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.

How do atoms become more chemically stable?
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

For an atom to become totally stable, it needs to have a full outer shell. To do this, two or more atoms will share or give away electrons to each other in a process called bonding.

Explanation:

When an atom loses or gains an electron, it becomes an ion. If it gains an electron, it's a cation, and if it loses one, it's an anion. This happens most commonly in chemical reactions, in which atoms share electrons to form a stable outer shell of 8. For example, the water molecule consists of two hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom.

While traveling along a highway a driver slows from 24 m/s to 15 m/s in 12 seconds. What is the automobile's acceleration? (Reme
djverab [1.8K]

Considering that while traveling on a road with a<u> final speed of 15 m/s</u>, and an<u> initial speed of 24 m/s</u>, with a given time <u>of 12 seconds.</u>

To calculate the acceleration, we apply the following formula:

α = Vf - Vo/t

We add our data into the formula and solve:

α = 15 m/s - 24 m/s/12 sec

α = -0.75 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the car is -0.75 m/s².
