Document Summary

Verification of galileo"s & newton"s experiments" on the effects of gravity and momentum. This lab served to prove galileo"s and newton"s past experiments about gravity, acceleration and momentum accurate. Galileo"s past experiments showed that all bodies accelerate in the same way and that the acceleration of gravity is constant for all objects at the surface of the earth. In order to recreate galileo"s experiments and test them for ourselves we performed 2 experiments. These two experiments will answer our questions on how gravity affects acceleration and how a bodies" mass affects acceleration as well. Our third experiment will focus more on newton"s theories. Newton"s first law states that an object"s velocity will not change unless a force acts upon it. Which is a natural consequence of the conservation of momentum. We performed a third experiment to answer our questions on the conservation of momentum. Our first experiment was a recreation of galileo"s experiment.
