Answer:

Geocentric means the Earth is at the center. The prefix geo means of the Earth. Thus geometry is the measure of the earth, geology is the study of the earth, etc... Heliocentric means the sun is at the center.

Answer:

Explanation:

  • In heliocentric model of solar system the sun is taken as the center of revolution of all the planets.
  • While in geocentric model the earth is taken as the center of universe and all the heavenly bodies are assumed to revolve around it.
  • The heliocentric theory was posed during the pre-Socractic time but disappeared due to loss of ancient Greeks' work. Later on Copernicus published the theory based upon the work of Kepler, Galileo and Newton providing the mathematical support later on.

A (B + 25.0) g mass is hung on a spring. As a result, the spring stretches (8.50 A) cm. If the object is then pulled an addition
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Time period of the osculation will be 2.1371 sec

Explanation:

We have given mass m = (B+25)

And the spring is stretched by (8.5 A )

Here A = 13 and B = 427

So mass m = 427+25 = 452 gram = 0.452 kg

Spring stretched x= 8.5×13 = 110.5 cm

As there is additional streching of spring by 3 cm

So new x = 110.5+3 = 113.5 = 1.135 m

Now we know that force is given by F = mg

And we also know that F = Kx

So mg=Kx

K=\frac{mg}{x}=\frac{0.452\times 9.8}{1.135}=3.90N/m

Now we know that \omega =\sqrt{\frac{K}{m}}

So \frac{2\pi }{T} =\sqrt{\frac{K}{m}}

\frac{2\times 3.14 }{T} =\sqrt{\frac{3.90}{0.452}}

T=2.1371sec

A crate falls from an airplane flying horizontally at an altitude of 2,000 m.
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

20.2 seconds

Explanation:

The airplane (and therefore the crate) initially has no vertical velocity, so v₀ = 0 m/s.

The crate is in free fall, so a = -9.8 m/s².

The crate falls downward, so Δx = -2000 m.

Find: t, the time it takes for the crate to land.

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

-2000 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 20.2 s

It takes 20.2 seconds for the crate to land.

Suppose there is a sample of xenon in a sealed rectangular container. The gas exerts a total force of 6.05 N perpendicular to on
shtirl [24]

Answer:

<h2> 0.147136N/m²</h2>

Explanation:

Pressure is defines as force exerts by a body per its unit area.

Pressure = Force/Area

Given the total force exerted by the gas = 6.05N

Area of the rectangular container = 0.121 m * 0.201 m = 0.024321m²

Pressure of the sample = 6.05/0.02432

Pressure of the sample = 0.147136N/m²
