Best Answer

Gottfried Liebniz and Isaac newton are credited with co-developing the Calculus, based on work from Archimedes, Cavalieri, and others.

But only Newton also studied gravity, and attempted to come up with a theory about how and why it worked.

Isaac Newton developed calculus and the Law of Universal Gravitation. Leibnitz was also developing calculus in a slightly different form, at the same time that Newton developed it.

The great English scientist Sir Isaac Newton!


What Did Isaac Barrow Do?

He is responsible for the FTC, or fundamental theorem of calculus.


What are the differences between newtonian calculus and lebniz calculus?

Leibniz's contribution was more on developing the theoretical basis and the notation whereas Newton's was more in its application.


Are calculus and linear algebra courses hard for an individual who got an a plus in algebra?

you don't go from algebra to calculus and linear algebra. you go from algebra to geometry to advanced algebra with trig to pre calculus to calculus 1 to calculus 2 to calculus 3 to linear algebra. so since you got an A+ in algebra, I think you are good.


Who is father of differential calculus?

The mathematician who formalised differential calculus and who is responsible for the notation in use today is Gottfried Leibniz. However, in has calculation of pi, Aristotle used the principle of convergent series and limits more than 2000 years earlier.


Will calculus be hard for you as an individual if you got an A plus in algebra?

There is no way to know. Some aspects of calculus depend on a good understanding of algebra, others don't. It all depends on which aspects of algebra you were good at and also whether or not you retain that edge.


Which is harder calculus or applied calculus?

Calculus; by a long shot.


Is elementary calculus the same as calculus?

Pre-calculus refers to concepts that need to be learned before, or as a prerequisite to studying calculus, so no. First one studies pre-calculus then elementary calculus.


Which is harder calculus 1 or differential and integral calculus?

Just about all of calculus is based on differential and integral calculus, including Calculus 1! However, Calculus 1 is more likely to cover differential calculus, with integral calculus soon after. So there really isn't a right answer for this question.


What is a synonym for calculus?

Calculus is calculus. There isn't really another word for it.


What is the plural form of calculus?

There are several meanings to the word 'calculus.' The plural for calculus is 'calculi.' There is no plural for the calculus we use in mathematics.


What did Kepler discover about the shape of the planets orbits?

All orbits are ellipses, a sort of oval. Kepler's laws didn't give people enough information to actually calculate an orbit, but his work was fundamental to Isaac newton's work in developing theories of gravity and developing calculus.
