publish a book in which he explained his heliocentric theory.

Explanation:

The heliocentric theory is the one according which the Sun is in the center of our Solar Sistem and the planets go around it.  

Previously to this theory (before Copernicus) the prevalent theory was geocentrism accordind which it was the earth who stood in the center and all the other celestial bodies went around it.

A force in the +x -direction with magnitude F(x)=18.0N−(0.530N/m)x is applied to a 7.90 kg box that is sitting on the horizontal
dsp73

Answer:

v\approx 8.570\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The equation of equlibrium for the box is:

\Sigma F_{x} = 18\,N-(0.530\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot x = (7.90\,kg)\cdot a

The formula for the acceleration, given in \frac{m}{s^{2}}, is:

a = \frac{18\,N-(0.530\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot x}{7.90\,kg}

Velocity can be derived from the following definition of acceleration:

a = v\cdot \frac{dv}{dx}

v\, dv = a\, dx

\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} = \int\limits^{17\,m}_{0\,m} {\frac{18\,N-(0.530\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot x}{7.90\,kg} } \, dx

\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} =\frac{18\,N}{7.90\,kg}  \int\limits^{17\,m}_{0\,m}\, dx  - \frac{0.530\,\frac{N}{m} }{7.90\,kg} \int\limits^{17\,m}_{0\,m} {x} \, dx

\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} = (2.278\,\frac{m}{s^{2}})\cdot x |_{0\,m}^{27\,m}-(0.034\,\frac{1}{s^{2}})\cdot x^{2}|_{0\,m}^{27\,m}

v =\sqrt{2\cdot[(2.278\,\frac{m}{s^{2}})\cdot x |_{0\,m}^{27\,m}-(0.034\,\frac{1}{s^{2}})\cdot x^{2}|_{0\,m}^{27\,m}]  }

The speed after the box has travelled 17 meters is:

v\approx 8.570\,\frac{m}{s}

The amount of energy which is transported past a given area of the medium per unit of time is known as the ________ of the sound
Aliun [14]
The term that describes the amount of energy transported past a given area of the medium per unit time would be "intensity." In addition, the formula for computing intensity would be:

Intensity = Energy / (Time * Area)

It can be implied that the wave would be more intense when its energy transfer rate gets increased and vibration amplitudes also increases.

What occurs when a swimmer pushes through water to swim
Triss [41]
When we swim we apply force and push the water backward with the help of our hands. In response, The water pushes us forward with an equal force. Thus, in order to move forward and swim, the swimmer lushes the water backward. Newton's 3rd law of motion

Which property of light remains unchanged when it enters a different medium?
RideAnS [48]
B. Frequency remains unchanged because the energy in a photon is E=hf. So if the frequency changes so does the energy and that doesn't happen to EM waves entering a medium by the conservation of energy
