Sir Issac Newton
 English physicist and mathematician
 Newton’s laws of motion
 Application to dynamics
 Formulated classic theories of mechanics and optics
 Invented calculus
 Formulated theory of sound
 Newton’s wave theory
Books
 Mathematical principles of Natural Philosophy or the principia
 Corpuscular theory of light
Early Life
 Newton was born on January 4, 1643 (December 25,
1642)
 From Woolsthrope-by-Colsterworth, Lincolnshire,
England
 Was born prematurely
 He was born 3 months after his father’s death
 He was raised by his grandparents
 Came from a family of farmers
 He was a mathematician, astronomer, physicist, &
philosopher
Education
 From the age of 12- 17, Newton studied at The King’s
School, Grantham
 At the original school’s building you can see his signature
in the library window sill
 He was removed from school , moved back with his mother,
she wanted him to become a farmer
 He hated farming
 Henry Stokes, master of The King’s School persuaded his
mom to let Newton further his education
 Newton became the top ranked student
 He saw the developments of his theories of calculus, optics
and the law of gravitation.
Calculus
 Newton started developing calculus in1666, but never got around to publish in that time.
 He got in a dispute with Gottfried Leibniz, (who had also been working his methods of
calculus.
 Newton & Leibniz share the credit of developing the integral calculus.
 He demonstrated the binomial theorem, Newton’s method of approximating the roots of
constant.
Optics
 From 1670 – 1672 he lectured in optics
 Investigated the refraction of light
 Discovered that light had a spectrum of colors
 He build the first refracting telescope, instead of
using lenses, he used a curved mirror
 He invented the Newtonian telescope
NEWTON’S
CORPUSCULAR THEORY
OF LIGHT
 Proposed by Isaac Newton in 1600’s
 Light is made of particles called “corpuscles”
 Could explain rectilinear propagation, ray model of light,
reflection, refraction ; all observed in 17th century .
 Predicted light would travel faster in water than in air
