1. Seth hiked 3.5 miles each hour.
Ordered pairs were graphed of
the total distance Seth hiked. The
x-coordinate represents the total
time, in hours, Seth hiked, and the
y-coordinate represents the total
distance, in miles, he hiked. Select all
of the ordered pairs that represent-

- discuss some of the cultural and philosophical implications related to the geocentric modelarrow_forwardI'm having trouble completing the problem I've attached a picture of below. I was able to find the the Earth's average speed in m/s relative to the sun by doing (2pi*(1.49x10^11))/31536000. But I am struggling to find the average velocity for the same thing over a period of one year in m/s. I was wondering how to calculate that? I've tried doing the (final velocity-initial velocity)/2 but the program doesn't accept my answer when using that approach.arrow_forward(the complete question is in the picture) If the Newtonian constant has units G = [N · m2/kg2], the speed of light has units c = [m/s], the mass has units M = [kg] and the SI unit newtons is equivalentto N = [kg · m/s2], what are the units of the relation GM/c3?A.

Why does classical physics seem more intuitive to us than modern physics does?arrow_forwardThe Earth is travelling around the sun at a speed of about 67,000 miles per hour [mph]. If it takes one year [yr] for the Earth to circle the Sun and we assume the Earth?s orbit is circular, what is the radius of the orbit in units of meters [m]?

- Use Kepler's Law, which states that the square of the time, T, required for a planet to orbit the Sun varies directly with the cube of the mean distance, a, that the planet is from the Sun.Using Earth's time of 1 year and a mean distance of 93 million miles, the equation relating T (in years) and a (in million miles) is 804375T2=a3.Use that relation equation to determine the time required for a planet with mean distance of 206 million miles to orbit the Sun.
