Sir Isaac Newton

• Born on December 25, 1642 in Woolsthorpe, England

• Most influential scientist who ever lived• Accomplishments in mathematics, optics, and

physics laid the foundation for modern science and revolutionized the world

• He had a huge impact on theoretical astronomy which he used to predict motion of stars and planets around the sun

• Defined laws of motion & universal gravitation

Newton’s First Law of Motion

Objects at rest stay at rest and objects in motion stay in motion unless acted on by a force.

Newton’s Second Law of Motion

States that an object’s acceleration depends on the mass of the object and the size and direction of the force acting on it.

Newton’s Third Law

States that for every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force
