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.

How will the amount of power change if less work is done in more time?
yKpoI14uk [10]

The amount of power change if less work is done in more time"then the amount of power will decrease".

<u>Option: B</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The rate of performing any work or activity by transferring amount of energy per unit time is understood as power. The unit of power is watt

Power = \frac{Work}{Time}  

Here this equation showcase that power is directly proportional to the work but dependent upon time as time is inversely proportional to the power i.e as time increases power decreases and vice versa.

This can be understood from an instance, on moving a load up a flight of stairs, the similar amount of work is done, no matter how heavy but  when the work is done in a shorter period of time more power is required.

A conducting sphere has a net charge of -4.8x10-17 C. What is the approximate number of excess electrons on the sphere?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

The number is  N  = 300

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  net charge is  Q =  -4.8 *10^{-17 } \  C

Generally the charge on a electron is e = - 1.60 *10^{-19 } \ C

Generally the number of excess electrons is mathematically represented as

      N  =  \frac{Q}{e}

=>  N  =  \frac{-4.8 *10^{-17}}{-1.60 *10^{-19}}

=>  N  = 300

Describe atmospheric pressure and water pressure​
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The difference is that water is an incompressible fluid — its density is almost constant as the pressure changes — while air is a compressible fluid — its density changes with pressure. ... Atmospheric pressure is the pressure exerted on a surface by the weight of the atmosphere (a compressible fluid) above it
