Why did Newton make great achievements in science? How did he become a great scientist from an ordinary person? To answer these questions, we can't help thinking of several stories about his hard study and hard work.
"I must pass him!"
When it comes to Newton, people may think that he must have been a "prodigy" and "genius" when he was a child, with extraordinary intelligence. In fact, Newton's childhood was thin and his mind was not smart. When I was studying in my hometown, I didn't study hard and got poor grades in my class. But he has a wide range of interests and his game skills are higher than those of ordinary children.
Question 2: What was Newton's character? Newton-a great scientist, a poor man.
As we all know, Newton was a great physicist. He discovered three famous laws of physics: the law of inertia, the law of mass acceleration, and the law of action and reaction. Until today, Newton's three laws of physics can be found in any set of middle school physics textbooks. He also discovered the law of gravity. The binomial theorem in high school mathematics is also called Newton. There is one of the most famous formulas in advanced mathematics, which is called Newton Leibniz formula. Newton's name is not unknown. I'm afraid no one will doubt that Newton is a great physicist in modern times.
But this great physicist has a bad personality. Judging from the limited materials that have been disclosed, this great physicist used despicable means against another scholar, Leibniz, in order to compete for the right to invent the basic formula of calculus. Let's take a look at the relevant historical facts first:
Leibniz was born in 1646 and died in 17 16. He was born in a scholarly family in Leipzig, Germany, and is a well-read scholar in Germany. Leibniz created calculus independently, and he invented many calculus symbols used now. Leibniz published a paper on calculus for the first time in 1673- 1676. His initial formation of calculus is reflected in his paper published in Teachers' Magazine in 1684+00: a wonderful calculation type for finding the maximum and minimum. This article is regarded as the earliest published calculus document.
Newton revealed his basic idea of calculus-flow number in Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy published three years later than Leibniz! I don't know whether it was to tell the world that he invented calculus a long time ago or for other reasons. In this book (the first and second editions), he wrote: Ten years ago, in my correspondence with the most outstanding geometricians G and W Leibniz, I indicated that I already knew the method of determining the maximum and minimum, such as tangent method, but I concealed this method in my correspondence. The most outstanding scientist wrote back. He also described his method, which was almost the same as mine except for words and symbols.
Even if what Newton said is true, he began to study calculus ten years earlier than Leibniz, but his thoughts were not formed and his academic achievements were not published. From the patent point of view, there is no doubt that Leibniz does have the invention right of calculus.
However, things took a turn for the worse. The invention of calculus shocked the scientific community, greatly promoted the development of mathematics itself and science and technology, and also changed Newton's mentality. In order to compete for the invention of calculus, Newton organized a large-scale exposure and criticism movement against Leibniz, accusing Leibniz of plagiarizing his scientific research results. Newton deleted Leibniz admitted in the first and second editions of Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy (the third edition and later editions) and found a similar method. He also described his method, which was almost the same as mine except for words and symbols.
Newton was then the president of the Royal Society of Science and the chief professor of mathematics at Cambridge University. He enjoys high prestige in the scientific community. Many people would rather believe this great man than objectively analyze the ins and outs of things and blindly join the crusade against Leibniz. Leibniz's later years were very miserable. In the last seven years of his life, he lived painfully in an argument about the right of invention imposed on him by others. Unmarried all his life, he died alone on June171June 165438+ 10/4 amid the accusations of the world.
Newton's meanness lies in his command and execution of the crusade against Leibniz. After decades of investigation, historians found that many articles attacking Leibniz were written by Newton himself under a pseudonym, and some articles were written by him at the behest of others. After investigation, historians also confirmed that Leibniz invented calculus independently and published it first, and finally Leibniz was innocent. Really: a thousand years of fame, ten thousand years of fame, what's good? When you die, you're gone.

Question 3: Who is Newton? What about Newton alone? Newton, a great British physicist, was born on February 25th, 1642 in Woolsop village, Lincolnshire. When he was 0/2 years old, he showed interest in experiments and mechanical inventions, and made water clocks, windmills and sundials himself. He became an excellent student. At the age of 27, he became a professor of mathematics at Cambridge University .46338.666666666664 1669 was elected as a member of the royal society.
From 1685 to 1687, with the encouragement and sponsorship of astronomer Harley, Newton published the famous mathematical principles of natural philosophy, made historic discoveries-laws of motion and gravity, and made great contributions to the development of modern natural science. In 2003, he was elected president of the Royal Society. 36860 . 68686868686
Newton not only made great contributions in mechanics, but also made great contributions in other aspects. In mathematics, he discovered binomial theorem and founded calculus. In optics, the dispersion experiment of solar light was carried out, which proved that white light is composed of monochromatic light, studied the theory of color, and invented the reflecting telescope.
