Answer:

Copernicus' heliocentric model

Explanation:

Nicolaus Copernicus was the first one to give the heliocentric model of the solar system. The heliocentric model of the solar system describes the sun to be at the center of the solar system and earth and other planets with their moons revolving about it in concentric orbits.

Kepler believed in Copernicus's heliocentric model but gave laws of planetary motion that described the orbit of the planets to be elliptical instead of circular.

Tycho Brahe view of the solar system was that sun revolved around earth but other planets revolved around the sun.

Ptolemy's geocentric model considered earth to be the center of the universe and sun and other planets revolving about it.

I believe it was Copernicus' heliocentric model.

heliocentric - the sun is at the center and the planets revolve around it.

hope this helps :)

An electron of mass 9.11x10^-31 kg has an initial speed of 2.40x10^5 m/s. It travels in a straight line, and its speed increases
egoroff_w [7]

Answer: A) Force = 3.841*10^-18 N.

B) force (f) is 4.30* 10^12 times greater than the weight (Fg).

Explanation: mass of electronic charge = 9.11*10^-31kg

v = final velocity = 6.80*10^5 m/s

u = initial velocity = 2.40 * 10^5 m/s

S= distance covered = 4.8cm = 0.048m

a = acceleration

Since the acceleration of the electron is assumed to be constant, newton's laws of motion are valid.

Thus, recall that

v² = u² + 2aS

(6.80*10^5)² = ( 2.40*10^5)² + 2*a( 0.048)

46.24 * 10^10 = 5.76 * 10^10 + 0.096a

46.24 *10^10 - 5.76* 10^10 = 0.096a

40.48* 10^10 = 0.096a

a = 40.48 * 10^10/0.096

a = 4.2167*10^12m/s².

Force = mass * acceleration

Force = 9.11*10^-31 * 4.2167*10^12

Force = 3.841*10^-18 N.

Weight =Fg= mg where g = acceleration due gravity = 9.8m/s²

Fg= 9.11*10^-31 * 9.8

Fg = 8.9278* 10^-30 N

By comparing the force and the weight, we have that

F/Fg = 3.841 * 10^-18/8.9278 * 10^-30 = 4.30* 10^12.

This implies that the force (f) is 4.30* 10^12 times greater than the weight (Fg).
