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 :)

Pitch is the sensation of certain frequencies to the ear. High frequency = high pitch, low frequency = low pitch.

f = c(speed of the wave) / λ (wavelength)

1. 343m/s / 0.77955m = 439.99 Hz
This corresponds to pitch A

2. 343m/s / 0.52028m = 659.26 Hz
 This corresponds to pitch E

3. 343m/s / 0.65552m = 523.349 Hz
 This corresponds to pitch C

4. using f = c / λ
λ = c / f
= 343m/s / 587.33 = 0.583999 m = 0.584 m

A plane flies 1800 miles in 9 hours, with a tailwind all the way. the return trip on the same route, now with a headwind, tak

Fittoniya [83]

Initially its moving with tail wind so here the speed of wind will support the motion of the plane

so we can say

$V_{plane} + v_{wind} = \frac{distance}{time}$

$V_{plane} + v_{wind} = \frac{1800}{9}$

$V_{plane} + v_{wind} = 200 mph$

now when its moving with head wind we can say that wind is opposite to the motion of the plane

$V_{plane} - v_{wind} = \frac{distance}{time}$

$V_{plane} - v_{wind} = \frac{1800}{12}$

$V_{plane} - v_{wind} = 150mph$

now by using above two equations we can find speed of palne as well as speed of wind

$V_{plane} = 175 mph$

$v_{wind} = 25 mph$

What will happen if a car experiences a 300 N force to the right from the engine and a separate 150 N force due to friction and

gayaneshka [121]

Force applied on the car due to engine is given as

$F_1 = 300 N$ towards right

Also there is a force on the car towards left due to air drag

$F_2 = 150 N$ towards left

now the net force on the car will be given as

$\vec F_{net} = \vec F_1 + \vec F_2$

now we can say that since the two forces are here opposite in direction so here the vector sum of two forces will be the algebraic difference of the two forces.

So we can say

$F_{net} = F_1 - F_2$
