Galileo's discovery that a pendulum's period (time for one swing) remains constant regardless of the amplitude (distance swung) was significant as it led to the development of accurate timekeeping devices like pendulum clocks. This insight into the regularity of pendulum motion also laid the foundation for the study of simple harmonic motion in physics.

Why is it called a deadblow mallet?

When the surface is struck the initial hit is just the rubber face and the plastic or metal housing of the mallet, the significant force if from the weight inside moving from the back of the hammer to the striking face after it is struck. So the significant blow comes when the hammer is not moving or dead. This helps keep the surface that is being struck from being damaged.
