Sir Isaac Newton is credited with first describing the force of gravity in his book "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica" published in 1687.
Sir Isaac Newton is credited with understanding that gravity is the force of attraction between two masses. He formulated the law of universal gravitation in his work "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica" published in 1687.
The one who discovered the Law Of Gravity is SIR ISAAC NEWTON
Gravity was always present, however it was first formally described/quantified by Issac Newton at his house at Woolsthorpe-by-Colsterworth, in England in December 1684 (when the first description was entered in the Royal Society archive).
Gravity is a force that exists, it is not like someone thought of it and then simply things started to fall down. It is very likely mankind discovered that things fell down after being thrown up at early stages of their development. As for any scientific theory of gravity, describing in mathematical terms what it does, this is usually credited to Isaac Newton who published his equation in 1687.
Sir Isaac Newton formulated his theory of gravity in 1687, with the publication of his groundbreaking work, "Principia Mathematica." This theory described the force of gravity as a universal force of attraction between all objects possessing mass.
Isaac Newton discovered the force of gravity, which continues to influence and affect us today.
Isaac Newton discovered the universal law of gravitation in 1687.
Sir Isaac Newton is credited with conducting experiments and developing the theory of gravity in the late 17th century. His work on gravity culminated in his famous publication "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica" in 1687.
The concept of gravity has been studied since ancient times, but Sir Isaac Newton is best known for introducing the law of universal gravitation in 1687, which described how objects with mass attract each other.
When the first monkey fell out of a tree. Newton published his Law of Universal Gravitation in 1687, though certainly people before then knew about gravity in general... Hooke in particular had suggested that it fell off as the square of the distance some time in the 1660s.
Gravity was discovered 3 centuries ago by a mathematician and physicist named Sir Isaac Newton. He discovered that there is a specific force,which we call gravity, that is required to change the speed or direction of something that is moving. This same force he figured must cause apples to fall from trees!
