Answer: The correct answer is:

Galileo used instruments and experiments to show him what nature was doing, instead of relying on pure logic

Explanation:

Galileo can be considered as one of the precursors of experimentation and the scientific method. A method that doesn't rely on "common sense" and rationalization and logic, but instead is fuelled by a disposition of skepticism and rather makes claims about reality based on experimentation and empirical data shows.

Galileo differed from his predecessors because he actually used and developed instruments and method to reliable measure and observe what nature was doing, instead of relying on pure logic.

Helen [10]
We have: a = v/t
Here, t = 2 s  [ Given ]
a = 9.8 m/s²  [constant value for earth system ]

Substitute their values into the expression:
9.8 = v/2
v = 9.8 × 2
v = 19.6 m/s

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!

Ana wonders how light can affect a mystery material. The table below shows what happens when different types of light hit the my
vivado [14]

The light can definitely change the mystery material. This can occur through a change in temperature or color (option C).

A material is affected by light mainly if the material absorbs the light. Based on the chart, we know this mystery material can absorb two types of light:

  • Red light.
  • Yellow light.

Moreover, this phenomenon can lead to two main changes:

  • Change in temperature: Light affects materials by increasing their temperature of these. A common example is the way the temperature of an object increases if it is exposed to sunlight.
  • Change in color: Some materials react to light by changing their color.

Based on this, the material can change its color or temperature.

Note: This question is incomplete; here is the missing part:

A. Yes, but the mystery material can change in only one way, such as by getting warm, because all the light that a material absorbs will affect that material in the same way.

B. No. The mystery material can’t change because the light is not a physical thing. Light cannot change physical things like the mystery material.

C. Yes and the mystery material can change in one or two different ways, such as by getting warm and/or changing color, because different types of light can cause different changes to a material when they are absorbed.

D. There is no way to know whether the mystery material will change or not.
