Answer:

They had different beliefs and backgrounds.  

Explanation:

Ptolemy believed in geocentric model of the solar system -the earth at the center and the sun, other planets and stars revolved about it. His belief was based on his observation that sun and other objects in sky seemed to revolve about the Earth as they rose and set in one day.

Copernicus while reading a book, constructed the theory of heliocentric system which was later proved  through observations.

l o which of the following can move from one atom to another A. protons Msideus. B. neutrons C. electrons the nucleus
Tanzania [10]
Electrons can move from one atom to another. 

When a lot of them are doing it at the same time,
you have an electric current.

We asked around here at Brainly, and nobody knows
what an "Msideus" is, but we all know that there aren't
any of them in atoms.

A device consisting of four heavy balls connected by low-mass rods is free to rotate about an axle. It is initially not spinning
zubka84 [21]

The angular speed of the device is 1.03 rad/s.

<h3>What is the conservation of angular momentum?</h3>

A spinning system's ability to conserve angular momentum ensures that its spin will not change until it is subjected to an external torque; to put it another way, the rotation's speed will not change as long as the net torque is zero.

Using the conservation of angular momentum

L_{i}=L_{f}

Here,  = the system's angular momentum before the collision

L_{i} = 0 + mv

= (0.005)(450)(0.752)

= 1.692 kgm²/s

The moment of inertia of the system is given by

I = 2(M₁R₁² + M₂R₂²)+ mR₁²

= 2[(1.2)(0.8)² +(0.5)(0.3)²]+0.005(0.8)²

= 1.6292 kgm²

Here,  = Iω

So,

1.692 = 1.6292(ω)

ω = 1.03 rad/s
