Here are some of the discoveries that has made.Three of his discoveries that I will be discussing will be the color spectrum‚gravity‚and the three laws of motion.He

Experiment 3.1 Newton’s Second Law of Motion Aim: To investigate the relationship between net force‚ mass and acceleration Hypothesis: Since Newton’s second law of motion states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the total force acting upon that object‚ we can assume that the more mass being pulled down on the cart the greater the acceleration of it will be and therefore the greater its net force will be. Apparatus: Wheeled carts Pulleys Balance

Science had some answers for things‚ however since they questioned those things they were able to get to truth. Galileo was born in 1564. He was a professor of mathematics. It is a common misconception that Galileo invented the telescope. However‚ that is not true. Galileo was the first person to look at the sky through a telescope
