Answer:

Explanation:

Many people did not believed in the discoveries made by Galileo especially the concept of heliocentrism because of a conflict between Catholic church and Galileo.

There were many controversies between the idea of Heliocentrism that Catholic churches have threatened  Galileo to abolish it.

There was many other astronomers as well who did not believed in his theory because of absence of stellar parallax and considered this theory as foolish and absurd.

Dan Brown in his novels has very well explained the difference in ideas of Galileo and Catholic church.

Without using a micrometer screw gauge, how do I find the average diameter of a long piece of thin wire using a metre rule and a
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Wind the long piece of thin wire around the uniform glass rod multiple times, find the length of the total diameters using the metre ruler, and divide by the number of times you wound it around the rod.

Explanation:

Since the diameter of one long piece of thin wire is too thin to be measured by a metre ruler, you can wind it multiple times and push it side by side to get a length you can measure.

For example, if you wound it around 20 times and the total length of 20 diameters of the wire side-by-side is 2.0 cm, one winding, which is the diameter would be 2.0cm ÷ 20 = 0.10cm or 1mm.

Planet RMM-1 has a mass of 28,500 kg and the star it revolves around has
SOVA2 [1]

Gravitational force = G · (mass₁) · (mass₂) / (distance)

(distance²) = G · (mass₁) · (mass₂) / (Gravitational force)

G = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ n-m² / kg²  (the "gravitational constant")

Distance²  = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ n-m² / kg²) (28,500 kg) (2.2 x 10⁸ kg) / (39 N)

Distance² = (6.67 · 28,500 · 2.2 x 10⁻³ N-m²) / (39N)

Distance²  =  (418.209 N-m²) / (39N)

Distance²  =  10.72 m²

<em>Distance = 3.275 meters</em>

An absurd scenario, but that's by golly what the math says with the numbers provided.  I guess it's a teeny tiny planet orbiting 3.275 meters outside a teeny tiny black hole.
