What were four of Galileo’s discoveries that were important to astronomy?
Scorpion4ik [409]

Explanation:

1. Phases of Venus: Galileo was the first astronomer to use a telescope to observe the celestial objects. Through a telescope he observed that Venus shows the phases just like the Moon. This proved the Heliocentric theory correct against the then prevalent Geocentric theory.

2. Law of Falling bodies: The acceleration due to gravity is independent of weight of the objects that means two bodies of different mass will hit the ground at the same time if dropped from the same height.

3. The uneven surface of the Moon: He observed that the surface of the Moon is uneven and rough.

4. Discovery of the 4 Moons of Jupiter

Capacitors, C1 = 1.0 F and C2 = 1.0 F, are connected in parallel to a 6.0 volt battery (ΔV = 6.0V). If the battery is disconnect
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

66.2 sec

Explanation:

C₁ = 1.0 F

C₂ = 1.0 F

ΔV = Potential difference across the capacitor = 6.0 V

C = parallel combination of capacitors

Parallel combination of capacitors is given as

C = C₁ + C₂

C = 1.0 + 1.0

C = 2.0 F

R = resistance = 33 Ω

Time constant is given as

T = RC

T = 33 x 2

T = 66 sec

V₀ = initial potential difference across the combination = 6.0 Volts

V = final potential difference = 2.2 volts

Using the equation

V = V_{o} e^{\frac{-t}{T}}

2.2 = 6 e^{\frac{-t}{66}}

t = 66.2 sec

A light-year is the distance light travels in one year (at speed = 2.998 × 108 m/s). (a) how many meters are there in 11.0 light
larisa [96]
<span>The answers are as follows:

(a) how many meters are there in 11.0 light-years?

11.0 light years ( 365 days / 1 year ) ( 24 h / 1 day ) ( 60 min / 1 h ) ( 60 s / 1 min ) ( 2.998x10^8 m/s ) = 1.04x10^17 m

(b) an astronomical unit (au) is the average distance from the sun to earth, 1.50 × 108 km. how many au are there in 11.0 light-years?

1.04x10^17 m ( 1 au / </span>1.50 × 10^8 km <span>) ( 1 km / 1000 m) = 693329.472 au

(c) what is the speed of light in au/h? au/h

</span>2.998 × 10^8 m/s ( 1 au / 1.50 × 10^8 km ) ( 1 km / 1000 m) ( 3600 s / 1 h ) = 7.1952 au/h
