On the day this question was asked (Wednesday 16th October, 2013), no, the moon was waxing gibbous and was full on Saturday 19th October, 2013.
The story of the apple falling on Isaac Newton's head is a popularized version of the events that led him to develop his theory of gravity. Newton's law of universal gravitation describes the attraction between objects with mass, like the apple and Earth, and explains how the moon stays in orbit around Earth.
Isaac Newton did not discover gravity. Practically everybody already knew that when you let go of something in your hand, it falls to the ground, and nobody paid any attention to the few who didn't know it. What Isaac Newton did was explain exactly how it works, with numbers. With that simple new knowledge, it was possible to explain how and why the moon revolves around the Earth, how the planets and comets revolve around the sun, and how to launch spacecraft that can carry people to the moon, land cameras on Mars, sail probes out of the solar system, and hang satellites up in the sky that can bring you 900 TV channels that have nothing on. Of course, if none of that is useful or interesting to you, then Newton's discovery wasn't important.
The popular story is that Isaac Newton, after watching the fall of an apple, postulated that the same force that caused the apple to fall perpendicular to the earth's surface could, if it were to exert an influence far enough out from the planet, hold the moon in its orbit. From this specific case, he then expanded his theory to encompass the reason planets were kept in their orbits around the sun.
Yes for every action there will be an EQUAL and opposite reaction. This is Newton's third law
Isaac Newton never walked on the Moon.
Sir Isaac Newton never walked on the Moon.
no he only dicovered the moon
1. Isaac Newton's discoveries about light and movement of planets were used to make the first flights to the moon possible.
Some of isaac newtons inventions is a telescope to study the stars and moon.
Issac observed the moon godess and zues
No made it first and discovered the moon
Isaac Newton believed there was a force acting on the moon because he observed that the moon's motion could be explained by the same laws of motion and gravity that govern objects on Earth.
Issac Newton collected data connected with the moon's irregular orbit motions. He relied upon the refractory lenses he had developed.
he proved that there was a force called gravity. the moon's gravity causes water to rise.
Isaac Newton developed the theory of gravity. When an apple hit him on the head, he asked, "Why did that apple fall down instead of up?" Then he looked at the moon and wondered why it does not fall down. He had to come up with the branch of mathematics called calculus to figure it out.
Isaac Newton discovered that the moon's gravity caused tides on Earth through his theory of universal gravitation, which explains how objects with mass attract each other. He described how the gravitational pull of the moon affects the oceans, causing two high tides and two low tides each day.
