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 :)

Consider a 20 cm thick granite wall with a thermal conductivity of 2.79 W/m·K. The temperature of the left surface is held const
kozerog [31]

Answer:

The right wall surface temperature and heat flux through the wall is 35.5°C and 202.3W/m²

Explanation:

Thickness of the wall is  L=  20cm = 0.2m

Thermal conductivity of the wall is  K = 2.79 W/m·K

Temperature at the left side surface is T₁ =  50°C

Temperature of the air is T = 22°C

Convection heat transfer coefficient is  h = 15 W/m2·K

Heat conduction process through wall is equal to the heat convection process so

Q_{conduction} = Q_{convection}

Expression for the heat conduction process is

Q_{conduction} = \frac{K(T_1 - T)}{L}

Expression for the heat convection process is

Q_{convection} = h(T_2 - T)

Substitute the expressions of conduction and convection in equation above

Q_{conduction} = Q_{convection}

\frac{K(T_1 - T_2)}{L} = h(T_2 - T)

Substitute the values in above equation

\frac{2.79(50- T_2)}{0.2} = 15(T_2 - 22)\\\\T_2 = 35.5^\circC

Now heat flux through the wall can be calculated as

q_{flux} = Q_{conduction} \\\\q_{flux}  = \frac{K(T_1 - T_2)}{L}\\\\q_{flux}  = \frac{2.79(50 - 35.5)}{0.2}\\\\q_{flux} = 202.3W/m^2

Thus, the right wall surface temperature and heat flux through the wall is 35.5°C and 202.3W/m²

Starting from Newton’s law of universal gravitation, show how to find the speed of the moon in its orbit from the earth-moon dis
WARRIOR [948]

Answer: 1010.92 m/s

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}} (1)

Where:

F is the gravitational force between Earth and Moon

G=6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}} is the Gravitational Constant  

M=5.972(10)^{24} kg is the mass of the Earth

m=7.349(10)^{22} kg is the mass of the Moon

r=3.9(10)^{8} m is the distance between the Earth and Moon

Asuming the orbit of the Moon around the Earth is a circular orbit, the Earth exerts a centripetal force on the moon, which is equal to F:

F=m.a_{C} (2)

Where a_{C} is the centripetal acceleration given by:

a_{C}=\frac{V^{2}}{r} (3)  

Being V the orbital velocity of the moon

Making (1)=(2):

m.a_{C}=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}} (4)

Simplifying:

a_{C}=G\frac{M}{r^{2}} (5)

Making (5)=(3):

\frac{V^{2}}{r}=G\frac{M}{r^{2}} (6)  

Finding V:

V=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}} (7)

V=\sqrt{\frac{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.972(10)^{24} kg)}{3.9(10)^{8} m}} (8)

Finally:

V=1010.92 m/s
