It is clear that the Earth is spherical from the fact that spheres cast curved shadows and the earth casts a curved shadow on the moon during a lunar eclipse. 3 3 1 1 Answer: Linked support 2 2 1 1 2 2 Reason: because It is clear that the Earth is spherical from the fact that spheres cast curved shadows and the earth casts a curved shadow on the moon during a lunar eclipse. 3 3 4. An appeal to emotion is not really an argument at all. Strictly speaking, then, an appeal to emotion isn't a fallacy, since every fallacy is an argument.
It is, therefore, true to say that everything that exists in the Universe is not permanent. The importance of the Sun to life on Earth 1. Earth and other planets are linked to the Sun by a gravitational force. The gravitational force of the Sun is always present to keep Earth in the right position to receive light and heat from the Sun. 2.
The spinning of a planet on its axis is called a. an orbit b. a revolution c. a rotation d. circling 14. Which of the following statements is TRUE? a. All planets revolve around the sun in a clockwise direction. b.
The circumference came out to be 7.66 which was too extremely off of my previous findings. I feel that this moon has this ability for small amounts of change because of horizon landscapes and objects. Where you take these observations will add variety to numbers too if you aren’t located in the same location. This lead to my hypothesis having some basis behind it because the illusion has to do with the earth and its landscape providing the illusion. The illusion is based off of the moon’s size and the objects and landscapes connected with it.
Use the fact that the brightness of a point source, such as a star, varies inversely as the square of its distance from an observer to show that the space telescope can see about seven times farther than a ground-based telescope. This situation "Makes sense". The reason that this makes sense would be simply explained by stating that the closer you are to something the easier it is to see. If a ground telescope has to first see through clouds and the atmosphere to see specific stars. That would mean that the Hubble Telescope being in space would not have to work as hard as the ground telescope and also give a better view because of the distance situation.
Physical size = angular size x 2 x distance / 360 • Understand that constellations are groups of stars as seen from the Earth – the stars may not be close to each other at all • Our view of the celestial sphere is determined by where we stand on the Earth o Study the diagrams that show the path of stars as they rise and set and how those paths appear to differ depending on your location on the Earth • Know what causes the seasons (tilt of the Earth’s axis to it’s orbital plane) o Depend on how Earth’s axis affects the directness of sunlight o Sun’s altitude is also higher in Summer and Lower in Winter Summer solstice – highest path Winter solstice – lowest path Equinoxes – sun rises at exactly due east and sets exactly due west • Review the Moon’s phases • New Moon • Waxing (Right side of moon visible) o Waxing
The dates observed on the simulation set up are very much different from the dates given in the astrological calendar for the entry and exits of the sun. According to the astrological calendar the sun passes through 12 constellations whereas according to my observation on the starry night set up the sun passes through 13 different constellations. The constellations are of different size and since the ecliptic passes through larger or smaller portions of each constellation and the speed of the Earth around the Sun vary along its orbit. Therefore, the time period that sun remains in each constellation vary. I think these dates are different because the astrologers predict that the size of constellation different than what astronomers consider the size of constellation.
From his observations, Anaximander concluded that the sun was nothing more than a disk with hot gas escaping out of it, and that the stars were holes in the sky where light shined through. Although those explanations seem silly, Anaximander also believed that the earth floated free and unsupported in space, which would make sense to the ancients since they had no knowledge of
In the one of the pictures provided by the NASA which stands for National Aeronautics and Space Administration who were also the ones that assigned the mission Apollo 11, no stars could be seen. But with common sense, one should see brighter stars when you are in outer space right? The authors explains that the conspiracy theorists are wrong.
Table 2. Constellation | Season(s) the Constellation can be seen | Ursa major | Summer and winter | Ursa Minor | Summer and winter | Draco | Summer and winter | Cassiopeia | Summer and winter | Lyra | Only Summer | Leo | Summer and winter | Canis Minor | Only winter | Delphinus | Only summer | Canis Major | Only winter | Taurus | Only winter | Cygnus | Only summer | Bootes | Only summer | Orion | Only winter | 4. Using the sky map you can tell whether or not to look high in the sky or just over the horizon by knowing that the centre of the chart shows the stars directly overhead in the zenith, and the edge of the chart shows the stars all around the horizon. The S or South you are looking low in the Southern Horizon, E or East looking in the Eastern Horizon, N or North looking in the Northern Horizon, and W or West looking in the Western Horizon. 5.
