Isaac Newton Three Laws
653 wordsIn the year 1642 the people of Europe would have never thought that when Isaac Newton was born he would become one of the smartest men of his time. Through his 84 years on earth this man would discover gravity and write the principia, one of the most famous books to date. Newton didn't discover gravity but he discovered that it was and still is everywhere on earth at all times. A falling apple had posed a very difficult question in Newton's mind, the question of whether the force exerted by the ...

Center Of Gravity Galileo Galilei
2,005 wordsThe seventeenth century marked the beginning of spectacular changes in science that to this day flourish. However, during these times, science and faith would clash, and in their terrible conflict, the two were severed, to continue in divergent directions and to lose their common ground that continues at the present. The Aristotelian point of view that the Earth was the center of the universe was a universal, Biblical belief that no one dared to question. However, one mans discoveries within the...

Carbon Dioxide Solar System
1,582 wordsHumans live on a small planet in a tiny part of a vast universe. This part of the universe is called the solar system, and is dominated by a single brilliant star-the sun. The solar system is the earths neighbourhood and the planets Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are the Earths neighbours. They all have the same stars in the sky and orbit the same sun. Scientists believe the solar system began about 5 billion years ago, perhaps when a nearby star exploded and ca...

Aluminum Foil Magnetic Force
1,253 wordsSummary of Investigation An investigation was carried out to find out the relationship between the force created in a wire (or solenoid) when current flowed through it and the force from gravity. This was investigated by connecting a solenoid up to a variable power pack and then placing a light ring of either copper or aluminum around the solenoid. When the current flows through the solenoid, a magnetic force created from the solenoid should make the ring 'jump' up or levitate. When carrying out...

18 Th Century Speed Of Light
1,558 wordsBlack Holes Every day we look into the night sky, wondering and dreaming what lies beyond our galaxy. Within our galaxy alone, there are millions upon millions of stars. This may be why it interest us to learn about all that we cannot see. Humans have known the existence of stars since they have had eyes, and see them as white glowing specks in the sky. The mystery lies beyond the white glowing specks we see but, in the things we cannot see in the night sky such as black holes. Before I begin to...
