Explain why your senses would lead you to believe that the Earth is center of the universe

Physics
1 answer:
ASHA 777 [7]3 years ago
5 0

<u>Answer:</u>

This is due to the apparent movement of the celestial bodies, seen from an observer centered on the Earth. If we did not have knowledge of the advances of science and the latest discoveries, we would think that the Earth is the center of the universe.

For example, for an observer on Earth as a reference system, the Sun moves every day from east to west, as do the planets and all the stars that we observe at night, which leads the observer to believe that those in motion are these bodies outside in the sky while the earth is still and fixed in the universe.

Keep in mind that this theory of geocentrism was widely accepted for a long time in antiquity, until the astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus proposed a completely different and opposite idea, heliocentrism (universe centered on the Sun).

However, at present it is known and accepted that the universe has no center, that the Earth revolves around the Sun and that in reality all the bodies of the universe are in movement.

Which best explains how the diffraction pattern observed in young’s experiment supports the wave theory of light?.
KIM [24]

Answer: the airy pattern can only arise from wave propagation

Explanation:if particles went in straight lines through a slit, they would progate linearly and not interfere. The airy pattern arises from diffraction as waves interfere, producing peaks (constructive interference where peaks of waves from each slit coincide) and troughs (destructive interference where peaks and troughs of waves from each slit cancel out). If intensity rather than field is measured nodes occur where 0 values line up instead of troughs

The earth has a mass ME = 5.98 · 1024 kg and the moon has a mass MM = 7.36 · 1022 kg. The distance from the center of the earth
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

2 x 10^20 N

Explanation:

Me = 5.98 x 10^24 kg

Mm = 7.36 x 10^22 kg

r = 3.82 x 10^5 km = 3.82 x 10^8 m

The gravitational force between earth and moon is

F = G Me x Mm / r^2

F = (6.67 x 10^-11 x  5.98 x 10^24 x 7.36 x 10^22) / (3.82 x 10^8 x 3.82 x 10^8)

F = 2 x 10^20 N
