艾萨克·牛顿(1643-1727),英格兰物理学家、数学家、天文学家和自然哲学家。他于1687年发表《自然哲学的数学原理》,阐述了万有引力定律和三大运动定律,奠定了此后三个多世纪里力学和天文学的基础,成为现代工程学的理论奠基者。在光学领域,他发明了反射望远镜,还最先利用三棱镜研究了可见光谱,发展出了颜色理论。在数学领域,他证明了广义二 Isaac Newton (1643-1727), English physicist, mathematician, astronomer and natural philosopher. In 1687, he published the Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy, expounded the law of universal gravitation and the laws of the three movements, laid the foundation for mechanics and astronomy for more than three centuries and became the founders of the theory of modern engineering. In the field of optics, he invented the reflective telescope, but also the first to use the prism to study the visible spectrum, developed a color theory. In the field of mathematics, he proved generalized two
