geocentric or heliocentric? decide whether daily path of stars is consistent or inconsistent with a belief in an earth center system​

Aparticle moves according to a law of motion s = f(t), 0 ≤ t ≤ 12, where t is measured in seconds and s in feet. f(t) = cos(πt/6) (a) find the velocity at time t (in ft/s).

The magnitude of the amount of energy released by burning a fuel source, measured in energy per unit mass, is called its fuel value. note that the fuel value is the negative of the isobaric specific heat of combustion for the fuel. if all the energy obtained from burning 1.23 pounds of butane with a fuel value of 10.85 kcal/g is used to heat 128.0 kg of water at an initial temperature of 18.3 °c, what is the final temperature? note that 1 lb = 453.6 g.

The man of mass m1 and the woman of mass m2 are standing on opposite ends of the platform of mass m0 which moves with negligible friction and is initially at rest with s = 0. the man and woman begin to approach each other. derive an expression for the displacement s of the platform when the two meet in terms of the displacement x1 of the man relative to the platform.
