Isaac Newton Not many scientists have ever discovered as much as Isaac Newton. Isaac Newton was born unhealthy on January 4, 1643, in Woolsthorpe, Lincolnshire, England. He has been an inspiration to many premature children from his great works on Physics and Mathematics. He was a physicist, mathematician, and was famous for his laws of gravitation. Due to the discoveries of Isaac Newton in optics, motion, and mathematics, he was known as one of the smartest person of the scientific revolution in the 17th Century.
Ordinarily everyone has an unplanned life, so did Isaac Newton. His father died three months before he was born. At the age of three, his mother remarried and sent Isaac

Due to Isaac Newton’s inventions and discoveries, we are using the theory of newton’s laws of motion in today’s life. His discovery in Calculus has brought many methods which helped many solve mathematical problems. His discoveries in-laws of motion and gravitation have also brought the contents for modern physics as well. Without his great discoveries, most of the solving of math calculations would be impossible in physics and Mathematics. “If I have ever made any valuable discoveries, it has been owing more to patient attention, than to any other talent” (Isaac Newton). Consequently, after Isaac Newton’s death in 1727, people still remember him and his works. His life was full of discoveries and has set a great path for many scientists. Having a bad childhood didn’t affect the later successful part of his life. Isaac Newton’s inventions and discoveries will always be helpful for all generations. Sir Isaac Newton was not only a Philosopher but also an Astronomer, Scientist, Physicist, and …show more content…

The general and widespread acceptance of Sir Isaac Newton’s models and laws may often be taken for granted, but this has not always been so. Throughout history, scientists and philosophers have built on each other’s theories to create improved and often revolutionary models. Although Newton was neither the first nor the last to bring major innovations to society, he was one of the most notable ones; many of his contributions are still in use today. With the formulation of his laws of motion, Sir Isaac Newton contributed to the downfall of Aristotelianism and provided a universal quantitative system for approximating and explaining a wide range of phenomena of space and the physics of motion, revolutionizing the study and understanding
There are three laws of motion. Nancy Hall states that Isaac Newton worked in many areas of mathematics and physics. In 1666, when he was 23 years old, he developed the theories of gravitation (2015). Otherwise known as Newton’s first, second, and third Laws of Motion. In agreement with HyperPhysics, “Newton's First Law states that an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force” (HyperPhysics). Newton’s first law can also be recognized as the Law of Inertia. Essentially, what Newton's First Law is stating that objects behave predictably. For instance, a chair is not going to move unless a force is acted upon
Isaac Newton is considered one of the most important philosophies (scientist) in history. One of the biggest accomplishments the newton created was discovering the theory of gravity. Defined in the Principia, his theory about gravity helped to explain the movements of the planets and the Sun. This theory is known today as Newton's law of universal gravitation. Also Newton's created the laws of motion were three fundamental laws of physics that laid the foundation for classical
Newton’s most important work, titled Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica contained his famous laws of motion, as well as new types of maths. Newton

Isaac Newton is an english physicist and mathematician from the United Kingdom. He is most famous for his law of gravitation. Newton played an important role in the evolution of science in the 1700’s, and is why he is considered one of the greatest minds in the 1700’s. He made discoveries in optics, motion, and mathematics. Newton also published a book (Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica), which has been called the single most influential book in all of physics
Newton's discoveries of the laws of gravity, calculus, and the three laws of motion contributed to the success of Scientific
Sir Isaac Newton was the hero of the scientific revolution and his findings quickly propelled the Enlightenment to fruition. Newton was a brilliant mathematician whose theories on gravity changed the world. Necessity is the mother of invention and Newton proved that without question when he implemented or rather invented the use of Calculus to aid him in his attempts to better understand how gravity works. That alone can not be overstated enough to describe the importance of knowledge Newton provided to the world. Nearly
Many people don’t know what Sir Isaac Newton did and why he is important. He is important because he created the three laws of motion. His laws created the basic principles of motion that we study today. Newton wasn’t born important, he came into this world like any other baby on January 4th, 1643. After living a successful life, Newton sadly passed away on March 31st, 1727.
Born on January 4, 1643 in England, Isaac Newton was born to a hopeful family of farmers. After the death of his father, Newton's mother found love again when he was merely three years old. Young and not yet able to comprehend the abandonment, Isaac thought nothing of living with his grandmother after his mother ran off to remarry. Upon his mother's return proceeding the death of her lover, Isaac Newton was withdrawn from King's School, Grantham in Lincolnshire. His mother thought little of his studies and encouraged him to take up farming, just as his father had. After the intervention of the headmaster, Isaac was able to return to the school where he passed his exams and impressed the likes of Trinity College in Cambridge. Were it not for the support of those around him, Newton would not have reached the success he is known for
Isaac Newton was a physicist, mathematician, astronomer, natural philosopher, alchemist, and a theologian in the seventeenth century. He was born on Christmas day, 1642, in Woolsthorpe, England. He did poorly in school as a kid, and even dropped out for a while. But when he was nineteen, he decided to go back to school, and attended Trinity College until graduating four years later. Five years after that, England was at war and there was a terrible plague spreading. Newton was once again attending school at the time, but his school temporarily shut down due to the plague. This gave him lots of free time and during the eighteen months that his school was shut down, Isaac Newton made a handful of incredible discoveries.
The discovery of these laws, laid down a basic foundation for the physics of motion. Newton's three laws of gravity changed the way in which the world was perceived, because of their accuracy in describing many unexplained phenomenons.3 They explained what happens as a result of different variables, but most importantly, they explained why and how these actions happen. Like many of Isaac Newtons ideas and theories, the three laws of motion had a profound impact on the scientific community. The three laws of motions provided an explanation for almost everything in macro physics. Macro Physics is the branch of physics that deals with physical objects large enough to be observed and treated directly.4 This allowed for many new advancements in physics because the foundation had been build for others to develop upon. Isaac Newton published these findings in his revolutionary book “The Principa”. The Principa was revolutionary book because it organized the bulk of his life’s work, More importantly the
Isaac Newton was a scientific genius who helped the world understand many concepts. Isaac Newton is probably most famous for his discovery of the laws of motion which describe gravity for the first time. The laws of motion also described the force of an object depended on two things, mass and acceleration. With Newton’s help the modern world has been able to innovate and invent many things some that during Newton’s time was thought of as impossible. Isaac Newton was a scientific genius who was the first to describe gravity, he wrote three laws of motion, and finally helped modernize the world with the understanding of gravity.
Sir Isaac Newton is one of the most important scientists in history with Albert Einstein, Aristotle, and Galileo. He was born in Woolsthorpe, England on January 4, 1643 and died March 31, 1727 in London, England. During his lifetime Newton discovered and invented many things, while also studying lots of classic philosophers and astronomers. Newton’s wide range of discoveries formed the basis for modern physics. Not only did he give us the three laws of motion, but he also gave us the origins of color and calculus. These discoveries play big roles in our world today.
Sir Isaac Newton once said, “We build too many walls and not enough bridges.” Aside from his countless contributions to the worlds of math and science, this may be his most important quote because it is what he based his life on—building bridges of knowledge. Throughout his life he was devoted to expanding his and others knowledge past previously known realms. Often regarded of the father of calculus, Newton contributed many notable ideas and functions to the world through his creation of calculus and the various divisions of calculus. Namely, Newton built upon the works of great mathematicians before him through their use of geometry, arithmetic and algebra to create a much more complex field that could explain many more processes in
