Contact [7]3 years ago

Before Copernicus most people were thinking that the Earth is at center of universe. In 1609 Galileo observed sky through his home made telescope.
He found 4 moons orbiting Jupiter..It was a proof that bodies are orbiting other planets and not earth alone. <span>He found the crescent shape of Venus through his telescope and this could happen only if Sun is at center.</span>

if you were an astronaut in the middle of the near side of the moon during a full moon how would the ground around you look how
scoundrel [369]
In a full moon the earth is between the sun and moon, but not blocking the sun from the moon (that's a lunar eclipse and only happens sometimes).  This means the ground all around you would be illuminated (daytime on the moon). The sun would be illuminating the back of the earth from your perspective and so the earth would appear dark, like a new moon does to us on earth.

Decide whether each statement describes mass or weight.
vova2212 [387]

<u>Mass</u>

  • Mass is measured in kilograms.
  • Mass does not change when gravity changes.
  • Mass is the amount of matter in something.

<u>Weight</u>

  • Before I answer, we have to know weight formula. Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity.
  • Therefore, weight is measured in Newtons.
  • Weight changes when gravity changes. This is because weight is dependent on acceleration due to gravity.
  • Weight is a gravitational force.

Hope you could understand.

If you have any query, feel free to ask.

A ball is thrown horizontally from a 16 m -high building with a speed of 2.0 m/s .
BigorU [14]

Answer:

3.61 m

Explanation:

First, find how long it takes to land.

Given (in the y direction):

Δy = 16 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

(16 m) = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 1.81 s

Given (in the x direction):

v₀ = 2.0 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 1.81 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (2.0 m/s) (1.81 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (1.81 s)²

Δx = 3.61 m
