Question
Nesley NAME Learning Goals: Although disbelieved by many clergy, Galileo was certainly correct about the heliocent solar system, and he wanted his theory of tides to support his ideas. Did it? 1. Table 1 contains tide data adapted from the site http://tidesonline.nos.noaa.govi, a site sponsored by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), as well as transit data adapted from the United States Naval Observatory http://aa.usno.navy.mil. The times listed for the high tides are approximate and are Universal Time, not local time.

Galileo, aware that liquids slosh around in tanks hauled by draft animals and on ships, was convinced that tides were caused by the water sloshing around on the Earth, primarily as a result of the fact that if the Earth is rotating, one side will be going in one direction while, at a longitude 180 degrees away, the Earth is going in the opposite direction. To Galileo this meant acceleration and, therefore, sloshing, and in his mind the tides were scientific evidence that the Earth was rotating rather than the celestial sphere. Galileo rejected the notion that the Moon had anything to do with tides. If Galileo was right, then the tides should be periodic in 24 hours because the Earth turns once every 24 hours. That is what we are about to test in more detail.
