  1. Isaac Newton and Newton’s Laws of Motion Today copy the words in red and underlined.

  2. I. Background Information • Gender: Male • Nationality: English • Birthplace: Woolsthorpe, Lincolnshire, England • Year of Birth: 1642 • Place of Death: London, England • Year of Death: 1727 • Education: Cambridge University to study mathematics

  3. II. Cool Facts about Newton • Originally went to Cambridge to study to be a pastor. • He was born into a poor farming family. His dad died 3 months before he was born. He never got married. • He had lots of trouble remembering names. Most of the time he couldn’t remember his brothers’ names.

  4. III. Knowledge • Isaac Newton contributed many, many inventions and ideas to the world of science. • He is most famous for: • 3 laws of motion • Universal gravitation • Laws for planetmovements • Inventing a new kind of telescope

  5. IV. Newton’s 1st Law of Motion • An object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and direction unless acted on by an unbalanced force.

  6. IV. Newton’s 1st Law of Motion 2. EX: Wear seat belts to avoid hitting the dashboard. • http://www.wisc-online.com/objects/index_tj.asp?objID=TP1202

  7. V. Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion • The acceleration (speeding up or slowing down) of an object depends on the force (push or pull) acting on it and the object’s mass.

  8. 2. The cart accelerates more with a larger force. The cart accelerates less with a smaller mass. http://zonalandeducation.com/mstm/physics/mechanics/forces/newton/newtonLaw2.html

  9. VI. Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion • For every action, there is an equal and oppositereaction. • 2. EX: Air rushes down out of the balloon and the balloon goes up into the air. http://www.allstar.fiu.edu/aero/rocket1a.htm http://www.wonderhowto.com/how-to-demonstrate-newtons-third-law-motion-223910/

  10. VI. Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion

  11. VII. Newton’s Laws for Planets • Newton proved that the planets orbited the Sunbecause of a gravitational pull. • He proved that the tides were caused by the gravitational pull of the moon.

  12. VIII. Changes • Newton’s work challenged the way people thought about the Earth. Until Newton many people still thought the Sunand the planets revolved (moved around) the Earth.
