Sentence examples for free fall experiments from inspiring English sources

Experiments carried out differ mainly in the applied measurement technique and can be classified into groups: (1) torsion balance experiments and (2) Galilean (free fall) experiments.

In 2001 a free fall experiment with high sensitive SQUID (Superconductive QUantum Interference Device) sensors tested the WEP with an accuracy of 10−7 (Nietzsche, 2001).

Hence, a set of free-fall experiments with non-combusting model firebrands were run in the absence of cross-wind.

"It's like Galileo's free-fall experiment," Dr. Murphy said.

GiZero is a capsule designed to perform experiments in free fall from ballooning at stratospheric altitude.

Any frame that we might regard as inertial might be, for all we can tell by experiment, in free fall.

Galileo discovered many things: with his telescope, he first saw the moons of Jupiter and the mountains on the Moon; he determined the parabolic path of projectiles and calculated the law of free fall on the basis of experiment.

Free-fall impact experiments show that GGT has a better stability than perfect tube when used as an energy absorber to protect the graphite in HTR from slender control rod impact.

And in those cases in which the system is effectively shielded from decoherence (say, if the experiment is performed in free fall), if the collapse mechanism is indeed triggered by gravitational effects, then no collapse should be expected either.

This instrument was specifically developed for biological experiments and could generate a free fall for a period of about 800 ms with an intermediate "bounce" of ~20 g for around 50 ms.

In 1907, beginning with a simple thought experiment involving an observer in free fall, he embarked on what would be an eight-year search for a relativistic theory of gravity.
