Two competing models attempt to explain the motions and changing brightness of the planets: ptolemy's geocentric model and copernicus' heliocentric model.

sort the characteristics according to whether they are part of the geocentric model, the heliocentric model, or both solar system models.

drag the appropriate items to their respective bins.

epicycles and deferents explain planetary motion.
planets move in circular orbits and with uniform motion.
the brightness of a planet increases when the planet is closest to earth.

Acoal-fired plant generates 600 mw of electric power. the plant uses 4.8 x 10^6 kg of coal each day, and the heat of combustion of coal is 3.3x 10^7 j/kg. the steam that drives the turbines is at a temperature of 300° c, and the exhaust water is at 37° c. (a) what is the overall efficiency of the plant for generating electric power? (b) how much thermal energy is exhausted each day? (c) what is the change in entropy of the universe for this heat engine? (d) using the same heat reservoirs, what is the maximum possible (carnot) efficiency for a heat engine?
