Lucasian professor‚ his fascination with alchemy‚ and Newton’s mental illness in his later years.

discoveries in optics‚ motion‚ and mathematics. His life started off kind of rough but he was able to change that by believing in himself.

Sir Isaac Newton invented the phrase‚ “For every action there is an equal‚ but opposite reaction.” The phrase is from Newton’s Third Law of Physics. However‚ Newton’s phrase can be used in everyday life. In everyday terms the phrase means‚ for every action there is a consequence. One of the most common consequences people receive is a speeding ticket. According to the United States Bureau of Justice 26.4 million Americans were pulled over for speeding in 2013. Speeding is the number one legal offence

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”

There are few things that I realized while reflecting on the life of Isaac Newton and his works. First‚ Isaac Newton became a key figure in the scientific revolution of the seventeenth century and is widely recognized as one of the most influential scientists of all time despite his humble beginnings. This fact made me understand that I can achieve something big in my life regardless of my roots. Newton said that his works were based on previous discoveries. It was an admission that his amazing
