When it comes to Newton, people may think that he must have been a "prodigy" and "genius" when he was a child, with extraordinary intelligence. In fact, Newton's childhood was thin and his mind was not smart. When I was studying in my hometown, I didn't study hard and got poor grades in my class. But he has a wide range of interests and his game skills are higher than those of ordinary children. Usually he likes to make mechanical models, such as windmills, waterwheels, sundials and so on. His elaborate water clock has won people's praise for its accurate timing.

Sometimes, the way he plays ball is also very strange. One day, he made a lantern to hang on the tail of a kite. When night falls, the lighted lanterns rise into the air with the help of the rising power of kites. Luminous lanterns flow in the air, and people are frightened and think there is a comet. Nevertheless, he is often discriminated against because of his poor academic performance.

At that time, the hierarchy of British feudal society was very serious. Students who study well in primary and secondary schools may discriminate against those who study poorly. There was a game between classes. When everyone was in high spirits, a good student kicked Newton and called him an idiot. Newton's mind was stimulated to extreme anger. He thought, we are all students. Why should I be bullied by him? I must pass him! From then on, Newton made up his mind to study hard. He gets up early and goes to bed late. Every minute counts. He studies hard and thinks hard.

After studying hard, Newton's academic performance improved continuously, and soon surpassed the classmate who had bullied him, ranking first in the class.

One day, he invited people to dinner.

Before dinner, I had a whim to make an experimental area.

When the guest saw that no one paid attention to him, he ate well and left, leaving only chicken bones.

Later, he found himself hungry.

When I came out for dinner, I found chicken bones.

I thought I had eaten, so I went back to do the experiment.

3. fun under the fence

Many famous scientists in the world have poor families. On the road to success, they all fought tenaciously against the difficult situation. Newton's childhood

The situation is also very sympathetic.

Newton was born in 1642 in the home of an ordinary farmer in England. Newton's father died shortly before he was born. Mother remarried when he was two years old. Dangniu

At the age of fourteen, her stepfather died unfortunately and her mother returned to her hometown. Newton was forced to drop out of school and go home to help her farm. Mother wants to train him to make a living independently.

He deals in agricultural products.

How reluctant a studious child is to leave his beloved school! He cried several times, but his mother never changed her mind. Finally, she had to force her against her will.

Willing to study business. Every morning, he and an old servant go to a big town more than ten miles away to do business. Newton disliked doing business very much and entrusted everything to an old servant.

Handling, but secretly run to a place to study.

As time went on, Newton became more and more disgusted with business, and all he liked was reading. Later, Newton simply stopped going to town to do business, and asked the old servant to go alone. be afraid

The family found him going out with the old servant every day, stopping to study under a fence. Whenever the old servant comes back in the afternoon, we will go home together.

In this way, day after day, the reading life under the fence is also very enjoyable. One day, he was reading happily under the fence when his uncle saw him pass by. Yishushu

Seeing this scene, I was very angry and shouted at him for doing nothing; Took Newton's book. My uncle was deeply moved when he saw that he was reading a math book with various marks painted on it.

Be moved. My uncle hugged Newton and said excitedly, "son, just develop according to your ambition." Your right path should be learning. "

After returning home, my uncle tried to persuade Newton's mother to let Newton abandon business and go to school. With the help of his uncle, Newton returned to school as he wished.

Study and calculate the wind force in the storm

Time treats people equally and gives people the same amount, but people use time in different ways and gain different knowledge.

When Newton was sixteen years old, his understanding of mathematics was still superficial, and he didn't even understand the advanced knowledge of mathematics. "Knowledge lies in accumulation, and cleverness comes from learning". Newton was determined to do it.

Climb the peak of mathematics with your own efforts. Under the unfavorable conditions of poor foundation, Newton can correctly understand himself and make progress despite difficulties. He relearned the basic knowledge and basic formula, and tied for it.

Solid and step by step. After studying Euclidean geometry, he studied Cartesian geometry. In contrast, he thought Euclidean geometry was superficial, so he studied Descartes carefully.

Geometry, until master the essentials, mastery. So he invented the algebraic binomial theorem. Newton's legendary story of "the wind in a big storm" can be attributed to Newton's body mechanics.

Prove One day, there was a big storm. The wind is howling, the dust is flying, and the mystery is long, which makes people open their eyes. Newton thought it was an accurate method to study and calculate the wind force.

A good opportunity. So, he took the appliance and ran back and forth in the storm. He stumbled and measured with difficulty. Several times the dust fascinated my eyes, and several times the wind blew away the paper.

Several strong winds forced him to suspend his work, but none of them shook his thirst for knowledge. He finally got the correct data over and over again. He was so happy that he hurried home.

, continue to study. Where there is a will, there is a way. After diligent study, Newton laid a solid foundation for his tower of science. Soon, Newton's math tower was built.

He invented differential calculus at the age of 22 and integral calculus at the age of 23, which made great contributions to the cause of human science.

The secrets of gravity and light

When Newton was twenty-three, there was a plague in London. In order to prevent students from being infected, Cambridge University informed students to leave school and go home to avoid the epidemic, and the school was temporarily closed. Newton returned to his hometown forest.

The countryside of Kenshire. In the days when he didn't go to school in the country, he never stopped studying and researching. The basic work of inventions such as gravitation, calculus and optical analysis was all in this period.

It was done suddenly.

At that time, children in rural areas often used slings for several rounds and then threw stones far away. They can also hold a bucket of milk over their heads without the milk falling down.

Let's go

These facts made him suspicious: "What is the power to keep the stones in the slingshot and the milk in the bucket from falling?" For this problem, he once thought of Kepler.

