Which statement best reflects the Galilean view of vertical motion of a dropped object?

• Heavier objects fall faster than lighter ones.

• All objects, regardless of mass, fall at the same rate in a vacuum.

• The speed of a falling object is constant.

• Fire resistance has no effect on falling objects.

• Object will fall depending on the gravity.

How did Aristotle explain the motion of a projectile of a thrown object?

• It has a constant horizontal motion and a separate, naturally accelerating downward motion.

• A mysterious force called "impetus" propels it horizontally until it runs out.

• It follows a perfectly straight line.

• It needs continuous pushing to stay in motion.

• It is a natural motion.

Who claimed that heavy and light objects drop in the same way?

• Newton

• Galileo

• Ptolemy

• Tycho Brahe

• Aristotle

An object moving in a ________ requires push and pull to maintain a horizontal motion.

• Vertical Motion

• Projectile Motion

• Natural Motion

• Violent Motion

• Impetus

He viewed that the projectile motion as natural and violent. He said that heavy objects fall faster than the light one. Who stated this?

• Galileo

• Aristotle

• Newton

• Herobrine

• Plato

According to Galileo. By varying the ball's horizontal velocity and vertical drop, Galileo was able to determine that the path of a projectile is ______.

• Systematic

• Parabolic

• Unimpeded

• Impeded

• Impetus

Kind of motion that requires natural motion, or that the object will return to it's natural state.

Which of the following best suits the explanation of Aristotle about Arrows shoot from a bow?

• Initial motive force transfers to the medium initially surrounding the object a "power" to act as a motive force.

• Initial motive force transfers to the medium in the end surrounding the object a "power" to act as a motive force.

• Initial motive force transfers to the medium initially surrounding the object a "power" to act as a locomotive force.

• Initial motive force do not transfer to the medium initially surrounding the object a "power" to act as a motive force.

• Initial motive force transfers to the medium initially surrounding the object a "weakness" to act as a non locomotive force.

Which of the following statements are correct?

1. 1. Geometry is used to provide better description (cinematics) of projectile motion whereby horizontal motion has zero acceleration (constant speed horizontally) and content vertical acceleration.

2. 2. By varying the ball's horizontal velocity and vertical drop, Aristotle was able to determine that the path of a projectile is parabolic.

• The first statement is correct and the second statement is incorrect.

• The first statement is incorrect and the second statement is correct.

• The first and second statement are correct.

• The first and second statement is incorrect.

Aristotle held that the Universe was divided into two regions, the terrestrial region and the _______ region.
