History

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!

Describe the most interesting animal home
salantis [7]

Beavers might be the most well-known animal architects, and with good reason. These prolific builders fell trees and gather sticks and mud to construct dams, which create ponds that offer predator protection and easy access to food during the winter.

1) What was Polands military like? 2) Which other country invaded Poland? why? And 3) After Poland surrendered, what did Germans
Mrrafil [7]
3) after Poland surrendered, what the Germans did to the Jewish was they would take them and put them in carts. The carts would go to different camps that where they would start by lining up in lines and the Germans would seperate the men and the woman and kids. The men would go one way and then woman would normally go to the gas chambers where they were killed. Some of the woman we able to go with the men. But the Jewish were treated very poorly. They wouldn’t get fed and they would sleep in these horrible conditions and would be put to work everyday. If you got too sick or weren’t able to work anymore they would go into the he gas chambers or they would be burned. Everyday there were carts going through the camps and that would pick up some of the Jews and bring them to Auschwitz. Where literally everyone that was there were burned or gassed. No one knew that the Jews were being treated like this, only them and the German Army. Sometimes not even the Germans army’s families knew that they were doing that.
