Consider again the set of observations from Part A. This time, classify each observation according to whether it is consistent w

ith only the Earth-centered model, only the Sun-centered model, both models, or neither model. (Note that an observation is "consistent" with a model if that model offers a simple explanation for the observation.)
(1) Mercury goes through a full cycle of phases.
(2) Moon rises in east, sets in west.
(3) stars circle daily around north or south celestial pole.
(4) positions of nearby stars shift slightly back & forth each year.
(5) a distant galaxy rises in east, sets in west each day.
(6) a planet beyond Saturn rises in west, sets in east.
(7) we sometimes see a crescent Jupiter.

Answer:

1. Sun-centered.

2.Both models.

3. Both models.

4. Sun-centered.

5.Both models.

6. Earth-centered only

7. Neither models.

Explanation:

Mercury goes through a full cycle phase. This is not sun-centered because the earth rotes from west to east,therefore objects in the sky moves east to west.

We sometimes see a crescent in Jupiter . These models cannot classify the observation because for an object to be seen as a crescent,the object must come between the earth and the sun.

Observation 3 and 5 can be classified with both models because the rise and set of all objects in the sky depend only on the rotation of the earth.

A student pushes a 40-N block across the floor for a distance of 10 m. How much work was applied to move the block? A. 4 J B. 40
damaskus [11]
Now for this problem, what is given is a 40 Newtons which would represent the force to be applied to the object, and a distance of 10 meters after the application of the said force. When these two combine, work is done. The unit for work is Joules and this is what we are looking for. The formula to get Joules or for work would be the force applied to the object multiplied by the distance that it travelled after the application of the force. It looks like this

work = force x distance
Joules = Newtons x meter

so let us substitute the variables to their corresponding places

Joules = 40 N x 10 m
Joules = 400 J

So the answer to this question would be C. 400 J

crimeas [40]
We are given with 98 Newton weight of an object on the surface of the earth with an acceleration equal to 9.8 m/s2. This means the mass of the object is equal to 98/9.8 or 10 kg. Hence the weight of the object 10,000 kilometers above sea level where acceleration is 1.49 m/s2 is 14.9 Newtons.

A light wave is traveling through the air and then enter water. How will the light change?
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

A) It will move at a different speed (i.e slower)

B) A vacuum

Explanation:

For A), Light moves at a different speed as it starts to interact more with the particles in said medium (in this case, water) than the earlier medium.

For B), Light propagates using its own particle, i.e the photon whereas sound is more of a transmission of energy from the particles it originates from. In a vacuum, there are no particles to transfer energy to, that is why light can travel in a vacuum and sound cannot
