Answer:

The correct answer is option b, Earth centered

Explanation:

For the very first it was proposed by Copernicus that it is not the earth but sun which lies at the center of the system and rest all planets revolve around the sun. This sun centered model is known as heliocentric system and is also referred to as the modern view. This model was also helpful in solving two major queries instantly –  

a) Varying brightness of planets

b) Retrograde motion.

Correct answer choice:

B. Earth-centered

Explanation:

Heliocentric theory is the planetary model in which the Earth and planets rotate around the Sun at the focus of the Solar System. Historically, Heliocentric theory was objected to geocentric theory, which set the Earth at the core. This approach was explained in sections by several cosmologists over various times, particularly Aristarchus, Copernicus, Kepler, and Galileo.

Why is Jupiter so much larger than Earth? Check all that apply.
Pavlova-9 [17]

Just to give you a sense of scale, Jupiter is 2.5 times more massive than all the rest of the planets in the Solar System combined. Jupiter's diameter is 11.2 times larger than Earth. Jupiter is a very gaseous planet. The temperature of the early solar system explains why the inner planets are rocky and the outer ones are gaseous. As the gases coalesced to form a protosun, the temperature in the solar system rose.

A fishing boat drags a net for 25 seconds, doing 3500 Joules of work. How much power was the boat using?
Blizzard [7]
The equation for power is P=w/t, where w=work done in joules and t=time in seconds. 

in this case:

p=w/t
p=3500/25 
p=140

so, the boat was using 140 watts of power.

natta225 [31]

Answer:

The correct  answers to then question are

A and B

Explanation:

As highlighted, the atoms of the two isotopes are chemically identical and they have similar characteristics due to the presence of equal number of protons  and electrons (92 each). Therefore factors influenced by the chemistry of the atoms of the isotopes such as the distance between atoms and the stiffness of the inter-atomic spring is identical for both  U_{235} and  U_{238}

An analogy of the spring constant and the inter-atomic distance is to consider the atoms of the metal to be interconnected by elastic material and as such the stiffness of the elastic material and the inter-atomic distance are determined by surface factors occurring on the surface
