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 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.

explanation:

the universal gravitation equation. since the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, more massive objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. if the mass of one of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is doubled.
