List of Physics Scientists and Their Inventions

John Dalton

John Dalton’s major contribution was his theory on atoms which consists of five parts as follows:

• 
  Atoms are made of tiny particles known as atoms
  
• 
  Atoms are indivisible and indestructible
  
• 
  Atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass, and chemical properties
  
• 
  In a chemical reaction, atoms separate, combine and rearrange
  

Dalton made a lot of discoveries based on his observations.

Isaac Newton

Isaac Newton’s discoveries created a launchpad for future developments in science. His most noteworthy innovations were as follows:

• 
  Newton’s three laws of motion set the foundation for modern classical mechanics.
  
• 
  The discovery of gravitational force gave us the ability to predict the movement of heavenly bodies.
  
• 
  His discovery of the calculus gave us a potent mathematical tool, aiding the precise analytical treatment of the physical world.
  

Isaac Newton is one of the greatest mathematicians and physicists of all time, and his inventions and discoveries widened the reach of human thoughts.
