The complete question is

What modifications did kepler make to copernicus’s model? check all that apply. planetary orbits are elliptical. planets closer to the sun move faster. planets spin in an epicycle while orbiting earth. venus has phases due to its orbiting of the sun. earth’s rotation causes the rising and setting of the sun.

Answer:

Planetary orbits are elliptical.

Planets closer to the Sun move faster.

Explanation:

The first option is based on the first law that states that the planets orbit the sun in ellipses, with the sun at one focus of the ellipse.

The second option is based on the third law that states that the square of the time of revolution about the sun is directly proportional to the cube of the mean radius of orbit of the planet.

Answer:

Drawing the triangle:

H / x = tan 52.2 = 1.29

H / (4.6 - x) = tan 28.8 = .550

H = 1.29 x

H = .55 * 4.6 - .55 x

1.84 x = 2.53 combining equations

x = 1.38

4.6 - 1.38 = 3.22

Total base of triangle = 1.38 + 3.22 = 4.6

H / x = tan 52,2 = 1.29

H = 1.29 * 1.38 = 1.78 height of triangle

Check:

1.78 / 3.22 = tan 28.9

This agrees with the given value of 28.8

Which is present when iodine changes from brown to blue or purple?

vladimir1956 [14]

If iodine is added to a starch solution, they react with each other and the iodine darkens to an almost pitch black.

however, if iodine is added to a solution containing no starch, it will show up only as an extremely pale brown. almost colorless and hardly visible.

when following the changes in some inorganic oxidation reduction reactions, iodine may be used as an indicator to follow the changes of iodide ion and iodine element. soluble starch solution is added. only iodine element in the presence of iodide ion will give the characteristic blue black color. neither iodine element alone nor iodide ions alone will give the color result.

hope this answer really helps your question :)

In what ways does a stream transport its load, and which part of the load moves most slowly? Select all that apply.

vodka [1.7K]

Answer: Option (B)

Explanation: A stream transports its materials in different ways-

Dissolved load- Here, the materials gets dissolved when mixed with water and flows along with the stream.
Suspended load- Here, the materials are not fully dissolved in the water but they can be carried from one place to another in suspension mode, by the river.
Bed load- Bed load are transported in three different ways such as-

Sliding- here, the materials slides down along a curved surface under the water and carried away.
Rolling- here, the materials are solid and due to force exerted by water, it can roll and move to distant places.

Saltation- here, the materials are carried away in a series of jumps.

Thus, the most appropriate answer is option (B) i.e bedload.

molecular cloud <interstellar cloud <1 Msun protostar <1 Msun star <intercloud gas

Explanation:

Molecular cloud- They are a variety of interstellar cloud in which molecular hydrogen can sustain themselves. They have a very low temperature ranging from -440 to -370 degrees Fahrenheit or between 10 to 50 Kelvin. Owing to their extremely low temperature, they appear mostly dark when viewed through telescopes.

Interstellar cloud- They are a congregation of a large number of interstellar gases, dust and plasma in any galaxy or universe. They have varying temperature depending on their proximity to a star. E.g. Neutral hydrogen atom clouds have a temperature of around just 100 Kelvin while those in the near vicinity of a star have temperatures as high as 10,000 Kelvin.

1 Msun star- These stars have temperature anywhere between 5300 and 6000 Kelvin. The main source of such high surface temperature is nuclear fusion process where elemental hydrogen molecules are fused to form helium molecules.

1 Msun protostar- protostar is rather a young star which is still in formation phase (i.e. gathering mass from the parent molecular cloud). They have temperature anywhere between 2000-3000 kelvin and are accompanied by dust usually.

Intercloud gas- These are the remainder gases that are spread throughout the interstellar space. This Intercloud gas is divided into warm intercloud medium and extremely hot coronal gas with temperatures comparing to Sun’s corona. Warm intercloud forms the dominant part of intercloud gas with a temperature around 8000 Kelvin.
