Newton's Dark Secrets

     Newton was born as a premature baby on December 25 in Woolsthorpe, England. He was born into a poor family that farmed. His father died before his birth, and his mother and grandmother took care of him. In 1661, Newton went to Trinity College, University of Cambridge. He studied mathematics in earnest, laying the foundation for his later discoveries. He graduated in 1665, and then returned to the family farm for the next two years.
     While he was at the farm, he established the fundementals of what is now called calculus. He also worked on the law of universal gravitation and began starting to work on his three laws of motion. In 1667, Newton returned to Cambridge and became the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics. Rumors went around saying that in 1669, he became experimenting with alchemy. In 1687, when spending more than 20 years working on his developments of mathematics, Newton published a book explaining his theories on gravity and celestial motion. This book made his reputation outstanding in Europe for being one of the greatest mathematicans and scientific thinkers. He published a second book named Opticks in 1704. He later died in 1727 at the age of 84 in London on March 20.
       I do not think we have scientists today like Newton because I do not think anyone would put as much thought, effort, and time like he did. This was his whole life since 16 almost. I don't think anyone has as much dedication as Newton. He worked and worked until there was no more to be solved.

Newton's Laws

This is a video demonstrating all of Newton's laws by using a basketball.

Predicting Speed #2

Yes. And the farther the position, the faster the speed.

The second trial was more reliable than the first because on the first trial we got to choose anywhere on the scale 10 cm apart. On the second trial, we had two certain points that were exactly 75cm apart, but we didnt get to choose how we ranged it.

Predicting Speed

Yes. And the farther the position, the faster the speed.

Metric Mania

When teachers say the metric system is easier, they mean that its simpler than what the US uses. It has an easier method and all the numbers and outcomes of the metric system make sense in the end, unlike the US system. I agree with this statement because like I said, it makes sense.

Testing

does this work

1.The info that was helpful was the date, and who it was made out to. The info that was useless was the amount of money used, who signed it, and the memo. 2. The misleading info was the death of a person and the check for the toys. 3. We say the hypothesis is tentative because it keeps changing. 4. The hypothesis could become a theory because we dont know exaclty what happened so whatever we think happened, happens. 5. My final hypothesis is probably not correct because there is no telling how all of this happened or how it happened.
