This law is also called the law of inertia.
It is a big part of physics today and helps explain how things move. ]]> 2018-04-13 14:34:09 UTC https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251577015 clai5450 https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251578754 States that force is equal to mass times acceleration. This law allows physicists to calculate how objects moved and what force was applied to an object. ]]> 2018-04-13 14:37:17 UTC https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251578754 clai5450 https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251579884 The third law is that every action force is matched with a force equal in magnitude acting in the opposite direction.  The law allows people to understand things in the world around them, such as why when something is hit with a hammer, the hammer bounces back.]]> 2018-04-13 14:39:25 UTC https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251579884 clai5450 https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251581210 One of Isaac Newton's most famous achievements were his three laws of motion. They are taught around the world to teach people about the forces they encounter every day. His laws were first published in a book called Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica. It was published in 1687.]]> 2018-04-13 14:42:09 UTC https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251581210 clai5450 https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251583914 It is a well known story that Newton "discovered" gravity when an apple from a tree fell and hit him on the head. Although there is no proof of this exact story, it is said that an apple falling is what lead him to explore the concept of gravity. His three laws of motion are what helped him solidify his research on the force of gravity. This research is what lead to him figuring out how planets stayed in orbit around the sun, how the tides on Earth worked and many more discoveries about the mysterious universe he lived in.]]> 2018-04-13 14:47:22 UTC https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251583914 clai5450 https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251587598 Through his research on gravity, Newton made a formula that stated that the force of gravity between two spherical objects was equal to the product of the two masses of the objects and a gravitational constant, divided by the squared distance between the objects centers.]]> 2018-04-13 14:54:27 UTC https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251587598 clai5450 https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251590752 2018-04-13 14:59:58 UTC https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251590752 clai5450 https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251591454 After all of his incredible work in the physics field, Newton was honoured with his own SI unit.

- He died at age 84 due to stomach issues
- His father died before he was born and so his childhood was full of moving between stepfather's houses and living with other relatives. This led him to having anxieties about not being good enough and doubting his work.

And many more in the science community during his career]]> 2018-04-15 02:03:49 UTC https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251836528 clai5450 https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251836536 Newton attended many different schools in his life, the following list is in order
-King's School in Grantham
-His mom  made him drop out to become a farmer but he didn't enjoy the trade so he went back to King's to finish his education
-University of Cambridge's Trinity College...encouraged by his uncle, he participated in advanced sciences, math and a bachelors or art

-His three laws of motion (still taught in schools today)
-The law of universal gravitation (helps scientists understand the universe)
-His revolutionary work with light and colour
- Many other things that I couldn't even begin to include in a single padlet.]]> 2018-04-15 02:04:07 UTC https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251836542 clai5450 https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251837497 Some of Isaac Newton's most important work was with optics.
He theorized that light was made up of tiny particles. This was controversial because some more well known physicists thought is was made up of waves. He denied such theories and spent some time researching light in 1665 and 1666 and it's properties. He made many discoveries about colour and how light is more complex then originally thought. The refraction of white light to make rainbows.]]> 2018-04-15 02:27:02 UTC https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251837497 clai5450 https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251837509 In conclusion Sir Isaac Newton was one of the most influential physicists the world has ever seen. He did some amazing work and his concepts are still current today. Physics students all over the world are taught his principals. To accredit all his work he was even given a unit that is used daily to measure forces of all types. Newton's work and legacy has only been touched on in this padlet, but one thing is for sure, he was a brilliant scientist. ]]> 2018-04-15 02:27:16 UTC https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251837509 clai5450 https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251838800 2018-04-15 03:00:28 UTC https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/251838800 clai5450 https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/252136230 2018-04-16 13:37:48 UTC https://padlet.com/clai5450/gs3fjbde03ws/wish/252136230
