Device for checking the principle of the independence of the simultaneous actions
Dating24 April 1947
MakerAntonio Cherubini
It is a kinematics device for checking the principle of the independence of the simultaneous actions. In the specific case it can be experimentally observed that the falling motion of a body is the same whether the object starts from rest or it has a non-zero horizontal speed at the beginning. This proves that the fall in the vertical direction always occurs with the same law.
