Galileo Galilei Galileo Galilei (Pisa‚ February 15‚ 1564 Arcetri‚ January 8‚ 1642)‚ was a Tuscan astronomer‚ philosopher‚ and physicist who is closely associated with the scientific revolution. His achievements include improving the telescope‚ a variety of astronomical observations‚ the first law of motion‚ and supporting Copernicanism effectively. He has been referred to as the "father of modern astronomy‚" as the "father of modern physics‚" and as "father of science." His experimental work

Introduction: Capture and recapture is a method to observe animals‚ give information on survival‚ recruitment‚ and size of the population. You capture the animals and mark them and release them. Mark and release repeatedly. Objective: The purpose of this experiment was to analyze the amount of marked beans of the beans we would catch. Hypothesis: If the number of marked beans represents the number of the mocking jays in the forest and the unmarked beans are the food supply then the mocking jays population

mathematician Galileo Galilei. Galileo made fundamental contributions to the world of mathematics and science. His mathematical studies on parabolic trajectories influenced and changed the study of motion. He changed the ways of philosophy from verbal to mathematics. He also invented the telescope. This paper will focus on Galileo Galilei’s life and some of his scientific and mathematical works. Index Terms—Copernican Theory‚ Galileo Galilei‚ Study of Motion‚ Telescope. I.

Objective: One objective was to figure out if the burnt Mg ashes weigh more than the product which is Magnesium Metal. Another objective was determining the formula of the compound that results when Magnesium and Oxygen react. Theory: The purpose of this lab was to confirm the chemical formula of magnesium oxide by comparing the masses of pure magnesium solid prior to any reaction and magnesium oxide solid after a reaction between all of the magnesium and oxygen from the air when heated from a Bunsen burner

RESEARCH QUESTION How does the glucose concentration effects the time taken for the potassium permanganate to decolourise from purple to colourless ? HYPOTHESIS The higher the glucose concentration the shorter the time taken for the potassium permanganate to decolourise from purple to colourless.

Purpose: We are doing this experiment to find the best ratio of potassium nitrate to powdered sugar for a model rocket motor that will create the most thrust. We are also testing if adding fins will affect the flight distance of the rocket. Hypothesis: The best ratio for potassium nitrate to powdered sugar is 1 to 3 because Grant Thompson‚ who has experimented with the best ratio of powdered sugar to potassium nitrate‚ has stated that “The 1 to 3 ratio is best for creating the most amount of thrust

tablets. In the experiment they first tested how long an Alka-Seltzer tablet would dissolve in cold water ( 9 degrees) then repeated it two more times in order to calculate a mean. Then using a hot plate to heat the water‚ they tested another tablet in the hot water (51 degrees) to see how long it would take to dissolve and again did it two more times to calculate a mean. Finally they tested another tablet in water left on the hot plate for thirty-seconds (81 degrees)‚ preformed the experiment for two more

Galileo‚ Descartes‚ and Newton were only some of the enlightened thinkers responsible for the shift in scientific understanding. Previously‚ science in Europe did little without relying on the church‚ but these scientific thinkers set the stage for a modern scientific model that separated the spiritual from the physical and strived to learn the natural laws that governed the physical world. Each one of these men‚ through their different researches‚ helped Europe see a world that was not necessarily
