When Galileo got ahold of a little telescope ... no more than
a kid's toy today ... he soon turned it towards the night sky. 
The story says that he was the first one to do that.  Apparently
everyone else who had these things used them to look at their
neighbors' windows.  Anyway, When Galileo looked at Jupiter,
he saw four tiny dots.  As he watched them night after night, he
saw that the four dots always stayed with Jupiter, but got nearer
and farther from it.  He eventually realized that they were small
bodies in orbit around Jupiter.  And then ... because he was Galileo ...
he made the big intellectual jump:  He reasoned that if there were
smaller bodies in orbit around Jupiter, then Jupiter and the other
planets might also be in orbit around something, and not necessarily
around the Earth.  He understood this as evidence that the sun is
the center of the solar system.

What is one way that continental rifts are similar to mid-ocean ridges and what is one that they are different?
adell [148]

Explanation:

Continental rifts and mid-ocean ridges are both features of a divergent plate margin.

In both cases plates are moving away from one another. Therefore they are creating new land masses.

  • A continental drift like the east African rift valley is where a continent begins to pull apart or diverges.
  • A mid-ocean ridge is divergent margin in the ocean.

They are different in that, continental rift occurs within the continental plate that are on land.

But:

 Mid-ocean ridges are in the oceanic crust in the ocean . They form the largest physiographic structure on the earth surface called the mid-ocean ridge.

How long does it take for the speed of light and sound to travel around the world
irina [24]

-- Light travels straight, not around in a circle. But if it did, it would cover
a distance equal to the length of the equator in about <em>0.13 second</em>.

-- At the speed of sound (in air at standard temperature and pressure),
it would take about <em>32.6 hours </em>to cover the same distance.
