When was Sir Isaac Newton born, and who were his parents?

Question

month,day,year and for parents what were their names

Answer 1

(4 January 1643 – 31 March 1727)

Parents=

Newton was born at Woolsthorpe Manor in Woolsthorpe-by-Colsterworth, a hamlet in the county of Lincolnshire. He was born to a family of farmers who owned animals and land, thus making them fairly wealthy. The location he was born at was about seven miles from Grantham, where he later attended school. By his own later accounts, Newton was born prematurely and no one expected him to live; his mother Hannah Ayscough said that his body at that time could have fit inside a quart mug. His father, also named Isaac Newton, had been a yeoman farmer and had died three months before Newton's birth, at the time of the English Civil War. When Newton was three, his mother remarried and went to live with her new husband, leaving her son in the care of his maternal grandmother, Margery Ayscough.

Answer 2

Sir Isaac Newton
Born 4 January 1643 [OS: 25 December 1642][1]
Woolsthorpe-by-Colsterworth, Lincolnshire, England
Died 31 March 1727 [OS: 20 March 1727][1]
Kensington, London, England
Occupation Physicist, mathematician, astronomer, alchemist, and natural philosopher.

His father died before he was born. When he was barely three years old, his mother remarried and moved into the home of her new husband Barnabas Smith, leaving the infant Isaac in the care of her own parents until Smith's death some seven years later, when she came back, bringing with her two daughters and a son from her second marriage.

Answer 3

Isaac Newton was born in the manor house of Woolsthorpe, near Grantham in Lincolnshire. Although by the calendar in use at the time of his birth he was born on Christmas Day 1642, we give the date of 4 January 1643 in this biography which is the "corrected" Gregorian calendar date bringing it into line with our present calendar. (The Gregorian calendar was not adopted in England until 1752.) Isaac Newton came from a family of farmers but never knew his father, also named Isaac Newton, who died in October 1642, three months before his son was born. Although Isaac's father owned property and animals which made him quite a wealthy man, he was completely uneducated and could not sign his own name.Isaac's mother was Hannah Ayscough

Answer 4

Isaac Newton was born on 4 January 1643 in Woolsthorpe, Lincolnshire.

Although by the calendar in use at the time of his birth he was born on Christmas Day 1642, we give the date of 4 January 1643 in this biography which is the "corrected" Gregorian calendar date bringing it into line with our present calendar.

His father was a prosperous farmer, who died three months before Newton was born. His mother re-married and Newton was left in the care of his grandparents.

Their names...Hannah whom later married Barnabas (vicar).
Father, a yeoman, Mr. Newton perhaps.

Answer 5

DECEMBER 25th

On this day in history in 1642, was born Sir Isaac Newton.
Newton was the greatest scientist that Britain, or even the world, has produced. He is famous for the binomial theorem and the differential calculus, for the Laws of Motion, the diffusion of light and for the discovering the principal of gravity.

Newton was born in Lincolnshire at Woolsthorpe Manor, now a museum in his honour. [open to the public. 23 Newton Way, Woolsthorpe-by-Colsterworth, Near Grantham, Lincolnshire NG33 5NR.] His father died when he was young, his mother remarried and he spent a neglected childhood, receiving an elementary education which leaned more towards the Classics than arithmetic.

When his stepfather died, Newton was expected to look after the family lands but his efforts were so inefficient, the family decided that there was only one suitable place for Master Isaac and that was the Varsity. Newton was therefore packed off to Trinity College, Cambridge.

At that time, mathematical theories were based on Aristotle, but Newton read more modern theories such as Descartes, Galileo and Kepler. He developed the binomial theory and worked on a new theory that would later be known as calculus. When Newton obtained his degree in 1665, the Great Plague stuck and the universities were closed. Newton now worked at home on the theories of optics and the Law of Gravitation.

It was this period that was Newton’s most productive. His experiments showed that white light is made up of colours, which can be separated using a prism and reconstituted as white light by means of a second prism. It is said that Newton discovered gravity when an apple fell from a tree onto his head and he speculated as to what natural force could be responsible. The actual apple tree later became a tourist attraction at his Lincolnshire home. A descendant of that tree now stands outside Trinity College, Cambridge.[ Trinity Street, Cambridge CB2 3RF]

When the university reopened in 1667, Newton’s work enabled him to obtain the post of Lucasian professor of mathematics. Now working on optics, he invented the reflecting telescope, which he presented to the Royal Society of which he became a fellow.

In 1696, Newton was appointed Master of the Mint and was responsible for taking in the old currency and reissuing new coins, which would be difficult to shave or to counterfeit. He presided over the prosecution of several alleged counterfeiters including the notorious Chalenor who was hanged drawn and quartered for forgery. One of Newton’s lesser-known inventions was the cat flap, which allowed his pets to move freely without disturbing his experiments.

Answer 6

Sir Isaac Newton, FRS (4 January 1643 – 31 March 1727) [ OS: 25 December 1642 – 20 March 1727][1] was an English physicist, mathematician, astronomer, alchemist, and natural philosopher, regarded by many as the greatest figure in the history of science.[2] His treatise Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, published in 1687, described universal gravitation and the three laws of motion, laying the groundwork for classical mechanics. By deriving Kepler's laws of planetary motion from this system, he was the first to show that the motion of objects on Earth and of celestial bodies are governed by the same set of natural laws. The unifying and predictive power of his laws was integral to the scientific revolution, the advancement of heliocentrism, and the broader acceptance of the notion that rational investigation can reveal the inner workings of nature.

In mechanics, Newton also markedly enunciated the principles of conservation of momentum and angular momentum. In optics, he invented the reflecting telescope and discovered that the spectrum of colours observed when white light passes through a prism is inherent in the white light and not added by the prism (as Roger Bacon had claimed in the thirteenth century). Newton notably argued that light is composed of particles. He also formulated an empirical law of cooling, studied the speed of sound, and proposed a theory of the origin of stars. In mathematics, Newton shares the credit with Gottfried Leibniz for the development of calculus. He also demonstrated the generalized binomial theorem, developed the so-called "Newton's method" for approximating the zeroes of a function, and contributed to the study of power series.

Newton was born at Woolsthorpe Manor in Woolsthorpe-by-Colsterworth, a hamlet in the county of Lincolnshire. He was born to a family of farmers who owned animals and land, thus making them fairly wealthy. The location he was born at was about seven miles from Grantham, where he later attended school. By his own later accounts, Newton was born prematurely and no one expected him to live; his mother Hannah Ayscough said that his body at that time could have fit inside a quart mug. His father, also named Isaac Newton, had been a yeoman farmer and had died three months before Newton's birth, at the time of the English Civil War. When Newton was three, his mother remarried and went to live with her new husband, leaving her son in the care of his maternal grandmother, Margery Ayscough.

Answer 7

He was born January 4 1643 (he died March 31 1727 btw) His parents were farmers- his mothers name was Hannah Ayscough(born in 23 died 1679) and his fathers name was also Isaac Newton (born 1606 died 1642)....


hope this helps it should...

Answer 8

1642, mother: Hannah Ayscough, father: Isaac Newton (died early), stepfather: Barnabas Smith
