Sir Isaac Newton was‚ among many other things‚ a physicist‚ mathematician and astronomer. Newton was born was born 3 months after the death of his father‚ on January 4th of 1643 in Woolsthorpe‚ Lincolnshire‚ England. Known commonly as the Father of Modern Science‚ Sir Newton’s discoveries were plenty and spanned over many different concentrations in science that he most certainly deserves the title. He helped develop the field of calculus as well as the laws of light and color and the laws of gravity

Circular Motion and Gravitation Circular motion is everywhere‚ from atoms to galaxies‚ from flagella to Ferris wheels. Two terms are frequently used to describe such motion. In general‚ we say that an object rotates when the axis of rotation lies within the body‚ and that it revolves when the axis is outside it. Thus‚ the Earth rotates on its axis and revolves about the Sun. When a body rotates on its axis‚ all the particles of the body revolve – that is‚ they move in circular paths about

Charles Thomas Newton – The Successful Career of a 19th Century British Archaeologist Sir Charles Thomas Newton (1816 – 1894) was a 19th century British archaeologist who served the British government from various diplomatic posts across the Mediterranean and as the first appointed keeper of Greek and Roman antiquities at the British Museum. His work record as an archaeologist included excavations at various sites in what is today Turkey and Greece. These excavations led to his crowning achievement

of Celestial Motion Through Aristotle’s crystalline spheres‚ the Copernican Revolution‚ and Newton’s understanding of Kepler’s laws of planetary motion; it becomes clear that mathematics was the driving force that guided us through the evolution of celestial motion. One of the first to theorize the motion of both terrestrial and celestial bodies was Aristotle around 330BCE. To this philosopher‚ the universe had always been eternally geocentric. On Earth the concept of motion was‚ not only

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

ANALYSIS Physics is not all about the Resolution of Forces and Kinematics. One of the topic in Physics is Projectile Motion. Projectile Motion is a special case of two-dimensional motion. Gravity is the only considered external force acting on it while an object is airborne. Projectile is the moving body in this kind of motion. It refers to any object thrown‚ launched or otherwise projected so that once released‚ if air resistance is neglected‚ its path is affected only by the Earth’s gravity. As

Woolsthorpe‚ England‚ January 4‚ 1643‚ Hannah Newton became the proud mother of a small baby boy. The boy’s father had died three months prior to his son’s birth. So to honor him‚ Mrs. Newton named her son Isaac in remembrance of his father‚ Isaac Newton Sr. However‚ she never dreamed her son‚ descended from the humble farmer‚ would one day become one of the greatest scientific minds in history. After raising young Isaac for three years‚ Mrs. Newton decided to marry Barnebous Smith‚ a wealthy

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

against slavery due to the serious moral and ethical dilemma associated with the practice of slavery. Leading statesmen who oppose the old constitution in the United State of America‚ argued that the enslavement of the African was in violation of the laws of nature; and that is was wrong in principle‚ socially‚ morally and politically. The slave trade at the time was so profitable for the people that were involved in it’s practiced‚ the Abolitionist‚ were opposed by a pro-slavery West Indian lobby.
