Sir Isaac Newton Life and Accomplishments Group 4 Octavio Aguilera Juan Aldana Alex Serna Table of Contents The Beginning of His Life Early Life Reflecting Telescope Calculus Motion and Gravity First Law of Motion Second Law of Motion Third Law of Motion Force Comets Principia and Opticks A Great Man References The beginning of his life Born on January 4, 1643 In Woolsthorpe, Lincolnshire, England Where he was raised by his Grandmother Early life Newton received a bachelor’s degree at Trinity College, Cambridge in 1665 The next two years Newton returned home where he came up with most of his discoveries. He returned to Trinity College in 1667, where he became a professor of mathematics in 1669. Reflecting Telescope In 1668 Newton made the first reflecting telescope Light is collected and refracted from a curved mirror Far superior from refracting telescopes because the image did not become blurry Calculus Newton invented Calculus in 1669, but didn’t publish his work until 1704 Calculus is divided into two parts Differential and Integral Calculus Differential Calculus: Deals with the change in rate of objects Integral Calculus: Deals with measuring quantities and dividing into smaller ones Motion and Gravity Newton wondered why objects fell to earth while sitting under an apple tree he saw an apple fall in front of him Although many believe this story is untrue That is when Newton came up with the three laws of motion First Law of Motion A body continues in a state of rest in a straight line if it is not acted upon by forces. Second Law of Motion When a force acts on a body it produces an acceleration, which is proportional to the magnitude of the force Third Law of Motion If body A exerts a force on body B, body B always exerts an equal and opposite force on body A Force Newton believed that when an object goes around another there are two balanced forces. Centripetal force: pulls the revolving object towards the pivoting point Centrifug
