<h2>Answer: Venus</h2>
Galileo was the first to use the telescope to observe the heavens, mainly observing the Moon, the Sun with its sunspots, Jupiter with its moons and Venus (in the early 1600s).
In the case of Venus, he observed that it presented phases (such as those of the moon) together with a variation in size; observations that are only compatible with the fact that Venus rotates around the Sun and not around Earth.
This is because Venus presented its smaller size when it is in full phase and the largest size when it is in the new one, when it is between the Sun and the Earth.
These images along with other discoveries were presented to the Catholic Church (which supported the <u>geocentric theory</u> for that time) as a proof that completely refutes Ptolemy's geocentric system and affirms <u>Copernicus' heliocentric theory.</u>
Answer:
More force
Explanation:
Pressure and force are related by the equation:
where
p is the pressure
F is the force
A is the area
We can re-arrange the equation as
In this problem, the pressure is kept the same (p' = p) while the area is increased. As we can see from the previous equation, the force applied is directly proportional to the area: therefore, a greater area means also a greater force.
You should draw a diagram of each for this question.
In a series circuit, the resistors experience the same current. In a parallel circuit, they have the same voltage drop. Therefore, the equivalent resistance is calculated differently for a series and parallel circuit.
Ohm's law: V=IR
Resistance keeps a circuit from shorting.
Answer:
Option E is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Velocity of boat = 10.8 m/s
Velocity of river = 2 m/s
Relative velocity upstream = 10.8 - 2 = 8.8 m/s
Displacement = Velocity x Time
1100 = 8.8 x t₁
Time in upstream, t₁ = 125 s
Relative velocity downstream = 10.8 + 2 = 12.8 m/s
Displacement = Velocity x Time
1100 = 12.8 x t₂
Time in downstream, t₂ = 86 s
Total time = t₁ + t₂ = 125 + 86 = 211 s
Option E is the correct answer.
