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.

Answer:

0.2 J

Explanation:

The pendulum forms a right triangle, with hypotenuse of 50 cm and base of 30 cm.  The height of this triangle can be found with Pythagorean theorem:

c² = a² + b²

(50 cm)² = a² + (30 cm)²

a = 40 cm

The height of the triangle is 40 cm.  The height of the pendulum when it is at the bottom is 50 cm.  So the end of the pendulum is lifted by 10 cm.  Assuming the mass is concentrated at the end of the pendulum, the potential energy is:

PE = mgh

PE = (0.200 kg) (9.8 N/kg) (0.10 m)

PE = 0.196 J

Rounding to one significant figure, the potential energy is 0.2 J.
