Two competing models attempt to explain the motions and changing brightness of the planets: ptolemy's geocentric model and copernicus' heliocentric model. sort the characteristics according to whether they are part of the geocentric model, the heliocentric model, or both solar system models. drag the appropriate items to their respective bins.

Astone weighing 1.5 kilograms is resting on a rock at a height of 20 meters above the ground. the stone rolls down 10 meters and comes to rest on a patch of moss. the gravitational potential energy of the stone on the moss is joules.

Steelhead trout migrate up stream to spawn. occasionally they need to leap up small waterfalls to continue their journey. fortunately, steelhead are remarkable jumpers, capable of leaving the water at a speed of 8.0 m/s. a. what is the maximum height a steelhead trout can jump? b. leaving the water at 8.0 m/s, the trout lands on top of the water fall 1.8 m high. how long was it in the air?

Ultraviolet radiation is dangerous because it has a high enough energy to damage skin cells. what is the best explanation of the relationship between wavelength and wave energy? a) wave energy is related only to frequency, not wavelength. b) longer wavelengths have lower frequencies but higher energy. c) the shorter the wavelength, the lower the frequency and the higher the energy. d) the shorter the wavelength, the higher the frequency and the higher the energy.
