Explore the connection between Galileo's concepts of inertia and acceleration and Newton's laws of motion. Test your understanding with intriguing scenarios involving forces and objects in motion.
E N D
Galileo is credited with being the first to identify the concept of inertia and the first to develop the concept of acceleration. And like others, he discussed forces. But he didn’t connect these basic concepts. Which law of Newton makes the connection that Galileo missed? 1. First Law of Motion 2. Second Law of Motion 3. Third Law of Motion 4. Law of Universal Gravitation
