Calculus was created by Isaac Newton, a British scientist, as well as Gottfried Leibniz, a self-taught German mathematician, in the 17th century. Using calculus, Newton explained (in the Principia); • why tides occur • why the shapes of planetary orbits are conic sections (ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas) • Kepler’s 3 Laws of planetary motion • shape of a rotating body of fluid • etc, etc, etc x��][�%�q����\v0;ڋ�&KgeI>#{��;[�;0y��@�<9�� 2`�����.�9����Gg�l�X��W�"�_w�\$�n������p�?��E�z��I~���_/���_��~���߽��N�iY���? 7+( +,6725< 2) &\$/&8/86 \$57+85 526(17+\$/ 3xugxh 8qlyhuvlw\ (yhu\rqh nqrzv wkdw 1hzwrq dqg /hleql] duh wkh irxqghuv ri &dofxoxv 6rph pd\ wklqn lw vxiilfhv wr nqrz mxvw wklv rqh idfw %xw lw lv zruwkzkloh lq hޜ��n�8�_��-�σ�@Q����Y;� r!˴��,9�&}���k����&g�� ���q&�dB(�iȘ怉�t.
