magine there were intelligent beings on Mercury, and they were at the state of development that Europe was in, in the early 1600s. Let's say they want to try and decide between the heliocentric (Sun-centered) model, and a model in which everything revolves around Mercury. Someone suggests looking at Earth, to see how lit-up it can look, like Galileo did with Venus. Let's assume you have a telescope that can magnify Earth well enough to see any phases it might have. Would this work well, for trying to tell the difference between the heliocentric and Mercury-centric models

Under conditions for which the same room temperature is maintained by a heating or cooling system, it is not uncommon for a person to feel chilled in the winter but comfortable in the summer. provide a plausible explanation for this situation (with supporting calculations) by considering a room whose air temperature is maintained at 20â°c throughout the year, while the walls of the room are nominally at 27â°c and 14â°c in the summer and winter, respectively. the exposed surface of a person in the room may be assumed to be at a temperature of 32â°c throughout the year and to have an emissivity of 0.90. the coefficient associated with heat transfer by natural convection between the person and the room air is approximately 2 w/m2 â‹…â‹… k. what is the ratio of the thermal resistance due to convection to the thermal resistance due to radiation in the summer? what is the ratio of thermal resistances in the winter
