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.
this model is earth-centered.
this model is sun-centered.
retrograde motion is explained by the orbital speeds of planets.

Astudent is performing an experiment comparing sound and light waves. the student gathers the following data. what conclusion does the student most likely make based on this data? light waves always travel the same speed; however, the speed of sound is determined by the medium that it travels through. all sound waves always have the same energy, so the temperature of the medium does not affect wave speed. light needs to vibrate particles, so it travels fastest in tightly packed solids, while sound does not need a medium, so it travels fastest in a gas. tightly packed particles in solids slow down the light waves; however, sound waves make particles bounce into each other, so they travel faster in solids.