And Galileo's thoughts. He went from vast space, endless planets, cold moon to huge earth, and then thought about the interaction between these giants.

Function. At this time, Newton plunged into the calculation and verification of "gravity". Newton plans to use this principle to verify the laws of the planets in the solar system. He first deduced the distance from the moon.

The distance between the earth, because the quoted data is incorrect, the calculation result is wrong. Because it is reasonable to calculate that the moon revolves around the earth, the centripetal acceleration per minute should be sixteen feet.

, but it is estimated to be only 13.9 feet. Newton didn't lose heart in the predicament of failure. On the contrary, he studies harder with greater efforts. After seven whole springs.

At the age of 30, the autumn and summer finally proved the world-famous "law of gravity" and laid the foundation for theoretical astronomy and celestial mechanics.

During this period, Newton also studied optics and discovered the origin of color. On one occasion, when he was observing celestial bodies with a homemade telescope, no matter how to adjust the lens, the viewpoint was always

I don't know. He thinks this may be related to the refraction of light. Then the experiment began. He left a small round hole in the darkroom window to transmit light, and put a three behind the indoor window.

Prism, a white screen is hung behind the prism to receive the light folded by the prism. As a result, to a big surprise, Newton was surprised to see that the refraction received on the white screen was elliptical and had two ends.

Show colorful colors. Newton thought deeply about this strange phenomenon. Knowing that light is refracted, the white light of the sun is scattered into red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo,

Seven colors of purple. So white light (sunlight) is composed of seven colors of light: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and purple. It is naturally sunny after the rain, and the sun shines through the sky.

It is for this reason that the refraction and reflection of the surrounding raindrops form colorful rainbows.

Newton pointed out after further research that everything in the world has color, not itself. The sun shines on everything, and every object only absorbs the color it receives, but it will

It can't accept reflected colors. The color of this reflection is the color of various objects that people see. This theory accurately tells the origin of color and has been widely used all over the world.

All kinds of color theories that have appeared since ancient times have been overthrown by it.

Newton was able to make such great achievements, and the profound mathematical foundation laid by his hard work in his early years played an important role.

Enter the realm of selflessness

On a rugged mountain road, a white-haired old man is slowly climbing the mountain with a horse. People walk slowly in front, horses follow step by step, and the valley rings.

The monotonous sound of hooves. Walking, the horse suddenly ran away, and the old man didn't notice it because he was immersed in extreme thinking. The old man is still fearless and climbs the mountain without fear.

Still holding the horse's reins in the forest. When he climbed to a flat place and wanted to ride a horse, he pulled the reins, only one rope was pulled in front. Looking back, the horse was gone.

Newton spent most of his time studying except taking a little time to exercise every day. Once, in the study, he was thinking while roasting chicken.

Eggs. Thinking hard almost made him insane. Suddenly, the water in the pot boiled. I quickly lifted the pot and looked, "Ah!" He exclaimed, but it was a pocket watch cooked in the pot. the original

When he was thinking, he absently put his pocket watch into the pot as an egg.

On another occasion, Newton invited a friend to his home for lunch. ? Core by pu？ Yu Yu? Yan Yan? Mountain? Forgive k? Deflect Su Zhan? I'm anxious to wait for six figurines.

rice. Near noon, the guests were invited. The guests saw Newton immersed in calculation problems, with manuscript paper and books on the table and bed. Seeing this, the guest didn't disturb the cow.

When he saw the food on the table, he thought it was for him, so he sat down and ate. After eating, he left quietly. Newton finished the problem and went to the table to get ready for lunch.

When I was eating, I saw the chicken bones on my plate and suddenly realized, "I thought I wouldn't eat them, so I ate them."

It doesn't matter whether these stories are true or not, but it shows that Newton is a thoughtful person, a slovenly person and a vain person. He is very proficient in science.

Heart, always thinking about the rotation of the stars, the change of the universe, has entered the realm of selflessness.

Modest and prudent style of study

"The rivers and rivers are very calm, and knowledgeable people are very modest." All great men who have made great contributions to human development have the virtue of modesty. Whenever Newton was engaged in scientific research,

When he made great achievements, he was never complacent, thought he was great, and rushed to publish his works to make his name known to the world.

When Newton worked hard to work out the law of gravity, he was not in a hurry to publish it. Instead, I continued to think tirelessly for several years, studied for several years, and immersed myself in digital calculation.

Never said a word to anyone. Later, Newton's friend, the great astronomer Harley (the discoverer of the comet), was in trouble when he proved a law about the orbit of planets.

When in trouble, I made a special trip to ask Newton. Newton gave Harley his manuscript on the calculation of gravity. Harley didn't know until he saw it. The question he wanted to ask was Newton.

I envy those problems that have been solved by calculation.

1684 1 1 month One day, Harley visited Newton's apartment again. When talking about the academic problems about astronomy, Newton came up with a written argument about "everything"

Gravitation ",please advise Harley. After reading it, Harley was very surprised at this masterpiece. He said happily to Newton, "This is really a great argument and a great book!

"He repeatedly advised Newton to publish this great book as soon as possible for the benefit of mankind. However, Newton did not listen to the good advice of his friends and easily published his own works. But by

After repeated verification and calculation for a long time, it was confirmed to be correct, and in July 1687, the Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy was published to the whole world.

Newton was a very modest man and never conceited. Someone once asked Newton, "What is the secret of your success?" Newton replied, "If I were a little small."

There is no other secret to small achievements, only diligence. He added, "If I see farther, it is because I stand on the shoulders of giants." What do these words mean?

How long! It vividly reveals the secret of Newton's great achievements, that is, on the basis of previous research results, with dedication, he diligently created and developed a branch.
