(D) The gravitational force between the astronaut and the asteroid.

Reason :

All the other forces given in the options, except (D), doesn't account for the motion of the astronaut. They are the forces that act between nucleons or atoms and neither of them accounts for an objects motion.

Galileo's observational contributionsGalileo Galilei was the first scientist to perform experiments in order to test his ideas.

<h2>Answer: </h2><h2>- Jupiter has orbiting moons.</h2><h2>- The Sun has sunspots and rotates on its axis.</h2><h2>- The Moon has mountains, valleys, and craters.</h2><h2>- Venus goes through a full set of phases.</h2>

Explanation:

In 1609 Galileo built a telescope, with which he observed mountains and craters on the Moon, discovered Jupiter’s major satellites and the next year he published these discoveries in his book <em>The Sidereal Messenger</em>.

In addition, Galileo observed that Venus 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 <u>Venus presented its smaller size when it was in full phase and the largest size when it was in the new one, when it is between the Sun and the Earth.  </u>

<u />

On the other hand, <u>although Galileo was not the first to observe sunspots</u>, he gave the correct explanation of their existence, which supported the idea that planets revolve around the Sun.

These observations and discoveries were presented by Galileo to the Catholic Church (which supported the geocentric theory at that time) as a proof that completely refuted Ptolemy's geocentric system and affirmed Copernicus' heliocentric theory.

when an object moves with constant velocity, does its average velocity during any time interval differ from its instataneous vel
BigorU [14]
For a constant-velocity object, the average and instantaneous are the same.  So the answer is no.  It's like taking a running average of a string of numbers that are all the same number.  The average is always the sum of the numbers divided by how many have accumulated, which will always equate to the repeated number.
