What, it isn’t?!
Sorry, I had to.
As far as I have read and understood, the Sumerians and later the Babylonians both had astronomical calendars that already differentiated planets and stars. Earth was not the center to them, the Sun likely was. That was around 2,200 - 1,600 BC.
After that, Greek philosopher Aristarchus of Samos (310 - 230 BC) was the first (recorded) to have believed the solar system was organized around the Sun, rather than the Earth. His heliocentric model was unpopular during Aristarchus’ lifetime, although it would inspire astronomers centuries later, such as Copernicus and Galileo.
Now, there are numerous archeological findings (cave paintings) and studies, that all suggest an understanding of complex astronomy in prehistoric times dating back as far as 40,000 years. This also explains how early, prehistoric migrants may have navigated the seas.

Inductive reactance (Z) = ω L = 2Πf L = (2Π) (12,000) (L)
I = V / Z
4 A = 16v / (24,000Π L)
Multiply each side by (24,000 Π L):
96,000 Π L = 16v
Divide each side by (96,000 Π) :
L = 16 / 96,000Π = 5.305 x 10⁻⁵ Henry
L = 53.05 microHenry
Answer:
83%
Explanation:
On the surface, the weight is:
W = GMm / R²
where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the Earth, m is the mass of the shuttle, and R is the radius of the Earth.
In orbit, the weight is:
w = GMm / (R+h)²
where h is the height of the shuttle above the surface of the Earth.
The ratio is:
w/W = R² / (R+h)²
w/W = (R / (R+h))²
Given that R = 6.4×10⁶ m and h = 6.3×10⁵ m:
w/W = (6.4×10⁶ / 7.03×10⁶)²
w/W = 0.83
The shuttle in orbit retains 83% of its weight on Earth.
