Answer: Formation of Iceberg

Explanation: A glacier is a very large mass of ice formed overtime by the compression of snowfall. Glacier are formed in very high altitudes and very cold parts of the Earth.

When a glaciar is exposed to ocean currents: it can break to form icebergs which are large mass of floating ice. This is breaking of glaciers is dependent on the temperature of the ocean tide flowing towards it.

Process of Science: Explaining the Motions of Planets. To ancient astronomers, the motions of the Sun, the Moon, and the stars s
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

<u>Geocentric Model</u>: - this model is Earth Centered

-Retrograde motion is explained by epicycles

<u>Heliocentric Model</u>: - This model is Sun Centered

-Retrograde motion is explained by the orbital speeds of planets

<u>Both models</u>:- Epicycles and deferents help explain planetary motion

-Planets move in circular orbits and with uniform motion

-The brightness of a planet increases when the planet is closest to Earth

Explanation:

Retrograde motion is an apparent change in the movement of the planet through the sky. Ptolemy's model of the solar systems was geocentric, where the Sun, Moon, planets and start all orbit the Earth in perfectly circular orbits. However this perfectly circular orbits around the Earth did not explain the occasional retrograde motion of the planets. In the Copernicus' heliocentric model, retrograde motion of planets is naturally explained. The explanation for retrograde motion in a heliocentric model is that retrograde occurs roughly when a faster moving planet catches up to and passes a slower moving planet.

Answer:

A sensitive infra-red telescope

Explanation:

Infrared light is highly advantageous for astronomers as it helps in discovering and studying the astronomical objects that are observed in the night sky.

This infrared light is commonly used in the telescopes to study the distant stars, and by analyzing them, they are classified as different types like L or M types. These telescopes, by using the infrared light, it is able to detect the presence of stars and other astronomical bodies, and this type of telescopes helps in determining the temperature of the distant objects such as the stars, planets, and other objects.
