Explanation :

Galileo studied Jupiter and its moons. Newton studied the gravitational force that held the planets in orbit.

Galileo constructed a telescope called Galileo's Telescopes. He also supported the Copernican theory.

Newton proposed the Universal law of gravitation. According to him, there exists a force between objects in the universe which is directly proportional to the product of masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

i.e.

F=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{r^2}

So, we can say that the two scientists proposed different theories about the solar system. This shows that they both had different interests.

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

(a) 112.5 V/m

(b) 0.01494 T

Explanation:

velocity, v = 4.5 km/s = 4500 m/s

magnetic field, B = 2.5 x 10^-2 T

mass, m = 6.64 x 10^-26 kg

charge, q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

(a) The force due to the magnetic field is balanced by the force due to the electric field

q E = B q v

E = B v = 2.5 x 10^-2 x 4500 = 112.5 V/m

(b) radius, r = 12.5 cm

r = \frac{mv}{B'q}

B' = \frac{mv}{qr}

B' = \frac{6.64\times10^{-26}\times4500}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.125}

B' = 0.01494 T

I'm in  my lab, writing an essay about the properties of Bose Einstein Condensate. I forgot the formula of producing the condens
Artyom0805 [142]
This is a big looking question for school and for 5 points.It seems to relate to superfluidity in helium III and helium IV and something called the "lambda" point. Though I can't do it justice yet and here, it looks as though i can find tis in "Heat and Thermodynamics", Mark W Zemansky ...If rho is the density of helium II, rhon the density of the normal part, and rhoz the density of the superfluid part rho=rhon+rhoz.At the lambda point, all the atoms are normal and rhon/rho = 1, whereas at absolute zero all the atoms are superfluid and rhon/rho=0.Best I can do with the info and point available ..ps, I think that both Bose and Einstein were nobel prize winners, and the word "Boson" is in honour of the, I believe, Indian physicist Bose. It is a very interesting question, and I can in no way do it justice here.

What is defined as a material resistance to the transmission of light waves flashcards?
seraphim [82]
This property is called "Opacity".

The question is worded in a difficult way. A more easily understood wording of this question would be:

"<em>What is the name of the property of a material that prevents light passing through?"</em>

X-rays cannot pass through Earth's atmosphere. Which of these is the best location to place a telescope used to observe x-rays f
Amiraneli [1.4K]
Mountains, tops of buildings, and high-flying aircraft are all part of Earth's atmosphere, no matter how high they are. On the other hand, space doesn't belong to our atmosphere, it is outside of it. Having this in mind, the best location to place a telescope used to observe x-rays from stars is in space.
