Answer:

Ptolemy proposed a model, he reference system is centered on the Earth

Copernicus, proposed a deferent system,  this system is centered on the Sun, where it is at the origin of the system

Explanation:

Thousands of years ago, Ptolemy proposed a model to explain the movement of the planets and stars in the sky, in this model the reference system is centered on the Earth, so each body is orbiting in different spheres around the Earth as its center, this system had very complicated calculations and curves to be able to explain the orbits of the planets.

More recently Copernicus, proposed a deferent system, this system is centered on the Sun, where it is at the origin of the system, in this system the movement of the planets are ellipses, which is a much simpler explanation and has been widely accepted, in current systems the reference system is fixed in the bodies more massive, since this simplifies the explanation of the movements.

<span>Data:
mass =  110-g bullet
d = 0.636 m
Force = 13500 + 11000x - 25750x^2, newtons.

a) Work, W

W = ∫( F* )(dx) =∫[13500+ 11000x - 25750x^2] (dx) =

W =  13500x + 5500x^2 - 8583.33 x^3 ] from 0 to 0.636  =

W = 8602.6 joule

b) x= 1.02 m

</span><span><span>W =  13500x + 5500x^2 - 8583.33 x^3 ] from</span> 0 to 1.02

W = 10383.5

c) %

[W in b / W in a] = 10383.5 / 8602.6 = 1.21 => W in b is 21% more than work in a.

Mr. and Mrs. miller both have blue eyes. Could any of their children be born with brown eyes? Circle yes or no. What tule or rea
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

Generally, darker colors dominate so a person with one brown-eyed gene and one blue-eyed gene will have brown eyes. The only way to present blue eyes is to inherit two copies of the blue-eyed gene. However, brown-eyed parents can pass a recessive blue-eyed gene. Therefore, two brown-eyed partners can birth a blue-eyed baby.
