Chapter 4 Newton’s First Law of Motion M.Atanasiu. Text - Conceptual Physics (Hewitt) Based on Dr. Bruton’s lectures at Austin State University

Sir Isaac Newton (1643 – 1727) > Born shortly after Galileo died > Inventor of Calculus > Known for his laws of motion

Isaac Newton's own first edition copy of his Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica with his handwritten corrections for the second edition.

A reputed descendant of Newton's apple tree, found in the Botanic Gardens in Cambridge.
