Isaac Newton (Physicist)
Isaac Newton was a 17th-century English physicist and mathematician, widely recognized as one of the most influential scientists in history. He formulated the laws of motion and universal gravitation, which explained how objects move and interact. His work laid the foundation for classical mechanics. Newton also made significant contributions to optics, discovering that white light is made up of various colors. His book, "Principia Mathematica," published in 1687, revolutionized science and established the framework for modern physics. Newton's methods and insights continue to shape our understanding of the natural world today.
