Scorpion4ik [409]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

1. Phases of Venus: Galileo was the first astronomer to use a telescope to observe the celestial objects. Through a telescope he observed that Venus shows the phases just like the Moon. This proved the Heliocentric theory correct against the then prevalent Geocentric theory.

2. Law of Falling bodies: The acceleration due to gravity is independent of weight of the objects that means two bodies of different mass will hit the ground at the same time if dropped from the same height.

3. The uneven surface of the Moon: He observed that the surface of the Moon is uneven and rough.

4. Discovery of the 4 Moons of Jupiter

Kyle has the mass of 54 kg and is jogging at a velocity of m/s. What is Kyle’s kinetic energy
inysia [295]

m = mass = 54 kg

v = velocity = 3 m/s

KE =  (1/2)*m*v^2

KE =  (1/2) * 54 * (3)^2

KE = 243 J

Hope this helps!
