ViviIsaac newton did not invent the Newton's Cradle. It was actually invented in 1967 by English actor and artist Simon Prebble. The toy demonstrates the principles of conservation of energy and momentum.

Did Isaac Newton make Newton Balls?
I can not tell you why he made it but I can tell you about it. Newton's cradle can be modeled with simple physics and minor errors if it is incorrectly assumed the balls always collide in pairs. If one ball strikes 4 stationary balls that are already touching, the simplification is unable to explain the resulting movements in all 5 balls, which are not due to friction losses. For example, in a real Newton's cradle the 4th has some movement and the first ball has a slight reverse movement. All the animations in this article show idealized action (simple solution) that only occurs if the balls are not touching initially and only collide in pairs.
What book did Isaac Newton make first?
Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica
What things did Sir Isaac Newton work on?
Sir Isaac Newton is best known for his work in physics, particularly his laws of motion and universal gravitation. He also made significant contributions to mathematics, developing calculus independently of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz. Additionally, Newton made advances in optics, studying the properties of light and inventing the reflecting telescope.
What is the motto of Isaac Newton?
only sit under an apple tree if your sure you will make a fascinating scientific discovery I'd heard that the motto of Sir Isaac Newton was: Hypothesis Non Fingo - I frame no hypotheses
How are the works of Galileo and Newton related?
I think that Galileo died during the same year Newton was born. Galileo Also Discovered Intertia Leading Isaac Newton To Make The First Law Of Motion Using What Galileo Had Discovered Hope this helped :)
