The Life and Times of Issac Newton In 1642 on Christmas Day an English mathematician‚ astronomer‚ and natural philosopher was born in Woolsthorpe‚ Lincolnshire‚ England. Baby Isaac was born so premature that is was said he could fit into a quart pot. Newton’s father who was a yeoman farmer died a few moths before Isaac was born. It was said that Isaac was to carry on the paternal farm when old enough. When Isaac was three his mother‚ Hannah Ayscough‚ married a clergyman from North Witham‚ the

Contribution of Isaac Newton to the Scientific Revolution The beginning of the 17th century was a period of drastic change in Europe as many started to approach science. This dawning of modern science introduced new concepts in the understanding of the physical world‚ and brought along a new stream of “natural philosophers” () including Sir Isaac Newton. The scientific revolution was not marked by any single change‚ but rather various new ideas from different philosophers‚ including Newton‚ helped revolutionize

Research in Motion Porter’s Five Force Porter’s Five Force Model There are some different approaches available when measuring the profitability in a market‚ or industry. I choose to use the model by Michael E. Porter‚ where the profitability potential of an industry‚ described as the long run return on investment‚ is reliant on the degree of competition in the selected industry. The five forces that Porter mentions are; threat of entry‚ supplier power‚ buyer power‚ threat of substitutes and industry

Simple Harmonic Motion Ethan Albers Case Western Reserve University‚ Department of Physics Cleveland‚ OH 44106 Abstract: In this lab‚ my partner and I observed oscillations that were translational and rotational. The two forms we studied must have a form of a restoring force that is proportional to the displacement of the object from its point of equilibrium. This produces the harmonic motion which this lab wants. At small and big amplitudes we measured/observed the translational oscillation

Shanise Hawes 04/04/2012 Simple Harmonic Motion Lab Introduction: In this two part lab we sought out to demonstrate simple harmonic motion by observing the behavior of a spring. For the first part we needed to observe the motion or oscillation of a spring in order to find k‚ the spring constant; which is commonly described as how stiff the spring is. Using the equation Fs=-kx or‚ Fs=mg=kx; where Fs is the force of the spring‚ mg represents mass times gravity‚ and kx is the spring constant

Term 3 Uniform Circular Motion When a body moves in a circular path with a constant speed‚ it is said to undergo uniform circular motion. Although the speed is constant‚ velocity is continually changing‚ since it is constantly changing its direction of motion. Centripetal V V ac ac Acceleration is directed towards the centre of the circle and is therefore called “centripetal acceleration.” ac =v^2r ac =v^2r If T is the time taken for one revolution then: V = 2πrT ac =v^2r
