What observation did this geocentric model of the solar system help to explain? orbit speed
the phases of Venus
retrograde motion
the rising of the Sun

In the geocentric model of the solar system, the Earth is viewed as the focal point or the centre of the close planetary system.

Explanation:

The celestial bodies like the moon, planets, sun, stars all rotate and revolve around the Earth (which remains still) with uniform circular movement.

The geocentric model uses an arrangement of epicycles to clarify retrograde movement, whereby the planets moved around little circular ways that thus moved around bigger circles around the Earth. Heliocentric model proposes that the universe rotates around the Sun.

Look at the diagram of the solar system.

The solar system shows the sun and planets in their orbits around Earth in this order: Moon, Mercury, Venus, Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn.

What observation did this geocentric model of the solar system help to explain?

Retrograde motion

Explanation:

I got it right on the Quiz.

Retrograde Motion is caused by Earth moving faster than other planets. The image that goes with it shows the planets and their motion. Their motion can be shown as the speed of the planets.

first of all, it's important to say that the book we shall not be moved, written by joan dash, is about the first strike of women in the united states in the year 1909. the best historical detail to clarify the reader's undertanding is the phrase "general strike". this strike involved women working at a garment factory who decided to protest   long working hours, low wages and brutal conditions. this strike became known as "the new york shirtwaist strike" or "the uprising of the 20,000". the strike mostly involved jewish women who did not speak english or who had a basic knowledge of the english language. finally, the strike went on from november 1909 until february 1910.
