D
Explanation:
"The Large Hadron collider (LHC) is a <em>huge piece of equipment designed and built in order to make new scientific discoveries.</em>"
Answer:
They don’t ‘represent’ anything, they are properties of the wave.
Depending on the type of wave, we experience them as various phenomena. For example, with a sound wave we experience frequency (or wavelength, which is just another way to describe the same property) as the pitch of the sound. We experience amplitude as the loudness of the sound, although due to the characteristics of the ear, frequency also effects perceived loudness.
If the wave is a light wave, we experience the frequency (wavelength) as the colour of the light, and the amplitude as the brightness of the light.
For many waves, we don’t perceive them at all (e.g. radio waves).
For ocean waves, frequency is the time for each peak or trough to reach us, and amplitude is how tall the wave is.

Answer: </h2><h2>
- Jupiter has orbiting moons.</h2><h2>
- The Sun has sunspots and rotates on its axis.</h2><h2>
- The Moon has mountains, valleys, and craters.</h2><h2>
- Venus goes through a full set of phases.</h2>
Explanation:
In 1609 Galileo built a telescope, with which he observed mountains and craters on the Moon, discovered Jupiter’s major satellites and the next year he published these discoveries in his book <em>The Sidereal Messenger</em>.
In addition, Galileo observed that Venus presented phases (such as those of the moon) together with a variation in size; observations that are only compatible with the fact that Venus rotates around the Sun and not around Earth. This is because <u>Venus presented its smaller size when it was in full phase and the largest size when it was in the new one, when it is between the Sun and the Earth. </u>

On the other hand, <u>although Galileo was not the first to observe sunspots</u>, he gave the correct explanation of their existence, which supported the idea that planets revolve around the Sun.
These observations and discoveries were presented by Galileo to the Catholic Church (which supported the geocentric theory at that time) as a proof that completely refuted Ptolemy's geocentric system and affirmed Copernicus' heliocentric theory.
