Meanwhile Newton ( 1642 – 1727 ) derived the relationship for wave velocity in solids, a cornerstone of physical acoustics ( Principia, 1687 ).

This period of renewed assertiveness came to a calamitous end when Grand Vizier Kara Mustafa Pasha in May 1683 led a huge army to attempt a second Ottoman siege of Vienna in the Great Turkish War of 1683 – 1687.

* 1687: Isaac Newton published Principia Mathematica.

They were first compiled by Sir Isaac Newton in his work Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica, first published on July 5, 1687.

File: GodfreyKneller-IsaacNewton-1689. jpg | Sir Isaac Newton ( 1642-1727 ): established three laws of motion and a law of universal gravitation in his Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica ( 1687 ), laid foundations for classical mechanics, invented the reflecting telescope, observed that a prism splits white light into the colors of the visible spectrum, formulated a law of cooling, co-invented infinitesimal calculus

In 1687, English mathematician Sir Isaac Newton published Principia, which hypothesizes the inverse-square law of universal gravitation.

The Newton series consists of the terms of the Newton forward difference equation, named after Isaac Newton ; in essence, it is the Newton interpolation formula, first published in his Principia Mathematica in 1687, namely the discrete analog of the continuum Taylor expansion,

In 1687, Isaac Newton in Principia Mathematica showed that this was because the Earth was not a true sphere but slightly oblate ( flattened at the poles ) from the effect of centrifugal force due to its rotation, causing gravity to increase with latitude.

In 1687, Sir Isaac Newton published his Principia, in which he outlined his laws of gravity and motion.

Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica, Latin for " Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy ", often referred to as simply the Principia, is a work in three books by Sir Isaac Newton, first published 5 July 1687.

In 1687 Isaac Newton published his Principia, which not only laid the foundations for classical mechanics and gravitation but also explained a variety of geophysical phenomena such as the tides and the precession of the equinox.

* 1687 — Sir Isaac Newton's laws describe large-scale motion throughout the universe

In 1687 Isaac Newton explained the cause of this motion in his theory of gravitation.

Over a century later precession was explained in Isaac Newton's Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica ( 1687 ) to be a consequence of gravitation ( Evans 1998, p. 246 ).

It was realized by the scientists of the day, and proven by Isaac Newton in 1687, that this was due to the fact that the Earth was not a perfect sphere but slightly oblate ; it was thicker at the equator because of the Earth's rotation.

Modern analytic celestial mechanics started over 300 years ago with Isaac Newton's Principia of 1687.

In the mathematically-predictive hard sciences developing arguments ' from fundamentals ' would usually involve a very long repetition of known work, and is not practicable ; some reliance on authoritative prior scientific consensus is the norm, either with citation or not, e. g. a paper invoking Newton's laws of motion, formulated in 1687, does not in general include a formal citation to Isaac Newton, although it is implied.

The cosmological principle is first clearly asserted in the Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica ( 1687 ) of Isaac Newton.

Isaac Newton published more general laws of celestial motion in his 1687 book, Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica.

His major works include The Chinese Convert ( 1687 ); a series of four portraits of Isaac Newton painted at various junctures of the latter's life ; a series of ten reigning European monarchs, including King Louis XIV of France ; over 40 " Kit-cat portraits " of members of the Kit-Cat Club ; and ten " beauties " of the court of William III, to match a similar series of ten beauties of the court of Charles II painted by his predecessor as court painter, Sir Peter Lely.

The early history of astronautics is theoretical: the fundamental mathematics of space travel was established by Isaac Newton in his 1687 treatise Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica.

The university also holds Sir Isaac Newton's Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica, first published 5 July 1687 and Oscar Wilde's manuscript of The Duchess of Padua from 1883.

In 1687, Isaac Newton published Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica, which provided an explanation for Kepler's laws in terms of universal gravitation and what came to be known as Newton's laws of motion.

* 1687: Isaac Newton published " Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica " which contains the Newton's laws of motion

Some examples of the term's usage are Isaac Newton's 1687 scientific treatise is known as The Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy and Lord Kelvin and Peter Guthrie Tait's 1867 treatise called Treatise on Natural Philosophy which helped define much of modern physics.
