Who was the first scientist that said that the earth was elliptical?
its not its spherical
How are elliptical galaxies perfect spheres?
They are not perfect spheres. If they were, they would have been called spherical, not elliptical!
Compare and contrast the three types of galaxies?
Galaxies that appear to have a bulge in the middle and arms that spherical outward, like pinwheels, are spherical. Elliptical galaxies look like round or flattened balls. Galaxies that do not have regular shapes are known as irregular galaxies.
How do you use elliptical in a sentence?
The orbits of the planets around the Sun are not spherical as many people imagine but are in fact elliptical.
How do you define a ball?
In nature, a ball is any spherical body such as a star or planet. A ball is also a man-made spherical or elliptical object for playing games.
Describe the difference between an elliptical galaxy and a globular cluster?
An elliptical galaxy is figureless, bright galaxy that is elliptical in shape. A globular cluster is spherical constellation of stars that acts like a satellite orbiting a galaxyâ??s core.
In elliptical geometry do two points not determine a unique line?
No. In spherical elliptical geometry, for example, given the earth's North and South poles, there are an infinite number of lines of longitudes between them.
What is the shape of companion cells?
Irregular and sometimes spherical depending on their position between the sieve tubes.
Why does Eros have an irregular shape instead of a spherical shape?
Jupiter's gravity It is not massive enough to pull itself into a spherical shape like something the size of the moon or Earth.
What does a asteroid have a irregular of?
If the asteroid is large, its own gravity will pull it together, into a more or less spherical shape. With smaller asteroids, the gravity is not large enough, and the shape will be irregular.
What are the three types of galaxies and what are there and shape?
There are actually four broad classifications : spiral, elliptical, lenticular and irregular. Spiral galaxies look, basically, like our Milky Way Galaxy, though there are some variations. Ellipticals can look elongated like a football, or almost spherical. Lenticulars are "lens shaped" galaxies. The irregular category covers just about everything else and include galaxies like our neighbors, the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds . (Classifications vary and there are some that have only three types.)
Is a moon a sphere?
The Moon is not quite a sphere, but it's fairly close.Moons in general range from nearly spherical to quite irregular.
