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!

kumpel [21]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Lars is completing a history project about World War I. On the British government's National Archives website, he finds letters from American soldiers as well as documents written by museum curators and historians that give background information about the war, supported by primary sources from their archives' collections.

Which descriptions best characterize this information? Select three options.

a. outdated facts, b. credible sources, c. primary sources, d. biased information , e. reasoned judgment

Answer:

b. credible sources

c. primary sources

e. reasoned judgment

Explanation:

Primary sources are documents that were made and built at the time the historic event they document is taking place. In that case, they can claim that the letters that American soldiers wrote during the First World War are a primary source.

A credible source is one that is written by an expert on a given subject, in addition, these sources have evidence that supports all the statements they present. When Lars uses historical sources written by curators and historians who used primary sources as evidence, he is using credible feints.

After doing this research, Lars will be able to draw conclusions about the first world war using these sources as evidence, thus making an easoned judgment.
