Aristarchus(310-230 BC)
Aristarchus was a Greek Astronomer and Mathematician. He proposed the heliocentric model of the Solar System. He attempted to measure the distances from the moon to the sun.
Aristotle (334-322 BC)
<span>Aristotle was a Greek Philosopher. He was the first person to propose this historical model. He thought the Earth was in the center of all celestial beings. His idea was that the Earth was in the middle of the sun, moon, stars, and other planets. </span>
Ptolemy(100-170 CE)
<span>Ptolemy was a astronomer and a geographer and a mathematician! He proposed the geocentric model. He believed that a celestial body could go at a constant speed in a perfect circle. It was called the "wheels-on-wheels" system. It had better observations than the model that had came before his. His geocentric model was used for the next 14 centuries! </span>
Kepler(1571-1630)
<span>German astronomer and mathematician, Johannes Kepler, studied very hard and closely, and he found out that the planets did not fit the observations that were made by previous explorers. He found one that fit the best out of them all! He found three principles, called Kepler's Laws. </span>

Synchronous communications satellites are placed in a circular orbit that is 3.59 107 m above the surface of the earth. What is
suter [353]

Answer: 0.223 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

We can solve this with the Law of Universal Gravitation and knowing the acceleration due gravity g of an object above the surface of the planet decreases with the distance (height) of this object from the center of the planet.

Well, according to the law of universal gravitation:

F=G\frac{m_{E}m}{r^2}  (1)

Where:

F is the module of the force exerted between both bodies

G=6.67(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}} is the gravitational constant

m_{E}=5.98(10)^{24} kg is the mass of the Earth

m are the mass of each communications satellite

r=R_{E}+h is the distance between the center of the Earth and the satellite

R_{E}=6.38(10)^{6} m is the radius of the Earth

h=3.59(10)^{7} m is the height of the satellite, measured from the Earth's surface

On the other hand, we know according to <u>Newton's 2nd law of motion:</u>

F=mg  (2)

Combining (1) and (2):

G\frac{m_{E}m}{r^2}=mg  (3)

Isolating g:

g=\frac{G M_{E}}{r^2}  (4)

Remembering r=R_{E}+h:

g=\frac{G M_{E}}{(R_{E}+h)^2}  (5)

g=\frac{(6.67(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.98(10)^{24} kg)}{(6.38(10)^{6} m+3.59(10)^{7} m)^2}  

Finally:

g=0.223 m/s^{2}

Invader Zim’s spaceship is sitting at rest in outer space. The ship then accelerates at a uniform rate of 12 m/s2 for 10 seconds
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

120 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 12 m/s²

t = 10 s

Find: v

v = at + v₀

v = (12 m/s²) (10 s) + 0 m/s

v = 120 m/s
