Q1. Outline the historical development of the models of the universe from the time of Aristotle to the time of Newton. Aristotle: Geocentric model of the universe involved a series of 56 concentric spheres to which celestial objects were attached. The Earth was not in motion as the stars showed no measureable parallax. Each planet‚ the Sun‚ and the Moon were in their own sphere and the stars were positioned on a larger sphere surrounding all the others. Ptolemy: Geocentric model of the universe

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

Isaac Newton was a brilliant man who discovered things about our world that no other scientist before him thought of. He had a rough childhood‚ and struggled through school until his mother pulled him out to help her work. It wasn’t until he decided to go back when he discovered that he truly had a gift. He pursued his education‚ and became one of the reason we live the way we do today. His knowledge of mathematics and science is unbelievable to some people to this day. Perhaps‚ he is one of the
