What else can I help you with?
Which scientist first thought that the amount of time it takes an object to fall does not depend on the objects mass?
Galileo Galilei is credited with first proposing that the rate of descent of an object is constant and not affected by its mass. This was a significant departure from the prevailing belief at the time.
Is the cat in Schrdinger's thought experiment alive or dead?
In Schrdinger's thought experiment, the cat is considered to be both alive and dead until the box is opened and its state is observed.
What thought experiment did Erwin Schrodinger create?
Erwin Schrödinger created the famous "Schrödinger's Cat" thought experiment to illustrate the paradox of quantum superposition. In this experiment, a cat in a sealed box is both alive and dead at the same time until the box is opened and its state is observed.
The variable that can be thought of what changed?
The independent variable is the variable that is manipulated or changed in an experiment to observe its effect on the dependent variable.
What is the significance of Einstein's elevator thought experiment in the field of physics?
Einstein's elevator thought experiment is significant in physics because it helped illustrate the principle of equivalence between gravitational and inertial forces. This concept laid the foundation for his theory of general relativity, which revolutionized our understanding of gravity and the structure of the universe.
Why did Galileo use a thought experiment instead of working with real object?
He got a car and did do
I couldn't find this anywhere when did Galileo Galilei's acceleration experiment happen?
If you're referring to dropping the balls off the tower of Pisa, that didn't actually happen. It was just a thought experiment.
How did Galileo think?
Galileo,thought wery badly.
Why Galileo's thought experiment about the ball rolling forever on a level surface could only be a thought experiment?
Schrödinger's exp involved a cat placed inside a box w/ a vial of poisonous gas, released when an radioactive atom decays. Awnser by Jake Henderson

What Galileo experiment did Neil Armstrong do when on the moon?
Armstrong didn't actually do an experiment related to Galileo during the Apollo 11 mission, but there was one carried out on Apollo 15. This related to an experiment that Galileo was supposed to have conducted from the Leaning Tower of Pisa, dropping items of different masses. Aristotle had said that objects of different masses would fall at different speeds, but some people thought differently. Galileo did not in fact record actually doing this, and it is believed that it was really just a "thought experiment". The best way to try this out is in a vacuum, so that there is no air resistance, and the size and shape of the objects being used won't make any difference. So on Apollo 15, Dave Scott, the mission commander, dropped a geological hammer and a feather. If they reached the ground at the same time, this would prove that Galileo's view was correct. This is exactly what happened; the hammer and the feather fell slowly in the Moon's 1/6 gravity and hit the ground together.
What would happen if a fatman jumps off Big ben?
the exact same thing as any person, it is thought that it would be worse but its not, if you are still wondering research Galileo's falling bodies experiment

Who thought that the sun is at the center of the system of planets?
Galileo Galile
How was Galileo's telescope invented?
he thought of it and guess what boom it appeared
Galileo thought the creation of new compounds?
Galileo thought the creation of new compounds must involve the rearrangement of atoms. According to Stephen Hawking, Galileo probably bears more of the responsibility for the birth of modern science than anybody else.
Did Galileo really drop weights off the Leaning Tower of Pisa or is it just a fun myth?
Viviani, a student of Galileo, wrote about his mentor actually dropping a ten pound weight and a one pound weight off the Leaning Tower of Pisa to demonstrate that they would fall at the same rate. There is no evidence from Galileo himself that he he did the experiment. Since he didn't actually write about doing the experiment, science historians believe that it was not done. He did develop a very interesting thought experiment that led to a contradiction, and to his conclusion that the rate of descent would be the same. See the link below for a fun video of the experiment being carried out on the moon.
