Extractions: died: 3 March 1703 in London, England (now UK) Hooke is noted as one of the greatest experimental scientists of the 17th Century. He was responsible for Hooke's Law of elasticity, formulated ideas for the anchor-escapement of clocks and balance-springs in watches, created the first Gregorian reflecting telescope which he used to imply that Jupiter rotated and to discover Orion's fifth star, contributed designs of the marine barometer, the quadrant, the compound microscope and the universal joint. Robert Hooke studied at Westminster School and later at Christ Church, Oxford in 1653, where he worked as an assistant to John Wilkins (during his work on flight) and Robert Boyle (during his work on air-pump construction). In 1660 Hooke found possily his most famous discovery: Hooke's Law of elasticity, which explained how elastic materials extend. Hooke was appointed as the first Curator of Experiments to the newly formed Royal Society in 1662, and later became secretary of the organisation (from 1667 to 1683). He was also appointed Professor of Physics at Gresham College, London, in 1665. Also in that year, Hooke published

Search Inventors Robert Hooke (1635-1703) By Mary Bellis In 1665, the English physicist Robert Hooke looked at a sliver of cork through a microscope lens and noticed some "pores" or "cells" in it. Robert Hooke believed the cells had served as containers for the "noble juices" or "fibrous threads" of the once-living cork tree. He thought these cells existed only in plants, since he and his scientific contemporaries had observed the structures only in plant material. Robert Hooke wrote Micrographia, the first book describing observations made through a microscope. The drawing to the top left was created by Hooke. Hooke was the first person to use the word "cell" to identify microscopic structures when he was describing cork. Hooke also wrote Hooke's Law a law of elasticity for solid bodies.

Extractions: Print entire article Hooke and his contemporaries Most who have studied some science will have come across Hooke's Law, that the extension of a spring is proportional to the applied force, but few will know of his theory of combustion or that his Micrographia was the first book on microscopy; that his astronomical observations were some of the best seen at the time and that there is a Hooke crater on the moon, named in his honour; that he contributed to knowledge of respiration, insect flight and the properties of gases; that his work on gravitation preceded Newton's; that he invented the universal joint and the anchor escapement in clocks and numerous other mechanical devices; and that he was an architect of distinction and a Surveyor for the City of London after the Great Fire. Everyone knows the names of Newton and Wren, but Hooke was as distinguished and deserves similar recognition. That he lacks such recognition stems from a mixture of temperament and bad luck.

Extractions: (b. July 18, 1635, Freshwater, Isle of Wight, Eng.d. March 3, 1703, London), English physicist who discovered the law of elasticity, known as Hooke's law, and who did research in a remarkable variety of fields. In 1655 Hooke was employed by Robert Boyle to construct the Boylean air pump. Five years later, Hooke discovered his law of elasticity, which states that the stretching of a solid body ( e.g., metal, wood) is proportional to the force applied to it. The law laid the basis for studies of stress and strain and for understanding of elastic materials. He applied these studies in his designs for the balance springs of watches. In 1662 he was appointed curator of experiments to the Royal Society of London and was elected a fellow the following year. One of the first men to build a Gregorian reflecting telescope, Hooke discovered the fifth star in the Trapezium, an asterism in the constellation Orion, in 1664 and first suggested that Jupiter rotates on its axis. His detailed sketches of Mars were used in the 19th century to determine that planet's rate of rotation. In 1665 he was appointed professor of geometry in Gresham College. In Micrographia (1665; "Small Drawings") he included his studies and illustrations of the crystal structure of snowflakes, discussed the possibility of manufacturing artificial fibres by a process similar to the spinning of the silkworm, and first used the word cell to name the microscopic honeycomb cavities in cork. His studies of microscopic fossils led him to become one of the first proponents of a theory of evolution. (see also

