The geocentric model, in all of its complexity, survived scientific scrutiny for almost 1,400 years. however, in modern astronomy, scientists seek to explain the natural and physical world we live in as simply as possible. the complexity of ptolemy's model was an indicator that his theory was inherently flawed. why, then, was the geocentric model the leading theory for such a long time, even though the heliocentric model more simply explained the observed motions and brightness of the planets?
a) the heliocentric model did not make noticeably better predictions than the geocentric model.
b) the geocentric model conformed to both the philosophical and religious doctrines of the time.
c) ancient astronomers did not observe stellar parallax, which would have provided evidence in favor of the heliocentric model.
d) the complexity of the geocentric model was appealing to most ancient astronomers.
e) from earth, all heavenly bodies appeared to circle around a stationary earth.

hi there!

your question asks at which segment does freezing occur.

since we're talking about water, the freezing point of water will be 32 degrees fahrenheit or below.

hope this ! ~

the working equation for the angular size is the product of the physical size and 360 degrees divided by the product of two pi and distance from earth. the minimum size would be 0.559 degrees while the maximum size would be 0.49 degrees. 

answer: at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.

explanation:

since we have given that

the population for alpha city, t years after january 1, 2004 is given as

first we find out the initial population, i.e. t=0,

so, our quadratic equation becomes,

according to question, we have said that if the population has twice its initial population, then it becomes

so, time taken to reach this above mentioned population is given by

now, we know that time can't be negative so, we take t=9.149 years.

hence, at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.

the small 0.38-kg slider is known to move from position a to position b along the vertical-plane slot. determine (a) the work done on the body by its weight and (b) the work done on the body by the spring. the distance r = 0.70 m, the spring modulus k = 154 n/m, and the unstretched length of the spring is 0.53 m
