Animated simulation re-enacts Galileo's experiment of dropping objects off the Leaning Tower of Pisa.

Do heavier and lighter objects fall at the same rate? Galileo hypothesized that objects fall at the same rate regardless of their mass. Complete this module to find out if Galileo was right by comparing position-time and velocity-time...

This site from NASA compares free falling motion to falling with air resistance. Discusses Galileo's experiment. Explains why we believe all objects free fall with the same acceleration.
