3 0

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.

Why does it take mars over 500 days to orbit the sun?
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

Mar's orbital path is more than that of Earth, thus it takes more number of days to orbit around the sun.

Explanation:

Mars takes over 500 days to orbit all the way around the sun than Earth because its distance from the sun (228 million kilometers) is greater than that of Earth (150 million kilometers) which takes it 365 days.

Planets that orbit closer to the sun take shorter time to orbit around the sun because the cover a shorter orbital distance and orbit faster than those planets further from the sun.

<u>For example</u>

Using Earth's distance from the sun, 150 million kilometers and the number of days taken to orbits the sun ,365 days and the distance Mars is from the Earth, 228 million kilometers, you can approximate the time Mar takes to orbit the sun as:

Earth 150 million kilometers  = 365 days

Mars  228 million kilometers= ?

Cross product ; (228 *365) /150 =555 -----(a value closer to that in the question)

A 2000 kg car slams on the brakes and slows down at a rate of -10 m/s2. How much force are the brakes applying?
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

-20,000N

Explanation:

Force (N) = mass (kg) x acceleration (m/s²)

So,

Force = 2000 x -10

= -20,000N (Newtons)
