He was educated at Trinity College in Cambridge, and resided there from 1661 to 1696 during which time he produced the majority of his work in mathematics. During this time New ton developed several theories, such as his fundamental principles of gravitation, his theory on optics otherwise known as the Lection es Optical, and his work with the Binomial Theorem. This is only a few theories that that Isaac Ne...

The historical perspective of calculus is that people had a problem in finding areas and finding tangent lines. The thing that was discovered to figure these problems out was calculus. Some influential people in the development of calculus were Isaac Newton (1642-1727), and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646-1716). Isaac Newton is c...

Newton's Second And Third Laws Of Motion
409 wordsNewton's law of motion serve as the basis for all of physics despite the fact that all three of them are no more than a few sentences long. Newton's first, second, and third laws all hold implications on the concepts of equilibrium and work. Newton's laws of motion have an effect upon equilibrium situations. An object at equilibrium is either moving at a constant velocity, or stationary. At equilibrium there is no acceleration, no net force, and all of the forces are balanced. Newton's first law...
