SIR ISSAC NEWTON Sir Issac Newton (1642-1727) was an english phisicist and mathematician. When Newton was young, his primary school headmaster asked everyone to add all the numbers from one to one hundred. Issac found that 1 and 100 equals to 101, and so does 2 and 99, 3 and 98. Every two opposite numbers equaled 101, so he multiplied 101 by 50 and got 5050, he showed the headmaster who said it was incorrect before even looking at what he wrote down.He went back …showed first 75 words of 378 total…

He then held up his other prism to the red beam, and the red beam shined throught the prism without changing colour. This could only mean one thing, that pure white light was made up of a spectrum of colours. Sir Issac Newtown was knighted for his findings of gravity and his colour spectrum, but sadly he died in 1727.
