What did Galileo try to prove?

Answer 1

He wanted to, demonstrate the rate that objects of different sizes and weight fell. He found that regardless of weight and size, the objects, in this case cannonballs, hit the ground at the same time.

Answer 2

Galileo was not a scientist-scientific method had yet to be created. He wasn't questioning things as much as trying to put across the viewpoint that the Earth revolves around the Sun, though he had many astrological discoveries.

Answer 3

He was testing whether heavier objects, in his case-different sizes of cannon balls, fell at a faster rate. He found out that they did not. The smallest shot and the largest shot hit the earth from the same height at the same time when released together.

Answer 4

Galileo sought to prove the heliocentric model of the solar system, which placed the Sun at the center with the planets, including Earth, in orbit around it. This contradicted the prevailing geocentric model that positioned Earth at the center of the universe. His observations through a telescope provided evidence to support the heliocentric theory proposed by Copernicus.

Answer 5

That all the planets revolved around the Sun and not the Earth

Answer 6

His principle one, that got him into heavy bother with the Vatican, was the solar-centric solar-system rather than the officially-approved, Aristotelian geocentric universe.

Answer 7

he wanted to acomplish the makeing of a telescope because he wanted to see objects in bigger size!

Answer 8

he wasn't trying to prove a theory.
