The Supreme Sir Isaac Newton Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1727) was the greatest and most prominent physicist to ever walk upon the Earths surface, yet we have the Anti-Newtonians who say that Sir Isaac Newton should not be considered the greatest / most influential physicist of the past or present. However, in Dr. Michael Harts book The 100 Most Influential People in History Sir Isaac Newton is listed as the second most substantial person in history with Muhammad being the first, and Jesus Christ being the third. Surely it must take a great man to reach a status higher than Jesus Christ! So what was it that Sir Isaac Newton did to elevate himself above the other physicists of yesterday and today such as: Thales of Miletus (625-545 B. C), Tycho Brahe (1546-1601), Galileo Galilei (1564-1642), Albert Einstein (1879-1955), James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879), and Richard Feynman (1918-1988) The answer to this question can be found within Sir Isaac Newtons gathering of the laws and theories of the physicists before him that were to be used in the development of his own three laws of motion. These three laws paved the way for the physicists of the future, and still lie at the heart of almost every modern day physics problem.
Michael Write the author of Isaac Newton The Last Sorcerer states It is no exaggeration to say that almost everything we do in the modern world is based upon Sir Isaac Newtons enormous achievements and that this position is justified by his un parallel contributions to science. (p. 363) The donations to science that made Sir Isaac Newton the most renowned physicist in history also molded and enhanced mankind’s view of the world around them. Daniel Orange, PhD. , and Gregg Steuben say, The genius of Newtons laws made it possible to predict the behavior of anything mechanical that the eye can see reducing the complex world to a simple machine much like a car, a bike, or an egg beater. Although Sir Isaac Newton died in 1727, his great work continued to advance our knowledge of not only our planets machine like properties, but of the other planetary bodies within our universe.
The Essay on Sir Issac Newton Isaac Motion Book
Sir Isaac Newton Sir Isaac Newton was born on December 25, 1642 in Lincolnshire by Hannah Newton and Isaac Newton Senior. Sir Isaac Newton was a baby who got off as a weak little child grew up to have one of the best minds of all time (Minds Of Science, J. Anderson pg 7). Sir Isaac's first college was Trinity College at Cambridge. He wasn't as successful in his first few years at this college ...
In George Gamow’s book The Great Physicists from Galileo to Einstein It is written The development of Newtons work carried out by great mathematicians of the 18 th and 19 th centuries have allowed us to calculate with great precision the motion of the planets of the solar systems under the action of mutual gravitational attraction. (p. 62) So as one can see, Sir Isaac Newtons guidance helped us to achieve the last 600 years of scientific enlightenment, and as Alexander Pope once said Nature and natures laws lay hid in the night: God said, Let NEWTON BE and all was light. Not really a essay. More or less it is a short paragraph I wrote for developmental english..
