    Do you ever wonder who comes up with the material we learn at school, such as physics? I know, I do! I’m pretty sure you do to. Not only has this changed the way we learn at school but as well as changing out history of math and physics. Galileo, made experiments to which we could advance from them later on in the future. Well we can thank Galileo, for coming up with the solution to our problems. However, Galileo was basically trying to find the speed of two different objects falling at the same…
