History

labwork [276]3 years ago
4 0
Copernican heliocentrism is the name given to the astronomical model developed by Nicolaus Copernicus and published in 1543. This model positioned the Sun at the center of the Universe, motionless, with Earth and the other planets orbiting around it in circular paths, modified by epicycles, and at uniform speeds.

The major features of Copernican theory are: Heavenly motions are uniform, eternal, and circular or compounded of several circles (epicycles). The center of the universe is near the Sun. Around the Sun, in order, are Mercury, Venus, the Earth and Moon, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and the fixed stars.

Allows calculation of planetary orbital periods around Sun. Allows geometric calculations of planetary distances from Sun. These show nice regularity: more distant planets have longer periods, move slower. Easier to calculate planetary positions than with Ptolemaic model.

I hope this helps!

Why were executive orders 9980 and 9981 significant to the civil rights movement? because they paved the way for gender equality
Tcecarenko [31]

The correct answer is D) because they provided clear pathways and policies for desegregation.

<em>The executive orders 9980 and 9981 were significant for the civil rights movement because they provided clear pathways and policies for desegregation. </em>

Executive order 9980 required federal government civil service commission to establish fair employment rules in all of the agencies for all people. No matter age, nationality, race, or color. Executive order 9981 prohibited discrimination in the military. The executive orders outlined the way policies must be implemented. That is why the executive orders 9980 and 9981 were significant for the civil rights movement because they provided clear pathways and policies for desegregation.

siniylev [52]
The congress was very powerful at the time and needed to be put in line. The two branches were created to control it. The remaining two branches were not specifically enumerated as thoroughly because they were still weak at the time and their power developed over time.
