The mathematical principles of Newton's natural philosophy not only summarized the basic laws of mechanics, but also found the mathematical methods to prove these laws, which laid the foundation for mathematics to become the language to describe the movement of the universe.

A Brief Introduction to Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy

1, Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy is the masterpiece of the first scientific revolution, and it is considered as the greatest scientific work ever, which has exerted great influence in physics, mathematics, astronomy, philosophy and other fields.

This book is divided into five parts. The first part is "definition", which gives the definitions of quantity, time, space and centripetal force of matter. The second part is "axiom or law of motion", which contains three famous laws of motion.

3. The following contents are divided into three volumes. The titles of the first two volumes are the same, both of which are On the Motion of Objects. The first volume studies the motion of objects in free space without resistance. Many propositions involve determining the motion state (orbit, speed, running time, etc. ) A stressed object is stressed by a known force, and its stress is determined by its motion state.

4. The second volume studies the motion, fluid mechanics and wave theory of objects with given resistance.

The title of the third volume of this book is On the System of the Universe.

Second, a brief introduction to Newton

Isaac newton (1643— 1727) is a British scientist. Newton was born in a peasant family in Walsop, a small town in Lincolnshire, England. 1727, isaac newton died and was buried in Westminster Abbey.
