Why was the discovery of Neptune a major confirmation of Newton's law of gravitaion?

There were anomalies in Uranus' orbit that astronomers thought could be evidence of another planet pulling it out of orbit. This theory was later confirmed. It supports the law of gravitation because of Neptune's exertion of a force on Uranus that caused it to have a different orbit than predicted.

What planet was predicted based on gravitational forces and newtons laws?
Neptune, based on observations of Uranus.
Isaac Newtons most famous discovery and when did he discover it?
i don't know when, but i do think that his most famous discovery was his most famous equation. f =ma. force=mass times acceleration.
How many kg does a discovery 3 weigh?
None. A discovery 3 has a mass that can be measured in kilograms, or a weight that can be measured in Newtons, but not a weight that is measured in kilograms: a kilogram is not a unit for measuring weight.
Isaac Newton field of science?

The force of gravitation between two objects is 500 Newtons what would be the force of gravitaion if the distance between these two objects increased by ten times?
500/(10)2 = 500/100 = 5 newtons.
What was newtons great discovery?
Isaac Newtons great Discovery was when an apple fell on his head and he realised that it had fallen because of Gravitational pull.

Why is isaac newtons discovery important?
He, along with his contemporaries, laid the foundations for modern science.
What is the weight of an object that weighs 20 Newton on earth?
It's exactly 20 newtons on Earth, 3.31 newtons on the moon, 7.54 newtons on Mercury, 18.06 newtons on Venus, 7.59 newtons on Mars, and 1.19 newtons on Pluto. It's hard to say anything about Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, or Neptune, because none of those has a solid surface that we're sure of.
