What are other significant breakthroughs brought about by Sir Isaac's work?

Answer 1

Besides his work on universal gravitation (gravity), Newton developed the three laws of motion which form the basic principles of modern physics. His discovery of calculus led the way to more powerful methods of solving mathematical problems. His work in optics included the study of white light and the discovery of the color spectrum. It was his experiments with light that first made him famous.
Just one example of a breakthrough caused by Newton's discoveries is space travel and satellites. The theories and laws that allow scientists to launch spacecraft and put them into orbit were all discovered by Newton. In fact, even though Newton lived in the 1600s, after his discoveries, it was possible to calculate a space shuttle trip to the Moon (even though the technological means of such a trip were not created yet).

Answer 2

The most memorable contribution of Newton was the Laws of Gravitation.

Other major contributions he made to the field of Classical Physics were:

The discovery of spectrum: He allowed sunlight to pass through a prism into a dark chamber onto a white screen. He observed a band of seven colors on the screen. The colors were the same which made up a rainbow viz, violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red. He thus conferred that sunlight or white light was made up of seven colors and the rain droplets in the sky acted as a prism which split sunlight to give the impression of a rainbow.

Rectilinear Propagation of Light: Newton also made a contribution towards proving that light travels in a straight line. He made a pin-hole camera for the first time with a hole on one of the sides of a cardboard box, and a tracing paper on the opposite side. One could see an upside down image of the object in front of the hole. This proved that light travels in a straight line.

The equation for the velocity of sound: Newton also made a major contribution to the calculation of velocity of sound. Since this equation was calculated taking into account that sound waves travel in the form of translational waves, there was a slight anomaly in the results. This equation was later corrected by a scientist named Laplace.

Answer 3

every force has equal and opposite force. this was meant regarding the force of nature.(physics)

i wonder the human brain has the same matter ,so logically thinking no human is inferoior to other.repititon makes the difference.

Answer 4

Isaac newton made fundamental discoveries in physics and mathematics which to a large extent made possible all the scientific progress which followed. So the results of Newton's discoveries are a scientific culture, and all the technology which it has created.

Answer 5

Yes.
