PRESENTATION OUTLINE
WHO WAS ISAAC NEWTON?
Sir Isaac Newton was an English physicist, mathematician, astronomer and natural philosopher.
Sir Isaac Newton was born on 25. December 1642 in Lincolnshire in England.
He died on 20. March 1726 (aged 83).
Isaac Newton is considered one of the most important scientists in history.
Even Albert Einstein said that Isaac Newton was the smartest person that ever lived.
DURING HIS LIFETIME HE DEVELOPED...
- The theory of gravity
- The laws of motion
- A new type of mathematics called calculus
- and made breakthroughs in optics
BUT BEFORE THAT HE ALMOST BECAME A FARMER
At age 17 Newton Was away studying at school when his mother ordered him back home to learn the farming trade.
Luckily, the school's headmaster convinced his mother to send Newton back to school.

After finishing with high marks, he enrolled at Trinity College at the University of Cambridge, where he studied for the next four years.
He would spend much of his life at Cambridge, becoming a professor of mathematics and a fellow of the royal society (a group of scientists in England).
He eventually was elected to represent Cambridge University as a member of parliament.
ABOUT Calculus
Calculus is a kind of math that lets you measure curves and irregular shapes.
Calculus helps you measure those shapes by braking them up in a whole brunch of regular shapes.
ABOUT THE LAWS OF MOTION.
FIRST LAW OF MOTION.
An object at rest will remain at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force.
An object in motion continues in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
example:standing on a skateboard or driving on a skateboard
SECOND LAW OF MOTION
Acceleration is produced when a force acts on a mass.
The greater the mass(of the object being accelerated) the greater the amount of force needed.(to accelerate the object)
example: pushing a bike or pushing a car.
THIRD LAW OF MOTION.
For every action there is an equal and opposite re-action.
