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

Physics

sasho [114]3 years ago

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.

If you increase the mass of an object and want to move an object a specific distance, what do you need to do
Alexxandr [17]

If you increase the mass of an object and want to move an object a specific distance, then you need to do extra work than the earlier

<h3>What is work done?</h3>

The total amount of energy transferred when a force is applied to move an object through some distance

Work Done = Force * Displacement

For example, let us suppose a force of 10 N is used to displace an object by a displacement of 5 m then the work done on the object can be calculated by the above-mentioned formula

work done = 10 N ×5 m

                 =50 N m

Thus, when an object's mass is increased and it is desired to move it a certain distance, more work must be done than previously.

According to Newton’s first law of motion, what will an object in motion do when no external force acts on it?
KonstantinChe [14]

By definition, we have to:

Newton's first law states that any object will remain in a state of rest or with a uniform rectilinear motion unless an external force acts on it.

Therefore, according to the first law of Newton, if the object is already in motion and has no force acting on it then, it will remain with a uniform rectilinear motion.

Answer:

The object will remain with a uniform rectilinear movement when the external force does not act on it.
