Why did Aristotle's geocentric theory fail to match the expected predictions?

Physics

NNADVOKAT [17]3 years ago
6 0

Aristotle's geocentric theory failed to match the expected predictions because a few celestial objects appear to have retrograde motion.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Aristotle’s theory states that all the bodies in universe rotate around the earth, and earth is located at the centre. But, the most serious challenge it was given was that, the difference found in the paths of revolution of mercury and Venus. They are revolving around the sun, and not the earth, periodically.

This is the significant drawback, and major factor for the Copernicus and the other models to be achieved. The mercury and Venus, closest planets to earth, and the sun too, are not following the earth’s path. And hence, upon studying clearly, all celestial bodies do not follow a path round the earth, but around a fireball, that is sun.

Sidana [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Voltage, V = 1.58 V

Power, P = 1 W

1 A.h

Charge, Q = 1 A.h = 1 x 3600 A.s = 3600 C

Power x time = Voltage x charge

1 x t = 1.58 x 3600

t = 1.58 x 3600 second

t = 1.58 hours

Ranking Task: The Electromagnetic Spectrum
shutvik [7]

The increasing order of the wavelength from left to right are as follows Gamma Rays <  X-rays < UV rays < visible rays < infrared rays < microwaves < radio waves.

The electromagnetic spectrum consists of many waves which are made up of electric field and the magnetic field.

It is said that the electromagnetic wave behaves like particle as well as the wave.

The particle like pieces of the wave are called photons which contains the energy of the wave and the electromagnetic waves are primarily decided by the wavelength and the frequency of the wave.

The group of electromagnetic waves are known as electromagnetic spectrum.

The electromagnetic wave in the order of increasing wavelength are Gamma Rays <  X-rays < UV rays < visible rays < infrared rays < microwaves < radio waves.

a charge of 7.2x10^-5C is placed in an Electric field with a strength of 4.8x10^5N/C. if the Electric potential energy of the ch
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

d= 2.2 m

Explanation:

The data given in the question is

Charge : q =7.2 \times 10^{-5} C

Electric field Strength : E = 4.8 \times 10^{5} N/C

Electrical potential Energy : U = 75J

Let, the distance be "d"

So, the formula for Electrical potential energy is

U= q \times E \times d

Simplified formula for distance become

d=\frac{U}{q \times E}

Now , insert the value

d=\frac{75 J}{7.2 \times 10^{-5}C \times 4.8 \times 10^5 N/C}

or,

d=2.17 m

Rounding off

d= 2.2 m

What does weighing less on the moon mean for astronauts on the moon?
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Isaac Newton discovered that as an object's mass increases, the gravitational attraction of that object increases. Thus, the gravitational attraction on the Moon is much less than it is here on Earth, and a person weighs less on the Moon.

hope this helps!
