How did Aristotle's inability to detect parallax lead him to propose a geocentric model of the Solar System.

Physics

He reasoned that since parallax could not be observed for celestial objects near the sun, then the earth was stationary. This erroneous assumption was because at the time he had no way of knowing that celestial objects were so far away that their parallax angles were too small to detect.

                 All the processes that form mountain ranges are known as                
stepan [7]
All Mountains are built through a general process called "deformation" of the crust of the Earth. Deformation is a fancy word which could also mean "folding". An example of this kind of folding comes from the process described below. 

<span>When two sections of the Earth's lithosphere collide, rather than being subducted, where one slab of lithosphere is forced down to deeper regions of the Earth, the slabs pile into each other, causing one or both slabs can fold up like an accordion. This process elevates the crust, folds and deforms it heavily, and produces a mountain range. Mountain building and mantle subduction usually go together. </span>

Answer:

Object 3 has greatest acceleration.

Explanation:

Objects               Mass                                Force

1                            10 kg                               4 N              

2                           100 grams                       20 N

3                            10 grams                         4 N

4                             1 kg                                 20 N

Acceleration of object 1,

a_1=\dfrac{F_1}{m_1}\\\\a_1=\dfrac{4}{10}\\\\a_1=0.4\ m/s^2

Acceleration of object 2,

a_2=\dfrac{F_2}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{20}{0.1}\\\\a_2=200\ m/s^2

Acceleration of object 3,

a_3=\dfrac{F_3}{m_3}\\\\a_3=\dfrac{4}{0.01}\\\\a_3=400\ m/s^2

Acceleration of object 4,

a_4=\dfrac{F_4}{m_4}\\\\a_4=\dfrac{20}{1}\\\\a_3=20\ m/s^2

It is clear that the acceleration of object 3 is 400\ m/s^2 and it is greatest of all. So, the correct option is (3).
