According to Galileo, what would happen if you drop a 5 and 10 pound ball at the same time from the Leaning Tower of Pisa? Why?

1 answer

According to Galileo, the two balls would hit the ground at the same time. This is because, according to Galileo's law of falling bodies, all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their mass. Therefore, the 5 pound ball and the 10 pound ball would fall at the same rate and reach the ground at the same time.
