Explanation:

- Galileo Galilei (Option 3): Known for his experiments with gravity, Galileo conducted experiments by dropping objects of different masses from heights, such as the Leaning Tower of Pisa, to study their rates of fall. This laid the groundwork for understanding gravity.

- Isaac Newton (Option 1): Later formulated the laws of universal gravitation, quantitatively explaining gravitational forces between masses.

- Henry Cavendish (Option 2): Measured the force of gravitational attraction between masses in a laboratory, confirming Newton's theory.

- Marconi (Option 4): Not relevant to gravity; known for his work in radio communication and telegraphy.
