Answer:
Since free falling is essentially equivalent to a completely vertical ramp, he assumed that a ball rolling down a ramp would speed up in the exact same way as a falling ball would. Using a water clock, Galileo measured the time it took for the ball to roll a known distance down the inclined plane.
