Ok, so I have this homework assignment for school, where I have to determine whether or not people are aware of the contributions of some historically important scientists. In order to do this, I have to take a survey and ask at least 15 people some questions and record it.

Thing is, I'm not allowed to ask anyone in my class or anything. So I thought I would just get you all to help me. It won't be considered cheating.

So I have five questions:

1. Who discovered laws of gravity, inertia, and momentum?
2. Who said that the characteristics of groups of organisms change over time?
3. Who discovered penicillin, a drug that kills some bacteria?
4. Who stated that the earth revolves around the sun, rather than the sun around the earth?
5. Who explained that energy can be changed into matter with the formula e=mc 2 (squared)?

Answer each question, if u don't know, just put n/a. also, give your 1st name so i can write it in on the survey sheet. thanks for your help!

Well apparently I'm very old and it has been a long time since I have been in school. I can't remember any of the people's names that did these things.
