Let's say they want to try and decide between the heliocentric (Sun-centered) model, and a model in which everything revolves around Mercury. Someone suggests looking at Earth, to see how lit-up it can look, like Galileo did with Venus. Let's assume you have a telescope that can magnify Earth well enough to see any phases it might have. Would this work well, for trying to tell the difference between the heliocentric and Mercury-centric models

When a vertical beam of light passes through a transparent medium, the rate at which its intensity i decreases is proportional to i(t), where t represents the thickness of the medium (in feet). in clear seawater, the intensity 3 feet below the surface is 25% of the initial intensity i0 of the incident beam. what is the intensity of the beam "10" feet below the surface? (give your answer in terms of i0. round any constants or coefficients to five decimal places.)
