Nicolaus Copernicus was a Polish astronomer who is best known for the theory that the sun is near the center of the universe and

that the earth and other planets revolve around it. Copernicus did not believe that the planets were influenced by or revolved due to the sun; instead he believed that the sun was located near the center of the universe and that it was this center which influenced those bodies and caused them to revolve. When this theory was first published, the scientific community did not accept it. Which reason BEST explains the reason for rejection of this theory? A) It was not published until his death. B) It was not understood by scientific world. C) It lacked sufficient evidence and explanation. D) It lacked practical examples in supporting theory.

Can you explain to be the definition of Quantum Theory?
Vanyuwa [196]
Quantum Theory is commonly related to Quantum Mechanics, or the physics of sub-atomic particles. Quantum Theory defines the theories or educated ideas behind Quantum Mechanics. I believe this is the answer you are looking for.

Answer:

1. F and G.

2. D

3. A and E.

4. B

5. C

Explanation:

1. Acceleration: An increase in a body's velocity. An increase in a body's speed.

In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.

2. Kinematics: a study of moving bodies i.e physical objects in motion.

Motion can be defined as a change in the location (position) of a physical object or body with respect to a reference point.

This ultimately implies that, motion would occur as a result of a change in location (position) of an object with respect to a reference point or frame of reference i.e where it was standing before the effect of an external force.

3. Inertia: A tendency of a body to keep moving. A state of balance of forces on a body and the body remains either at rest or in uniform motion.

Inertia can be defined as the tendency of an object or a body to continue in its state of motion or remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

In physics, Sir Isaac Newton's First Law of Motion is known as Law of Inertia and it states that, an object or a physical body in motion will continue in its state of motion at continuous velocity (the same speed and direction) or, if at rest, will remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

4. Velocity: Fastness and direction of a body.

Velocity can be defined as the rate of change in displacement (distance) with time. Velocity is a vector quantity and as such it has both magnitude and direction.

5. Reaction: an opposite force.

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Action-reaction force pairs make it possible for fishes to swim, birds to fly, cars to move, etc.

In the periodic table, the properties repeat in what direction?​
pogonyaev

Answer:

Left to right and top to bottom

Explanation:

On the periodic table, the properties repeat from left to right and from top to bottom.

Periodic properties have a pattern from the top to the bottom or down a group or family.

Also, across the period from left to right, they also show a repeating pattern.

  1. Certain properties increase from left to right and decreases from top to bottom. E.g. electronegativity.
  2. Also, some properties decreases from left to right and increases from top to bottom e.g. atomic radius.
