Consider the hypothetical observation "a planet beyond Saturn rises in west, sets in east." This observation is not consistent w

ith a Sun-centered model, because in this model __________.

b. all objects in space must orbit the Sun in the same direction
c. planets beyond Saturn must orbit the Sun more slowly than closer-in planets
d. the rise and set of all objects depends only on Earth’s rotation

This observation is not consistent with a Sun-centered model, because in this model "the rise and set of all objects depends only on Earth’s rotation".

<u>Answer:</u> Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Copernican heliocentrism, the astronomical model's title which was created by Nicolaus Copernicus and released in 1543. This model placed the Sun in motionless position near the Universe's center, with Earth and the planets of other which orbiting it in a circular orbits, altered by epicycles, and also at constant speeds.

Out of several planets in a determined order the Earth orbits around a stationary sun having three motions like annual revolution, daily rotation, and its axis is tilted annually. The planets' retrograde motion is understood by motion from the Earth.

A device called an insolation meter is used to measure the intensity of sunlight. It has an area of 100 cm2 and registers 6.50 W
labwork [276]

Answer:

<h2>650W/m²</h2>

Explanation:

Intensity of the sunlight is expressed as I  = Power/cross sectional area. It is measured in W/m²

Given parameters

Power rating = 6.50Watts

Cross sectional area = 100cm²

Before we calculate the intensity, we need to convert the area to m² first.

100cm² = 10cm * 10cm

SInce 100cm = 1m

10cm = (10/100)m

10cm = 0.1m

100cm² = 0.1m * 0.1m = 0.01m²

Area (in m²) = 0.01m²

Required

Intensity of the sunlight I

I = P/A

I = 6.5/0.01

I = 650W/m²

Hence, the intensity of the sunlight in W/m² is 650W/m²

A small ferryboat is 3.90 m wide and 6.30 m long. when a loaded truck pulls onto it, the boat sinks an additional 5.00 cm into t
Leya [2.2K]
When the truck's weight is added to the boat, the boat sinks 5 cm deeper,
and displaces additional water whose weight is equal to the weight of the
truck.

The volume of the additional displaced water is

             (3.9 m) x (6.3 m) x (5.0 cm)

         =  (3.9 m) x (6.3 m) x (0.05 m)  =   1.2285 m³ .

The weight of that much water is the weight of the truck.

          Mass of 1 liter of water  =  1 kilogram

          1.2285 m³  =  1,228.5 liters  =  1,228.5 kg of water.

          Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

                      = (1,228.5 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)  =  12,039 Newtons.

                                                                  (about 2,708 pounds)

Identify the ways in which carbon is added to the atmosphere?
marissa [1.9K]
Each time you exhale, you are releasing carbon dioxide gas (CO2) into the atmosphere. Animals and plants get rid ofcarbon dioxide gas through a process called respiration. Carbon moves from fossil fuels to the atmosphere when fuels are burned.
