ARISTOTLE AND GALILEO’S CONCEPT OF MOTION.pptx

Aristotle and Galileo had differing conceptions of motion. Aristotle believed that objects require a continuous force to maintain motion, while Galileo recognized that objects in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an external force. The document compares and contrasts their views on vertical motion, horizontal motion, and projectile motion, explaining key concepts like free fall, velocity, acceleration, and speed. It provides an example of how a cannonball dropped from a cliff will reach the sea at the same time as one fired horizontally due to principles of projectile motion.

ARISTOTLE AND GALILEO’S CONCEPT OF MOTION
OBJECTIVE: AT THE END OF THE LESSON, THE LEARNERS WILL BE ABLE TO; compare and contrast the Aristotelian and Galilean conceptions of vertical motion, horizontal motion, and projectile motion
Velocity is the rate of change of position with respect to time Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity Speed is the distance traveled per unit of time
Free Fall is any motion of a body where gravity is the only force acting upon it
Projectile Motion Cannonball
A cannonball which drops from a cliff will reach the sea at exactly the same time as a cannonball which is fired with horizontal velocity.
