All about how the theories of science have become faulty, due to a lack of re-checking and logical thought.
A fly-through of the major developments in the physics of light and matter, from Newton to Einstein and beyond.
Isaac Newton sat under a tree and had an apple fall on his head.
As we might all know, planetary data like masses, sizes, and interplanetary distances are now readily available and well- arranged in books and across the internet. Self-evidently, it is impossible to measure those data directly. Isn’t it curious at how those values were acquired? Let’s take a look at one of the early triumphs of physics as the primary tool for such field of intellectual quest – the determination of the mass of the Earth.
When Nicolaus Copernicus proposed that the Sun controlled the planetary system, he was accused of heresy. A luckless follower, Giordano Bruno, was burned at the stake.
This is one of the classic mathematical problems whose solution led to the discovery of the calculus of variation – now very useful in the field of engineering and physics. Finding its solution for the first time was not easy. It took the great Bernoulli brothers, Newton, Leibniz, et al. to accomplish it. All of them are all-time mathematical greats.
