Handwritten newspaper is another form of newspaper that can be circulated, watched and posted. In school, handwritten newspaper is a good activity form in the second class, which is quite flexible and free. The following is my handwritten newspaper about the history of mathematics. I hope it will help you.
Complete Mathematical Manuscripts: Behind the Great Mathematical Formulas
1971May 15, Nicaragua issued a set of ten stamps of "Ten Mathematical Formulas for Changing the World", and some famous mathematicians selected ten formulas that had a great impact on world development to commend them. These ten formulas not only benefit mankind, but also have typical mathematical beauty, that is, simplicity, harmony and strangeness.
(A) the basic law of finger counting
The "1+ 1=2" stamp is the first stamp in this set, which is the basic formula for human understanding of quantity at the beginning. Human ancestors started from this formula, piling stones, counting shells, counting branches, counting bamboo pieces, then scoring, counting knots, and then creating words, numbers, abacus, calculation, calculator and other counter tools. Everything starts with the basic law of hand index, because people have ten fingers to assist in calculation. Undoubtedly, it is this fact that naturally gave birth to the decimal system that we are familiar with now. The birth of notation and decimal system is a leap in the history of civilization.
(2) Pythagorean Theorem
If the right side of a right triangle is A and B and the hypotenuse is C, then A2+B2=C2, which is the most famous pythagorean theorem in Euclid geometry. It is widely used in mathematics and human practice. Pythagoras, a famous ancient Greek philosopher and mathematician, first proved this theorem abroad, so it is generally called "Pythagoras theorem" abroad.
China knew the relationship of "three strands, four chords and five" in Shang Dynasty, much earlier than Pythagoras. China's proof of Pythagorean Theorem was relatively late, and it was not until the Three Kingdoms period that Zhao Shuang first proved it by area filling method. One of the great influences of Pythagoras theorem is the discovery of irrational numbers. The diagonal length of a square with a side length of 1 is 0, which cannot be expressed by integer or integer ratio, that is, fraction. This discovery denies the Pythagorean school's belief that everything is counted. At that time, people thought that integers and fractions were easy to understand and called them rational numbers, while the newly discovered numbers were called "irrational numbers" because they were not easy to understand, but they existed.
(3) Archimedes lever principle
The third stamp recognizes the mathematical formula F 1X 1=F2X2, where f is the acting force, x is the arm of force and FX is the moment. In principle, as long as the power arm is long enough and the resistance arm is short enough, you can pry a heavy object with a small enough force. To this end, Archimedes said an old saying: "Give me a fulcrum, and I can move the earth". Hehe, you see how confident physicists are! ! ! In addition to the lever principle, Archimedes also discovered the famous law of buoyancy and a large number of geometric theorems, and he was also one of the pioneers of calculus. Known as the "God of Mathematics" by later mathematicians, among the three most important mathematicians in human history, Archimedes is the first, and the other two are Newton and Gauss respectively.
Napier exponent and logarithmic formula
The logarithmic relationship is Napier formula, where e = 2.7 1828. The inventor of logarithm is Baron Napier, an amateur mathematician in Scotland. From the age of 44, after 20 years of research on large number calculation technology, he finally invented logarithm independently. In 2004,1665438+in 2004, he published his masterpiece "The Wonderful Law of Logarithms", and the amazing invention of logarithmic tables quickly spread throughout the European continent. Galileo made a grand speech: "Give me time, space and logarithm, and I can create a universe." Logarithmic tables have been widely used by mathematicians, accountants, navigators and scientists for centuries. Logarithm and exponent have become the essence of mathematics, which is what every middle school student must learn.
(5) Newton's law of universal gravitation
The fifth stamp immediately reminds people of the well-known story of Newton and Apple. In that magical festival, an apple accidentally fell from the tree, which was a turning point in the history of human thought. It opened the minds of people sitting in the garden, and finally Newton discovered the epoch-making law of gravity for mankind.
Where g is the gravitational constant, m 1 and m2 respectively represent the mass of two objects, and r is the distance between two objects.
(6) Maxwell electromagnetic equation
The sixth formula is Maxwell's electromagnetic equations, which determines the universal relationship among charge, current, electric field and magnetic field, and is the basic equation of electromagnetism. Maxwell's equations show that as long as there is a changing magnetic field somewhere in space, the eddy electric field can be excited, and the alternating electric field and the magnetic field can excite each other to form a continuous electromagnetic oscillation, that is, electromagnetic waves. This formula can prove that the propagation speed of electromagnetic wave in vacuum is equal to that of light in vacuum, which is not accidental coincidence, but because light is an electromagnetic wave with a certain wavelength, which is Maxwell's electromagnetic theory of light. Maxwell is another great physicist who integrated electromagnetism after Faraday. The theory of electromagnetism has laid the foundation of modern electric power industry, electronic industry and radio industry. 187 1 was hired as a professor of experimental physics at Cambridge University, and was responsible for the preparation of the first physics laboratory in the university-Cavendish Laboratory.