Extractions: Robert Hooke geboren in Freshwater (Isle of Wight) ging in Westminster zur Schule. Dort erlernte er Griechisch und Latein, hat aber im Unterschied zu seinen Zeitgenossen niemals in Latein geschrieben. Er war immer kränkelnd, wahrscheinlich verkrüppelt. In späteren Jahren schrieb er über sich, er habe nie den Luxus genossen, sich während eines ganzen Tages wohl zu fühlen. 1653 ging er in Oxford zur Universität und wurde dort 1655 der Assistent von Boyle. 1662 wurde er Kurator der Experimente in der Royal Society. 1665 Professor der Geometrie am Gresham College, 1677-1682 Sekretär der Royal Society. Hooke arbeitete an astronomischen, physikalischen, biologischen und theologischen Problemen. Für Boyle baute er nach Guerickes Vorbild eine verbesserte Luftpumpe. Er erfand 1648 den optischen Telegraphen und 1658 die Federunruh der Taschenuhren. Bereits 1666 sprach er das quadratische Abstandsgesetz der Gravitationswirkungen aus und fasste als erster die Lichtwellen als transversale Schwingungen auf. Im gleichen Jahr führt er die Libelle zum Horizontalstellen optischer Achsen ein. 1668 bemerkte er die Konstanz der Schmelz- und Siedepunkte. Ferner entdeckte er den zelligen Aufbau des Pflanzenkörpers. 1678 stellte er das Hooksche Gesetz auf. 1684 erfindet er einin optischen Telegraphen. Außerdem konstruierte er ein Quecksilberbarometer,baute ein Spiegelteleskop, erfand einen Regenmesser, die Zahnradsirene und vieles mehr

Extractions: Hooke, Robert Micrographia . London: Printed by Jo. Martyn and Ja. Allestry, 1665. This seminal work on microscopy is more noted for its impressive engravings of magnified insects than for its contributions to lunar topography. The work, however, contains the very first attempt to delineate a particular lunar feature, in this case the crater Hipparchus, which is just south of the center of the moon. Hook also attempted to determine whether lunar craters were formed by impact or by volcanic action. He dropped balls into wet clay to simulate impact, and heated alabaster to produce bubbling volcanoes, and decided that the moon more closely resembled the pock-marked alabaster. To make this drawing, Hooke used a 30-foot long telescope and observed just before first quarter, when the shadows were strong. His drawing can be favorably compared with those of later observers see items 13 and and is a considerable improvement over the undefined circles that appear on the maps of Hevelius or Riccioli. Hooke further suggested that since the floor of Hipparchus reflected less light than the mountain tops, perhaps it was covered with vegetation and might be, in his words, a "fruitful place".

Extractions: Hooke mostrava un certo talento artistico e, quado la morte di suo padre nel 1684 gli procurò una piccola eredità, la sua famiglia lo mandò a Londra a fare pratica presso P. Lely, l'artista. Finì invece alla Westminster School e nel 1653 si spostò a Oxford. Qui arrivò nel momento in cui risiedeva un nutrito gruppo di scienziati, tra i quali J. Wilkins, T. Willis, S. Ward, W. Petty, J. Wallis, C. Wren e R. Boyle, attorno ai quali si doveva poi costituire nel 1660, la Royal Society. Divenne assistente di Boyle e avvalendosi di questa posizione poté avviare una sua carriera autonoma. I primi risultati ottenuti da Hooke furono frutto delle sue capacità in campo Meccanico. Quando Boyle sentì parlare del congegno di O. von Guericke per togliere l'aria da un recipiente, affidò al suo assistente il compito di perfezionarlo. Hooke ideò immediatamente il prototipo della moderna pompa ad aria e prese anche parte alle ricerche che portarono alla legge di Boyle. Egli studiò anche i cronometri, di cui al quel tempo si sentiva acutamente bisogno come ausilio alla navigazione. Come spiegò Hooke stesso, egli aveva pensato di utilizzare "molle al posto della forza di gravità per far vibrare un corpo in qualsiasi posizione".
