Legend has it that Isaac Newton formulated gravitational theory in 1665 or 1666 after watching an apple fall and asking why the apple fell straight down, rather than sideways or even upward.
18 janv. 2010 · In a flash he understands that the very same force that brought the apple crashing toward the ground also keeps the moon falling toward the Earth and the Earth falling toward the sun: gravity.
25 oct. 2020 · As the legend goes, Isaac Newton was inspired to develop his ideas on gravity by taking notice of an apple falling from a tree.
17 juin 2024 · Isaac Newton, the brilliant physicist and mathematician, revolutionized our understanding of the universe with his laws of motion and universal gravitation, forever changing the course of scientific inquiry.
Some say that Newton came up with his ideas about gravity after watching an apple fall. He wondered why the apple fell straight down. Why didn't it fall sideways, or even up toward the sky? Gravity does not just make apples fall from trees. It also holds us on the ground.
21 juin 2024 · Newton discovered the relationship between the motion of the Moon and the motion of a body falling freely on Earth. By his dynamical and gravitational theories, he explained Kepler’s laws and established the modern quantitative science of gravitation.
It was during that time, it is said, that an apple inspired him to study gravity. According to a popular story, the young scientist saw an apple fall from a tree and questioned why the apple--or any object--falls down to the ground rather than sideways or up into the air.
