Not only did he create calculus (a major branch of mathematics that is still used today) but he also described universal gravitation and the 3 laws of motion. His theory of universal gravity also helped to prove heliocentrism, which is the model of Earth and other planets orbiting the sun. This disproved many religions and traditional beliefs. Newton ideas

    Life is full of mysteries, there is so much that is unknown even within ourselves. Throughout human existence there has been a lot of things left uncertain and unanswered. One of the biggest discoveries uncovered has something to do with our thoughts/mind and it goes by “the law of attraction”. The law of attraction states that our thoughts, whether it's consciously or unconsciously, determine the reality of our lives based on what we put our focus on “you get what you think about; your thoughts

    "Hold on Jack, we're being sucked down by the planet's gravitational pull." "Give it more power, Jess." “I already have it at full power, there isn't any more to give.” “I'm gonna engage the FTL, maybe that'll break us free!” "That might tear us apart if you engage the FTL." "I don't think we have a choice, Jack!" If we do nothing we might not make it out of here. Why don't we turn it towards the planet and try to land instead. I already sent out the distress message and activated the beacon

    Gravity is responsible for a number of things such as our weight, rainfall, the turning of the planets, and why objects fall. Proven already, that if an object is in free fall the only force active is gravitational force. And when force is thrown into the mix and acts on gravity it cause an object to accelerate or speed up. Hence the purpose of this lab is to prove that an object under the impact of gravity will accelerate at a constant rate. Acceleration will also be measured and compared to its

    speakers, the cars of the roller coaster will shoot up a short hill, only to find a sudden halt in the hill, causing the riders to propel backwards down the track they just came, with no warning. Our engineers relied heavily on Newton’s First Law of Motion, which claims that an object moving at a constant velocity will keep moving at that velocity unless a net force acts on it. For the lyrics to correspond with the song lyrics and the scene of the movie (which involves a ladder), the designers wanted

    at force. Force can be defined as the “strength or energy exerted or brought to bear which causes motion or a change in motion.” There are multiple forces acting on the ball throughout the course of a match. The main force being exerted comes from the racket which gets its energy from the player. Other forces acting
