The number of pulse beats elapsed before the rubber ball hits the ground can be obtained when you carry out the experiment yourself. However, the pulse beat method of timing used by Galileo is not reliable because it varies from time to time.

Galileo was interested in studying how objects fall. His discovery was that all objects had the same acceleration irrespective of their mass. This observation was in direct contrast to Aristotle's assertion that the velocity of objects is proportional to their mass.

However, he used his pulse beats as timer during the experiment. This method is unreliable because the pulse beats of a person changes depending on the person's state of mind. A stop clock could have been a more reliable timer than pulse beats.

lianna [129]

Answer:

Their efforts would be expressed in units of Joules per second

Explanation:

The unit of their efforts can be derived from the formula of power which is given by the product of mass, acceleration and distance (the product is energy with unit joules) divided by time taken to complete the task (unit is seconds)

Therefore, the unit of their efforts would be joules per second
