Explanation:

Geocentric model said that the Earth is at the center of the universe and everything revolves around it. It was considered to be stationary. Galileo proved this model incorrect with the help of his astronomical observations. Some of the key observation that he used to support the heliocentric model were:

1. He proposed the theory that the tides on the Earth occur because of its motion.

2. He observed the phases of the Venus which meant that the Venus revolved around the Sun and not the Earth.

3. He observed other planets and thus noted that they also move around the Sun and not Earth.

4. He discovered the Moons of other planets.

What is the pressure exerted by a column of fresh water 10m high<br>(p=1000kg/m3 and g=10m/s)​
alexira [117]
  • Height (h) = 10 m
  • Density (ρ) = 1000 Kg/m^3
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s^2
  • We know, pressure in a fluid = hρg
  • Therefore, the pressure exerted by a column of fresh water
  • = hρg
  • = (10 × 1000 × 10) Pa
  • = 100000 Pa

<u>Answer</u><u>:</u>

<u>1000</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>Pa</u>
