Galileo Galilei is one of the key figures in the history of Science, being the first to apply the experimental-mathematical scientific method. He carried out experiments and careful observations in kinematics (his studies on the trajectory of projectiles are famous) and dynamics (it should be noted his careful experiments with inclined planes), establishing the first law of Dynamics (which Newton will later collect and refine in his Principles); and in Astronomy, with which he could unequivocally support the heliocentric theory.

His experiments were addressed by methodologies that allowed him to precisely find his mathematical calculations and to verify theories he was developing over time. His manuscripts were key to disseminate the applied method and extrapolate them to other scientific areas.

Therefore the correct answer is C.

g A ball thrown straight up into the air is found to be moving at 7.94 m/s after falling 2.72 m below its release point. Find th
kati45 [8]

The ball has height <em>y</em> and velocity <em>v</em> at time <em>t</em> according to

<em>y</em> = <em>v</em>₀ <em>t</em> - 1/2 <em>g</em> <em>t</em> ²

and

<em>v</em> = <em>v</em>₀ - <em>g t</em>

where <em>v</em>₀ is its initial speed and <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

The ball is falling with a velocity of 7.94 m/s when it's 2.72 m below the release point, which at time <em>t </em>such that

-2.72 m = <em>v</em>₀ <em>t</em> - 1/2 <em>g</em> <em>t</em> ²

-7.94 m/s = <em>v</em>₀ - <em>g t</em>

Solve for <em>t</em> in the second equation:

<em>t </em>= (<em>v</em>₀ + 7.94 m/s)/<em>g</em>

Substitute this into the first equation and solve for <em>v</em>₀ :

-2.72 m = <em>v</em>₀ (<em>v</em>₀ + 7.94 m/s) /<em>g</em> - 1/2 <em>g</em> ((<em>v</em>₀ + 7.94 m/s)/<em>g</em>)²

-2.72 m = <em>v</em>₀²/<em>g</em> + (7.94 m/s) <em>v</em>₀/<em>g</em> - 1/2 (<em>v</em>₀ + 7.94 m/s)²/<em>g</em>

2 (-2.72 m) <em>g</em> = 2<em>v</em>₀² + 2 (7.94 m/s) <em>v</em>₀ - (<em>v</em>₀ + 7.94 m/s)²

2 (-2.72 m) (9.80 m/s²) = 2<em>v</em>₀² + (15.9 m/s) <em>v</em>₀ - (<em>v</em>₀² + (15.9 m/s) <em>v</em>₀ + 63.0 m²/s²)

-53.3 m²/s² = <em>v</em>₀² - 63.0 m²/s²

<em>v</em>₀² = 9.73 m²/s²

<em>v</em>₀ = 3.12 m/s

Why is Earth’s North Pole a geographic north pole but a south seeking pole magnetically?
natima [27]

Answer:It is actually the South Magnetic pole

Explanation:The magnetic pole near earth's geographic north pole is actually the south magnetic pole. When it comes to magnets, opposites attract. This fact means that the north end of a magnet in a compass is attracted to the south magnetic pole, which lies close to the geographic north pole.