Question 4: What kind of person do you think Newton is? What should we learn from him? I like to observe and think. When an apple hits my head, I think of gravity.
Question 5: Which country did Newton come from, Isaac? Sir Newton, born in England in 1642, is a great physicist, astronomer and mathematician in the history of modern science and technology in the world. He founded astronomy because he discovered the law of universal gravitation, mathematics because he put forward binomial theorem and infinite theory, and mechanics because he knew the essence of force. He is an important figure in the long process of human understanding of nature, and his scientific contribution has become a milestone in human understanding of nature. He founded scientific optics and achieved fruitful results in optical research. He can be called a great man in the history of modern science and technology only by his contribution to optical research. Newton studied light by removing colors and distorting images in telescopes.
Question 6: Who is Newton? He is regarded as a pioneer of modern science and has made great contributions to science. His three great achievements ―― the analysis of light, the law of universal gravitation and calculus laid the foundation for the development of modern science. Why did Newton make great achievements in science? How did he become a great scientist from an ordinary person? To answer these questions, we can't help thinking of several stories about his hard study and hard work. "I must pass him!" When it comes to Newton, people may think that he must have been a "prodigy" and "genius" when he was a child, with extraordinary intelligence. In fact, Newton's childhood was thin and his mind was not smart. When I was studying in my hometown, I didn't study hard and got poor grades in my class. But he has a wide range of interests and his game skills are higher than those of ordinary children. Usually he likes to make mechanical models, such as windmills, waterwheels, sundials and so on. His elaborate water clock has won people's praise for its accurate timing. Sometimes, the way he plays ball is also very strange. One day, he made a lantern and hung it on the tail of a kite. When night falls, the lighted lanterns rise into the air with the help of the rising power of kites. Luminous lanterns flow in the air, and people are frightened and think there is a comet. Nevertheless, he is often discriminated against because of his poor academic performance. At that time, the hierarchy of British feudal society was very serious. Students who study well in primary and secondary schools may discriminate against those who study poorly. There was a game between classes. When everyone was in high spirits, a good student kicked Newton and called him an idiot. Newton's mind was angry at this * * *. He thought, we are all students. Why should I be bullied by him? I must pass him! From then on, Newton made up his mind to study hard. He gets up early and goes to bed late. Every minute counts. He studies hard and thinks hard. After studying hard, Newton's academic performance improved continuously, and soon surpassed the classmate who had bullied him, ranking first in the class. Fun under the fence There are many famous scientists in the world, and their families are very poor. On the road to success, they all fought tenaciously against the difficult situation. Newton's childhood was also very sympathetic. Newton was born in 19 12 in the home of an ordinary farmer in England. Newton's father died shortly before he was born. Mother remarried when he was two years old. When Newton was fourteen, his stepfather died unfortunately and his mother returned to her hometown. Newton was forced to drop out of school and go home to help her farm. Mother wants to train him to make a living independently and let him manage agricultural products. How reluctant a studious child is to leave his beloved school! He cried several times, but his mother never changed her mind. Finally, she had to study business against her will. Every morning, he and an old servant go to a big town more than ten miles away to do business. Newton disliked doing business very much, and entrusted all the affairs to an old servant, but he secretly went to a place to study. As time went on, Newton became more and more disgusted with business, and all he liked was reading. Later, Newton simply stopped going to town to do business, and asked the old servant to go alone. Afraid that his family would find out, he went out with the old servant every day, stopped halfway and studied under a fence. Whenever the old servant comes back in the afternoon, we will go home together. In this way, day after day, the reading life under the fence is also very enjoyable. One day, he was reading happily under the fence when his uncle saw him pass by. When my uncle saw this scene, he was very angry and shouted at him for doing nothing. Took Newton's book. My uncle was moved when he saw that he was reading a math book with various marks painted on it. My uncle hugged Newton and said excitedly, "son, just develop according to your ambition." Your right path should be learning. " After returning home, my uncle tried to persuade Newton's mother to let Newton abandon business and go to school. With the help of his uncle, Newton returned to school as he wished. Studying and calculating the wind time in a storm is the same for people, and the amount given to people is the same, but people use time in different ways and gain different knowledge. When Newton was sixteen years old, his understanding of mathematics was still superficial, and he didn't even understand the advanced knowledge of mathematics. "Knowledge lies in accumulation, and cleverness comes from learning". Newton was determined to climb the peak of mathematics by his own efforts. Under the unfavorable conditions of poor foundation, Newton can correctly understand himself and make progress despite difficulties. He relearned the basic knowledge and basic formulas and made solid progress step by step. He has finished learning Euclid.
