The heliocentric model already existed for about a century before‚ but Galileo provided

Purpose: During our lab‚ Galileo’s Water Clock‚ we created our lab to describe the motion of a ball on a plane using the water clock as an alternative method for measuring time. Our main purpose in this lab was to determine if the displacement of the ball is determined by the time or the time squared. Procedure: Once the water clock was set up‚ a ball was let go from the ramp at various distances for three trials each. Once the ball was let go‚ the water clamp was opened and then immediately

By defining his epic theatre he created
