None of Newton's theories has ever been 'proved' right, and none of them can
ever be proved. They're all "just theories". They just happen to do the best job
of explaining everything we see happening around us, and of predicting things
that we find to be true when we look for them, and they've been doing it for
more than 300 years. But if you come up with another theory tomorrow that
gives a simpler or more accurate explanation for what we see happening
around us, and makes more accurate predictions of things that we find to be
true when we look for them, then Physicists and Astronomers will toss Newton's
theories and adopt yours. Einstein, Feynman, Schwinger, Weinberg, and Hawking
have already started on that process, but Newton is still pretty safe when it
comes to describing our everyday experiences as human beings on earth.
That's how science works. The ball is in your court.
Isaac newton's theory of gravity was first proposed in his book "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica" in 1687. It was later confirmed and proven to be correct through experiments and observations by scientists like Robert Hooke and the observations of the motion of planets by astronomers such as Edmond Halley.

Who was Galileo and what did he do How did he prove the heliocentric theory?
He was an Italian scientist of the 17th century. He did not prove the heliocentric theory. But everyone accepts the heliocentric principle now, after it was proved right; but that happened long after Galileo's time, after new scientific discoveries in the latter half of the 1600s.
Who proved Vespucci right?
Balboa
What is a sentence for heliocentric?
Ptolemy thought that the Earth was the center of solar system and most people believed this theory. But Copernicus thought that the Sun was the center of solar system and most people didn't believed this theory. Who was right? Copernicus was right because later Galileo prove that if the Earth was at the center then he couldn't see the phases of Venus. Sentences for heliocentric. Galileo proved that the Copernicus's theory which was heliocentric was right.
The vector sum of 3 newtons and 4 newtons?
The vector sum of 3 newtons and 4 newtons can be found by adding them as vectors. This would result in a total force of 5 newtons, calculated using the Pythagorean theorem since the forces are at right angles to each other.
Did Isaac Newton discover how to measure volume?
not that I know of, if I'm right, it was Archimedes.
Is the Spacial theory of relativity is right?
Yeah it is because he proved it by transferring matter from the speed of light by infusing them.
Is Margaret malone a witch?
it is proved that margaret malone is a witch with the we witch woman on the bus and keeping it a secret from the wolfpack, ryan copeland proved the theory right so shut up
An apple falling from a tree helped Sir Isaac Newton come up with what?
The theory of universal Gravitation. Got it right on Odyssey :)
What is Isaac newtons first law motion?
Isaac Newton's first law of motion deals with forces and changes in velocity. For just a moment, let us imagine that you can apply only one force to an object. That is, you could choose push the object to the right or you could choose to push it to the left, but not to the left and right at the same time, and also not up and to the right at the same time, and so on.
When was the discovery of the Milky Way and the Galexy?
When the telescope was made, and when the astronauts could go to space, that was when the Milky Way and the Whole Galaxy theory was proved right.
What s the net force of 212 newtons right and 178 newtons left?
The net force is 34 newtons directed to the right.
Which theory of government claims that the king connects the heavens and the earth?
the divine right theory
Who was Nickolaus Copernicus and what was his famous theory?
He had a theory that the earth revolved around the sun. Hundreds of years later, scientists proved he was right. Back then, everybody believed Aristotle and they thought the earth was at the center of the universe and everything revolved around it. Galileo kind of based his theory on that too, but it was Copernicus who thought of it.
What celestical body is at the center of your solar system?
As proposed by the Heliocentric Theory, the Sun is the center of the Solar System.

What was the importance of Rutherford's experimental results and predictions being the same?
it proved that his idea was potentially right
