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.

What affect, if any, does increasing the speed of the plunger have on the wavelength of the waves

As the speed of the plunger increases, the wavelength of the waves decreases. The greater the frequency, the smaller the wavelength. The smaller the frequency, the greater the wavelength. When we increase the speed of the plunger, the frequency of the waves also increases, and just like with the size of the ball, it’s the speed of the plunger and the frequency of the waves are directly related.

The spring constant will be k= 5.5N/m for a 200g air track glider attached to a spring.

<h3>What is spring constant?</h3>

The spring constant, k, is a measure of the stiffness of the spring. It is different for different springs and materials.

Calculation for What is the spring constant

First step is to calculate the time period

T = 12 second/10
