What was the change?
Who were the people associated with the change ?
Sir Isaac Newton
1) An object at rest will remain at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force, an object at motion will remain at motion continues at motion with the same speed & in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
2) Acceleration is produced when a force acts on a mass. the greater the mass of an object the greater amount of force is needed for the object to accelerate.
3)For every action there is an equal & opposite re-action.
Galileo Galilei
Johannes Kepler
There were three laws involved in this.
1) Planets move in ellipses with the sun.
2) A line joining a planet and the sun sweeps out equal areas during equal intervals of time.3) the square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit.
How did the change impact the society of the time?
How is that change evident in today's society?
From Galileo to Sir Isaac newton to Johannes Kepler, many discoveries were made. All those discoveries have impacted today's world in some way or another. There were the three laws of motion to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, and planet discoveries, based on these discoveries, we are now succesful with other things.
