To summarize, an object moving in uniform circular motion is moving around the perimeter of the circle with a constant speed<span>. While the </span>speed<span> of the object is</span>constant<span>, its </span>velocity<span> is </span>changing<span>. </span>Velocity<span>, being a vector, has a </span>constant<span>magnitude </span>but<span> a </span>changing<span> direction.</span>
In the given question, one important information for getting to the actual solution is not given and that is the atmospheric pressure. To find the approximate absolute pressure, it is needed to add the value of atmospheric pressure with the gage pressure.
Atmospheric pressure = 100 kPa
Then
Absolute pressure = 156 + 100 kPa
= 256 KPa.

Answer: a.The mirrors and eyepiece of a large telescope are spring-loaded to allow them to return quickly to a known position. </h2>
Explanation:
Adaptive optics is a method used in several astronomical observatories to counteract in real time the effects of the Earth's atmosphere on the formation of astronomical images.
This is done through the insertion into the optical path of the telescope of sophisticated deformable mirrors supported by a set of computationally controlled actuators. Thus obtaining clear images despite the effects of atmospheric turbulence that cause the unwanted distortion.
It should be noted that with this technique it is also necessary to have a moderately bright reference star that is very close to the object to be observed and studied. However, it is not always possible to find such stars, so a powerful laser beam is used to point towards the Earth's upper atmosphere and create artificial stars.
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
