How did the old view of the solar system look like

Physics
1 answer:
zhuklara [117]3 years ago
3 0
The old view of the solar system was geocentric, which means that people believed that the Earth is the center of the universe. However, with the discoveries of Galileo, Newton, and Copernicus, evidence was brought forth that the solar system is actually heliocentric, which means that the sun is the center of the universe.

A total of 875 J of work was done when a force of 175 N was exerted on a box to move it. How far was the box moved
Vladimir [108]
Work = Force times Distance
W = Fd

Given W = 750J, F = 125N;

750 = 125d

Solving for d:
d = 750/125
d = 6

The box moved a distance of 6 meters.

steposvetlana [31]
Someone can make an introduction about getting a flu shot because, mostly everyone in the world have gotten or just got a flu shot. One example of a pro is that, a flu shot can prevent the flu, and other deadly sicknesses. On example of a con is that, some flu shots can carry side effects which is something that should be tested before given to adults and especially kids!!! Hope this helps!!! Good luck

A 1000 kg satellite and a 2000 kg satellite follow exactly the same orbit around the earth. What is the ratio F1/F2 of the gravi
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

the <em>ratio F1/F2 = 1/2</em>

the <em>ratio a1/a2 = 1</em>

Explanation:

The force that both satellites experience is:

F1 = G M_e m1 / r²       and

F2 = G M_e m2 / r²

where

  • m1 is the mass of satellite 1
  • m2 is the mass of satellite 2
  • r is the orbital radius
  • M_e is the mass of Earth

Therefore,

F1/F2 = [G M_e m1 / r²] / [G M_e m2 / r²]

F1/F2 = [G M_e m1 / r²] × [r² / G M_e m2]

F1/F2 = m1/m2

F1/F2 = 1000/2000

<em>F1/F2 = 1/2</em>

The other force that the two satellites experience is the centripetal force. Therefore,

F1c = m1 v² / r    and

F2c = m2 v² / r

where

  • m1 is the mass of satellite 1
  • m2 is the mass of satellite 2
  • v is the orbital velocity
  • r is the orbital velocity

Thus,

a1 = v² / r ⇒ v² = r a1    and

a2 = v² / r ⇒ v² = r a2

Therefore,

F1c = m1 a1 r / r = m1 a1

F2c = m2 a2 r / r = m2 a2

In order for the satellites to stay in orbit, the gravitational force must equal the centripetal force. Thus,

F1 = F1c

G M_e m1 / r² = m1 a1

a1 = G M_e / r²

also

a2 = G M_e / r²

Thus,

a1/a2 = [G M_e / r²] / [G M_e / r²]

<em>a1/a2 = 1</em>

Which particle is most likely to interact with your hand? Select one: a. Alpha particle b. Beta particle c. Gamma particle d. Ne
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The correct option is a

Explanation:

The alpha particle has the lowest penetrating power of the trio of alpha, beta and gamma particles and can be stopped by a sheet of paper and hence cannot penetrate a human skin. Beta particle has a higher penetrating power than alpha particle (some of it penetrates the human skin and some do not) while the gamma particle has the highest penetrating power (with all of it penetrating the human skin).

From the above description, it can be deduced that the alpha particle will stay and interact with the hand (because of its low penetrating power) as the remaining particles move through the skin.
