As an engineer, knowing how that apple made this engineering so hard with so much equations and principles I always blame on the fate who masterminded that incident on him. Why can't it be on the other way?..think...there was a lot of chances of making Isaac newton think about some thing new innovations other than the formulated one. Atleast he could have thought why apple detaches from the tree after it gets ripened, leading to a new discovery in Biology...Ohh...that would be so nice for engineers...after all it will be the Biology students who will be stucked and suffered due to his new principles and equations.
Curiosity behind why he became so famous lead me to have a study on his life. A funny fact I came across while i was reading his character was..he was not at all interested in romance or anything with women. He born and died as virgin :-P ..So isn't the quote "Behind every famous man there's a women" is wrong...in the case of Isaac Newton i would have said "Behind Newton's fame. an Apple did the work of a women".
Newton was classified as a victim of Asperger Syndrome by his Cambridge psychologist. The disorder is a form of autism which makes the man to narrow their interest on limited fields. He/she will have a very strict daily routine and gathers massive knowledge on the peculiar field where he/she shows interest.
Even though the apple incident is so famous, itz said that the apple dint fell on his head as teh story says. Seeing the falling apple he thought why it's going perpendicular down, why can't it fall in a slanting line or in anyother direction. Research on 2 decades lead to the discovery of gravitational force and the reason behind keeping the moon on it's orbit.
Atlast it's a secret that even though we all tell we are suffering to study about his genius equations, lamda, light principles etc it's a fact that the whole luxury we are enjoying today-in this world is because of the ideas and inventions based on his discovery. Will quote some examples
# mobile phone is an inevitable stuff for youth and almost all other people ..so the backbone behind Cell phones communication is satellite and to place the satellite in the space orbit successfully we have to depend on rockets. Rockets work on action reaction principle so in another way we are using the idea of action reaction principle's Father -Isaac Newton
# moreover to keep the geostationary satellites and other satellites in orbit efficiently we need to calculate the attributes based on gravitational force and all. So here also we are indirectly making a hats off to his discovery.
# when u say "my car has got 17km/l mileage" " lamborghini is 2 tymz as fast as mercedez" ...all these times we are depending on the motion findings done by Isaac Newton
In general, each and every particle in the universe is in a state of motion( vibration).so itz obvious that we are dealing all the time with those motion effects and nowadays we are harnessing those effects so that we can make best use of it. So actually the core behind the exploiting acts is the foundation lead by Isaac newton with his studies on motion.
DOUBT-> apple male or female?? if it was male it wudnt have fall on his head like plunk plunkkk..
ReplyDeleteHmm...genuine doubt.. he he... so u saying it's a female apple..probably yeah.. if it was a male then how will it fall on his head..can you tell...?? ;-)
