Answer:

1. The Moon

During lunar eclipses, the shadow on the Moon’s surface is round. This shadow is the planet’s, and it’s a great clue about the spherical shape of the Earth.

2. Seeing farther from higher

The higher up you climb, the farther you will see. we tend to relate this to Earthly obstacles, like the fact we have houses or other trees obstructing our vision on the ground, and climbing upwards we have a clear view, but that’s not the true reason. Even if you stood on a completely clear plateau with no obstacles between you and the horizon, you would see much farther from the greater height than you would on the ground.

This phenomenon is caused by the curvature of the Earth as well, and would not happen if the Earth was flat.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3. The existence of time zones

We have time zones because when the Sun is illuminating one side of the spherical Earth, the other side is dark. This can only be explained if the world is round, and rotating around its own axis. At a certain point when the sun is shining on one part of the Earth, the opposite side is dark, and vice versa. That allows for time differences and time zones, specifically ones that are larger than 12 hours.

1. Why do you think the geocentric model was popular for<br> so long?
zhannawk [14.2K]
Answer:

Because humans couldn’t see outside of earth. Gailieo Galilei used his telescope to prove this was wrong ultimately.

More:

it was debunked till the 16th century. Scientists observations and knowledge had advanced too far for the geocentric model to explain them.
I looked like the sun was moving from earth but it really earth thats moving around the sun. The parallax is effect helped explain this.

Answer:

Sulfur; nitrogen.

Explanation:

Acid precipitation results when sulfur and nitrogen compounds react with water in the atmosphere.

This acid precipitation is also known as acid rain and it is typically caused by the chemical reaction between sulfur oxide and nitrogen oxide which are released into the air as a result of burning fossil fuels, with water and other chemical elements present in the atmosphere.

Generally, acid precipitation (acid rain) usually have a pH of about 5.1 or below and as such, it is very acidic nature i.e possessing a large amount of hydrogen ions.

Hence, acid precipitation (acid rain) when washed to the earth has negative or harmful effects on various living and non-living organisms such as animals, plants, cars, buildings etc.
