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.
Galileo carried out his first experiment on gravity by dropping weights from the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy. This famous experiment is said to have demonstrated that objects of different masses fall at the same rate due to gravity.
Galileo Galilei was born in Pisa, Italy.
Leaning Tower of Pisa,' proves objects fall at same speed and acceleration'
Galileo Galilei was born in Pisa, Italy.
Galileo Galilei was born in Pisa, Italy and spent most of his childhood there. He later moved to Florence to study at the University of Pisa before eventually settling in Padua where he carried out the majority of his scientific work.
Galileo Galilei
yes.
Galileo was from Italy, so he went to the highest tower he could.
Galileo
Galileo did.
Galileo Discovered Inertia, he dropped two items from the tower of pisa and realized they fell at the same rate of speed which is approximately 9.29 mps2

Galileo Galilei; leaning tower of Pisa.
He tested it standing on top of the leaning tower of Pisa.