(7) Einstein's mass-energy relationship
E=mc2
Where c is the speed of light, m is mass and e is energy. This is the most famous mass-energy relationship later. This is the theoretical basis for making atomic bombs. 1905 The person who put forward this formula is Einstein, a 26-year-old employee of Bern Patent Office. 19 15 established the general theory of relativity and determined the relationship between space, time and matter. Mass-energy conversion formula and relativity have great influence. Nowadays, nuclear energy is widely used in agriculture and military affairs, and black holes, time travel and space bending all originate from relativity. Einstein began to learn the violin at the age of six and stayed with him all his life. Art improved his aesthetic ability, and he also pursued the beauty of mathematics (simplicity and symmetry) in physics all his life.
(VIII) De Broglie formula
The formula for commending the eighth stamp is De Broglie's formula for wave-particle duality proposed in 1924: λ=h/mv,
Where λ is the wavelength of matter wave related to particles, H is Planck constant, and mv is the momentum of particles. Before de Broglie, people's understanding of nature was limited to two basic material types: physical objects and fields. De Broglie originally studied history, but influenced by the mathematician Poincare, he changed to science. 1924, he put forward the concept of "matter wave" in his doctoral thesis, which caused a sensation all over the world. He thinks that any object and particle have the properties of wave and particle at the same time, and uses Einstein's theory of relativity to derive the formula of material wave wavelength. His view was later confirmed by Davidson's experiment. The concept of matter wave also provides an important theoretical basis for the development of wave mechanics.
(9) Boltzmann formula
1854, clausius, a german scientist, first introduced the concept of entropy, which is a quantity indicating the disorder degree of closed systems. Entropy in Greek means "change". This quantity will not change in the reversible process, but will become larger in the irreversible process. Like a lazy man's room, if no one helps him clean it, the room will only go down in chaos and never become neat. Living things can't do without the law of entropy increase, and they need to absorb negative entropy from the outside to offset the entropy increase. In 1877, Boltzmann expressed the disorder degree of the system with the following relation: S=kLnW, where k is Boltzmann constant and s is the entropy value of the macro system, which is a measure of the degree of molecular movement or disorder. W is the number of possible microstates. The bigger w is, the more chaotic the system is. From this, we can see the microscopic significance of entropy: entropy is a measure of the disorder of molecular thermal motion in the system. Because of his novel viewpoint, it was not accepted by many famous scholars at first, and Boltzmann paid a huge price for it, which became an important reason for his personal tragedy (suicide). The formula S=kLnW was engraved on Boltzmann's tombstone in recognition of his great originality.
(10) Tsiolkovsky formula
In the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon, thousands of families are flying, and human beings have been longing for space for a long time and have made unremitting efforts for it. The key to conquering space is rocket technology.
When it comes to modern rockets, we have to mention tsiolkovsky, the world-recognized pioneer of space theory. It was he who put forward the possibility of using rockets for interstellar navigation and launching satellites. The relationship between rocket structural characteristics and flight speed is established, that is, the famous Tsiolkovsky formula. Where V is the speed increment of the rocket, Ve is the speed of the jet relative to the rocket, and m0 and mi represent the mass of the rocket when the engine is turned on and off, respectively. It has become the key to human conquest of space.
1957, the Soviet Union launched the first artificial satellite, which started the space age. 196 1 year, it sent its first astronaut Gagarin and won the first battle of the space race. 1969, the United States sent Armstrong to the moon. Tsiolkovsky focused on ancient rocket technology in China, and asked people to translate military works in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties for reference, especially interested in Wu Beizhi. At that time, there were nearly 30 kinds of military rockets in China. He is fascinated by weapons such as "Dragon Arrow" or "Dragon Out of Water". He had more dreams and inspiration, and soon wrote a book, Dreams of the Earth and the Sky. He has a very incisive famous saying: "The earth is the cradle of mankind, but people can't live in the cradle forever."
Data collection of mathematical manuscripts: why do we study mathematics?
Gu Sen: When we were growing up in university, we used ready-made knowledge and theorems to solve problems. Many people still don't know the formula or reason put forward by scientists after graduation. But the story behind it is actually more exciting. Including many mathematical conclusions, in fact, people's guesses may be wrong at first, or even draw completely opposite conclusions, and then gradually approach this truth. These are not in the textbook. There are many books that are purely storytelling, and the silent universe tells the origin of many mathematical formulas and their influence on human beings, which is very powerful.
I think physical formulas have a greater impact on the significance of human development. In fact, mathematical formulas are not the most meaningful things in mathematics. Mostly theorems, not what equals what.
Li miao: I think even liberal arts students need cross-border study. I strongly support the reform of college entrance examination, regardless of arts and sciences. A thousand years ago, there was no division. Under the guidance of human science, we must go back to the past after the division of labor is extremely detailed and science develops to a certain extent. Is to cross the border If you don't cross the line, your future employment opportunities and all aspects will be greatly restricted. So I am very much looking forward to seeing that the college entrance examination will no longer be divided into subjects in my lifetime.
Gu Sen: If it's for the exam, if the math exam is cancelled, will we still study? I think mathematics should be divided into two levels. One is to add, subtract, multiply and divide within 100 in primary school, and learn to settle accounts. Further solve equations, geometric conclusions, etc. , may not be used in life. It is enough to learn mathematics in the second day of junior high school, and then go up, maybe it is purely out of interest. Mathematical physics is meaningful only when you want to do something completely new in a certain professional field and benefit mankind.
