Describe how the motion of a planet (like Mars) among the stars of the zodiac on the sky is qualitatively different from the mot
Advocard [28]

Explanation:

In the plane of the Solar System, called Ecliptic plane, Sun is at the center and all the planets including Earth are going around the Sun in their respective orbits. As seen form the Earth, Sun appear to go around it and in this process it  crosses through 12 constellations. These constellations are called as Zodiacs. Now since all the planets move in almost the same plane, they will appear in the sky to be lying near the ecliptic.

Sun's own motion is not that evident to us because of which the impact of that motion is nullified. But, motion of planet is clearly visible and it also shows in their annual round around the Sun. Here, Mars also shows retrograde motion which means it will show a back and forth motion in the sky. Because of which Mars might be visible in the same zodiac for a longer Duration as compared to the Sun.

What is the formula for finding your maximum heart rate
olasank [31]
According to the American Heart Association, the broad,
approximate guideline for your MAXIMUM heart rate is:

                 --  take 220
                 --  subtract your age
                     The unit is "beats per minute".

But there are many things that have an effect on this number.
A few of them are: 
-- your age
-- your weight
-- any medicines you're taking
-- HOW you measure your heart rate.

If you're planning any REGULAR activity that will play with
your heart rate, you really ought to discuss it with your doctor
before you jump in.

An 8-inch dinner knife is sitting on a circular plate so that its ends are on the edge of the plate. if the minor arc that is in
Makovka662 [10]
When we form a right triangle connecting the edge of the knife to the center of the circle and the center of the knife to the center of the circle, the radius of the circle becomes the hypotenuse. Using the trigonometric function,
                                     sin 60° = opposite / hypotenuse = 4 / hypotenuse
The value of the hypotenuse is 4.62 inches. Then, the diameter is twice this value which is 9.24 inches.
