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.

A skateboarder is skating back and forth on the halfpipe as seen below. As he skates his energy transforms from potential energy
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Friction and air resistance cause some of his kinetic energy to be “lost”. This makes him slow down.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy states that in absence of frictional forces, the mechanical energy of an object (given by the sum of its kinetic and potential energy) is conserved. In such a situation, the skateboarder would never stop his motion, because potential energy is continuously converted into kinetic energy and vice-versa, but the total energy remains the same so he would never stop.

In a real world, however, this is not true. In fact, in a real world some frictional force are present, in particular:

- friction: this force is due to the contact between the skateboard and the surface of the halfpipe, and its direction is always opposite to the motion of the skateboarder

- Air resistance: this force is due to the resistance opposed by the molecules of air that the skateboarder meets during his motion, and its direction is also opposite to the motion of the skateboarder

This two forces are said to be non-conservative forces, which means that they cause some of the mechanical energy of the skateboarder to be "lost", in the sense that it is dissipated as heat and it is no longer available for the skateboarder.

Therefore, the correct option is

Friction and air resistance cause some of his kinetic energy to be “lost”. This makes him slow down.
