Answer:

Ptolemy made geocentric model of the solar system using epicycles

Explanation:

Ptolemy made geocentric model of the solar system using epicycles.

This model accounted for the apparent motions of the planets in a very direct way, by assuming that each planet moved on a small circle, called an epicycle, which moved on a larger circle, called a deferent.

Therefore, Ptolemy is the answer.

Should nuclear energy be part of sustainable energy future? explain your answer

liraira [26]

Answer:

Nuclear power is presently a sustainable energy source, but could become completely renewable if the source of uranium changed from mined ore to seawater. Since U extracted is continuously replenished through geologic processes, nuclear would become as endless as solar.

A balloon with a charge of 6.0 μC is held a distance of 0.80 m from a second balloon having the same charge. Calculate the magni

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:0.506 N

Explanation:

Given

Charge on first balloon $q_1=6\ \mu C$

Charge on second balloon is $q_2=6\ \mu C$

Distance between them $r=0.8\ m$

Electrostatic Repulsive force is given by

$F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

Where K is constant

$F=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times 6\times 10^{-6}\times 6\times 10^{-6}}{(0.8)^2}$

$F=\dfrac{324\times 10^{-3}}{0.64}$

$F=0.506\ N$

Give an example of nonpoint-source pollution

Ket [755]

Nonpoint source pollution is pollution that affects bodies of water, so remembering this can help in the future with this type of question. Some examples of nonpoint source pollution are; Excess fertilizers and herbicides, oil and toxic chemical runoff, as well as sediment from eroding stream banks. I hope this helps :)

Umnica [9.8K]

$a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{5N}{4kg}=1.2\frac{m}{s^2}$

$\Delta v = a \cdot t = 1.2 \frac{m}{s^2} \cdot 3 s = 3.6 \frac{m}{s}$

$v = v_0 + \Delta v = 2 + 3.6 = 5.6 \frac{m}{s}$
