What evidence did sir isaac newton use to support his particle explanation of light?

Particle is moving with the speed of light then why Newton's laws are not applicable?
The breakdown of Newton's laws is not your biggest problem with that situation. The main problem is the fact that the system which you have postulated is impossible. No particle to which Newton's laws might be expected to apply at all ... i.e. particles with mass ... can move with the speed of light.
Did sir isaac newton support the biblical account of creation?
True.
What physicist was the chief architect of the particle theory of light?
It was Max Planck who used the particle theory of light.
Why is newton credited with developing the law of gravitation?
Newton was the first to propose that there was a force of attraction between matter. He called this force gravity somewhat to counter Aristotle's explanation that things rose because of "levity". Newton said things fell because of gravity.

Who created the particle theory of matter?
newton
What did newton think about particle theory?
he though it was good lol
In what state light is made up of particle according to newton?
Newton believed that light is made up of particles, period.
Was Sir Isaac Newton a free mason?
Well, no, is more accurate. There is much speculation, but no tangible evidence to support the claim that Sir Issac Newton was a Freemason. The Grand Lodge of England, which is happy to proclaim the membership of any well respected personages, such as Newton, makes no such claim to his membership.

Which scientist give explanation to the behavior of falling bodies?
Sir Isaac Newton
Do Newton's laws of motion offer a comprehensive explanation of all physical forces?
No, they do not.
This scientist first published a document that stated that every particle in the universe is attracted to every other particle with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses?
sir Issac newton
Find 2 news article on isaac newton's something to do with newton's law of gravity or newton's third law of motion?
Three fundamental principles which form the basis of classical mechanics. They are stated as follows: First law: A particle not subjected to external forces remains at rest or moves with constant speed in a straight line. Second law: The acceleration of a particle is directly proportional to the resultant external force acting on the particle and is inversely proportional to the mass of the particle. Third law: If two particles interact, the force exerted by the first particle on the second particle (called the action force) is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force exerted by the second particle on the first particle (called the reaction force). The newtonian laws have proved valid for all mechanical problems not involving speeds comparable with the speed of light and not involving atomic or sub atomic particles ----
Did isaac newton support the biblical account of creation?
True.
Who discovered light can move?
Christiaan Huygens and Isaac Newton were both responsible for the knowledge we have today on the motion of light. Huygens proposed his wave theory for light's motion and Newton proposed the particle theory in the 17th century. It is accepted today that light moves in both wave form and particle form at once.
