What else can I help you with?
Which new technology enabled Galileo to make observations that supported the idea of a sun-centred solar system?
Why, the telescope, of course! Using his telescope, Galileo was able to make observations of the heavens in a way no one else was able to before.
What does a pulsar emit to prove its existence?
Humans are able to detect pulsars when one of their beams crosses paths with the Earth. When this happens, we are able to detect the resulting electromagnetic radiation in the radar spectrum.
Which planet has the Galilean moons orbiting around it?
Jupiter. The "Galilean" moons are the four largest moons, which are so large that Galileo was able to see them orbiting Jupiter even with his relatively modest telescope.
How could rockets and bombs prove that the American flag was still flying during the night?
The light from the red glare you would be able to see it.
Is there really a heaven above?
There is no definite answer to this question. A religious person would tell you without a doubt that yes there is. A devout athiest would tell you that there is not a heaven. Both would be wrong, you see if there is indeed a heaven then you have to die to go there (pretty convenient way of keeping people from trying to prove/disprove this theory). But for someone to say that they know for a fact that there is no heaven would be ignorant because just as religion has not been able to prove there is a heaven, science has not been able to prove that there is not.
Who developed a stronger telescope and was able to prove that Ptolemy's theories about the moon were wrong?
Galileo Galilei constructed telescopes to conduct his observations. He also disproved the Ptolemaic model.
Is a scientific hypothesis accepted if there is no way way to prove that the hypothesis is wrong?
No. Not being able to prove something is NOT the same as it being true.
What is meant by saying that a hypothesis is must be testable?
A 'testable' hypothesis is one in which you are able to conduct experiments in able to prove right or wrong.
What makes a petition to occur after the election was done?
Someone believes that someone cheated or the count was wrong or done wrong or something was done illegally. You better be able to prove it.
What were the Americans able to prove at the battle of Saratoga?
they were able to prove that they were stupid heads!!!!!
What are some things that motivate you?
Money is a big motivator for people. Being able to prove people wrong is also something that people use to motivate them.
How were the contributions of nicolaus Copernicus and Galileo galilei to the scientific to the scientific revolution different?
Copernicus created the mathematical theory to prove that the Sun, not the Earth, was the centre of our solar system. Galilei provided the calculations and observations to prove Copernicus' theory.
How did living during the Renaissance affect Galileo Galilei?
It was hard life time to accomplish great things but Galileo was able to
How were the contributions of Nicolaus Copernicus and Galileo Galileo to the scientific revolution different?
Galileo used more advanced technology to find stronger observational evidence than Copernicus was ever able to provide.
In New York if the police officer writes a speeding ticket with the wrong date of offense can you get it dismissed?
Yes. Just be able to prove where you were at the time written on the ticket. Can you PROVE beyond a shadow of a doubt that you were somewhere else at the time/date on the ticket?
What did Galileo think the craters on the moon were?
they thought it was holes to be able to dump in them
What did Galileo do on the tower of Pisa?
There were two Until Galileo's experiment, it was widely believed that large objects fell to Earth faster than small ones. That is, it was thought that if two objects of different sizes were dropped from the same height, the larger one would strike the ground first. Galileo showed that not to be the case. But his experiment was extraordinary for another reason. Galileo discredited another Aristotlian idea: that natural phenomena could be explained solely via analysis. Up until Galileo's time, the scientific method had yet to be developed; experimentation was largely unheard of. Proving or disproving a hypothesis via experimentation was not done. Aristotle and his peers believed that natural laws were discovered through discussion and argumentation, and the philosopher who articulated and defended his theories most persuasively was credited with their discovery. Validation through experimentation was not required.He dropped two cannonballs of different masses from the tower and watched them hit the ground at the same time, disproving Aristotle's theory that mass affects the gravity in acted on an object. He proving that mass doesn't matter but air resistance does. But, it was never proved the experiment was done at the leaning tower of Pisa.Debates had started up on one of aristoles laws of nature, that heavier objects fell faster than lighter objects. Galileo wanted to try. He needed to be able to drop the weights from a tall height. The perfect building was The leaning tower of Pisa that was 54 metres tall. He dropped the 2 weights and found out that aristole was wrong. Because the two weights fell at the same time.
