While the generic world remembers the famous
Newton's Law of Gravity and the apple that led to the discovery of the same..,
the scientific world has a lot to cherish from the esteem findings of a top grade scientist named Isaac Newton who was an inspiration to the later times' genius named Einstein for the latter's theory of relativity.
[
Calculus
Newton created a new branch of mathematics called calculus, which is the mathematics of change and integration of physical quantities.
Laws of motion
Three laws that form the basis of modern physics.
Color spectrum
The discovery that white light is made up of a range of colors that can be separated by a prism.
Law of cooling
Newton's law of cooling is a physical law that describes the rate of heat loss of an object to its surroundings. It states that the rate of heat loss is directly proportional to the temperature difference between the object and its surroundings. In other words, the hotter an object is, the faster it will cool down
Reflecting telescope
Newton built the first working reflecting telescope. He discovered that lenses refracted different colors at different angles, which created fuzzy images.
Gravity
Newton's most notable discovery was the theory of gravity. He observed that the same force that causes an apple to fall to the ground also causes the moon to orbit the Earth.
Optics
Newton proposed that light was made of tiny particles called photons.
Binomial theorem
Newton generalized the binomial theorem to any real number.
The Principia
Newton's book The Principia, which translates to Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy, made him famous.
Inertia
Inertia is the tendency of objects in motion to stay in motion, and objects at rest to stay at rest.
Electricity
Newton made early investigations into electricity, and his ideas in Opticks are considered the beginning of the field theory of the electric force.
are a few of his key contributions as listed by Google.
