why galileo galilei is the father of scientific method?

Answer 1

Because he used experiments to test his ideas.

Answer 2

He is called the father of scientific method because he founded the "experiment." We recognize an experiment by three requirements: reproducability, quantification and analysis. The third requirement, analysis, requests, that experimental results must refer to phenomena which are simple enough to be elements for theoretical descriptions. The success of Galileo Galilei was the analysis of motion into two elements: motion in the vacuum plus disturbance of this motion by atmospheric resistence. Only this analysis led to simple enough laws for the motion under the influence of gravity. It is what we may call "atomistic thinking", which is the result of analysis. This applies not only to the elements of matter, but to all fields of science.

Answer 3

He was throwing things from the Tower of Pizza and proved that way one of his ideas about gravity. That is the basis of modern scientific methods - experiment decides the winner. The state of science before him is best illustrated by absurd Zeno's paradoxes.

Answer 4

coz he tried to measure something no matter some methods are wrong
for example he found the time that i can say
but he had so bad system to measure the speed of light
galileo puts his assistant to a hill and he stands in another hill
he burns the candle and while the assistant see that candle is burning he is burning HIS candle and they try to calculate the speed of light
but......
they dont know that in the time that the light goes from the eyes to brain , light can travel 3 time around the world :)))))

Answer 5

because he was the one who first did the EXPERIMENTATION and he's the father of experimental/modern science.
