Reviving Galileo's Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment for modern physics
Galileo Galilei's Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment demonstrated that objects of different masses fall with the same acceleration due to the Earth's action force. However, when sliding on a smooth table, the accelerations of objects with different masses differ due to the interaction forces. In modern mechanics, the concept of force has evolved to view it as an action force field that radiates outward from its source, rather than an interaction force between objects. This shift in understanding has led to a deeper comprehension of the dynamics of objects and the nature of force fields.
