Ten Equations That Changed The World by dominzy(m): 12:14pm On Sep 20, 2017
ISAAC NEWTON'S LAW OF UNIVERSAL GRAVITATION
Newton's laws explains why the planet move the way they do, and how gravity works, both on Earth and throughout the universe. First published in the principia in July 1687, the law of Universal Gravitation was the defacto reference equation for nearly 200 years until Einstein's theory of General Relativity replaced it.

ALBERT EINSTEIN'S THEORY OF RELATIVITY
Einstein's most famous undertaking is the generally accepted theory on relationships between space and time. First proposed in 1905, the theory of Relativity has both radically altered the course of physics, and deepened our knowledge of universe's past, present and future.

THE PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM
The ancient theorem which was first recorded 570-495 B. C is a fundamental principle in Euclidean Geometry,and the basis for the definition of distance between two points. Pythagora's theorem also describes the relationship between the sides of a right triangle on a flat plane.

MAXWELL'S EQUATION
James Clerk Maxwell's set of equations describes how electric and magnetic fields are generated and altered, both by each other and by charges and currents . First published between 1861 & 1862 ,they are to classical electromagnetism what Newton's laws of motion and universal gravitation are to classical mechanics.

THE SECOND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS
Rudolf Claudius' law states that the energy always flow s from higher concentrations to lower concentrations .it also states that whenever energy changes or moves, it becomes less useful. Formulated in 1865, it has led to the development of technologies like internal combustion engines, cryogenics and electricity generation.

LOGARITHMS
logarithms were introduced by John Napier in the early 17th century as a way to simplify calculations. They answer the questions "How many X number we multiply to get Y numbers? " Logarithms were adopted by early navigators, scientists and engineers. Today, scientific calculators and digital computers do the work for us.

CALCULUS
the calculation shown is the definition of the derivatives in differential calculus, one of calculus'two major branches. The derivatives measures the rate at which a quantity is changing.
