STEP 7: LEAD Initial temperature of metal = 100
✓°C
Initial temperature of water = 22.6
✓ °C
Final temperature of both = 23.3
°C

Subtract to find the temperature
changes for the water and the metal.
AT (water) = 0.7 ✓ °C

AT (metal) = 76.7 ✓ °C

The famous scientist galileo galilei did several experiments with sloping planes, which he rolled metal balls down so that he could study motion. by changing the slope, he could study how the speed at which the ball rolled was affected. what was the independent variable in galileo's experiment? a. the speed of the ball b. the slope of the plane c. whether the ball moved d. what the ball was made of
