Process of Science: Explaining the Motions of Planets. To ancient astronomers, the motions of the Sun, the Moon, and the stars s
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

<u>Geocentric Model</u>: - this model is Earth Centered

-Retrograde motion is explained by epicycles

<u>Heliocentric Model</u>: - This model is Sun Centered

-Retrograde motion is explained by the orbital speeds of planets

<u>Both models</u>:- Epicycles and deferents help explain planetary motion

-Planets move in circular orbits and with uniform motion

-The brightness of a planet increases when the planet is closest to Earth

Explanation:

Retrograde motion is an apparent change in the movement of the planet through the sky. Ptolemy's model of the solar systems was geocentric, where the Sun, Moon, planets and start all orbit the Earth in perfectly circular orbits. However this perfectly circular orbits around the Earth did not explain the occasional retrograde motion of the planets. In the Copernicus' heliocentric model, retrograde motion of planets is naturally explained. The explanation for retrograde motion in a heliocentric model is that retrograde occurs roughly when a faster moving planet catches up to and passes a slower moving planet.

how do location near the coast and prevailing wind patterns affect climate in the southern united states
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

The southern part of the United States is heavily influenced by the sea/ocean and the wind patters that occur because of it. The warm waters that surround the region are making it more stable temperature-wise and the weather is warm and wet for big portions of the year. The precipitation is high as well. But this also brings in problems in the shape of the hurricanes, tornadoes, intense big rainstorms, and floods.
