What is the main difference between the Ptolemaic system and the Copernican system?
The Ptolemaic system belived that the earth was the center of everything and all the planet and sun traveled around it and the copernican system belived that the sun was the center of everything and the planets and traveled around the sun.
What are the differences between the galilean and copernican theories?
Not much, both believed in heliocentrism. That planets revolve around the sun and not everything around the earth, which was the belief that many including the Catholic Church insisted on. Copernicus believed they travelled in circles, and later thanks to Kepler we know they are eliptical. Galileo never accepted this.
The main difference between the nebular and condensation theories is that the condensation theory stresses the importance of to the formation of planets.?
The main difference between the nebular and condensation theories is their emphasis on different aspects of planet formation. Nebular theory focuses on the collapse of a rotating nebula to form a star and planets, while condensation theory emphasizes the role of solid particles (dust and gas) in the early stages of planet formation.
How did Galileos observation of Jupiter and venus support Copernicus' model?
Galileo's discoveries with the telescope sowed doubts about the ancient Ptolemaic model which had the Earth at the centre. First, Jupiter's moons orbited round Jupiter and not the Earth, the first objects that had been discovered that were not orbiting the Earth. Secondly the discovery of the phases of Venus raised doubt about the Ptolemaic model, particularly the gibbous phase when, we now know, Venus is round behind the Sun as seen from Earth. In the Ptolemaic model Venus never goes behindthe Sun (as seen from Earth) and the gibbous phase cannot happen.By implying in the title of his book 'Dialogue of the two world systems' that there were only two models in contention, those of Ptolemy and Copernicus, Galielo insinuated that if the Ptolemaic model was incorrect the Copernican system must be correct. This was logically flawed because at the time there were two other systems in the public domain that both explained Venus's phases. These were the models of Tycho, which was geocentric, and finally Kepler's which was heliocentric.Of these four, Kepler's was eventually accepted by everyone after Newton's theoretical discoveries showed that Kepler's elliptical orbits for the planets agreed with the new theory of dynamics.
What were three of Tycho Brahe's reasons for believing his model was right?
Tycho Brahe produced a prodigious volume of measurements and observations, but he didn't fabricate or hypothesize any particular model, and didn't try to convince anybody of anything.
What is the difference between the Ptolemaic universe and the Copernican universe?
A Ptolemaic view of the Universe has the Earth at it's centre. The Copernican centres on the sun. Both however have been found to be incorrect.
What is the main difference between the Ptolemaic system and the Copernican system?
The Ptolemaic system belived that the earth was the center of everything and all the planet and sun traveled around it and the copernican system belived that the sun was the center of everything and the planets and traveled around the sun.
Thomas Kuhn's key examples involves the struggle between?
The Ptolemaic theory and the Copernican Theory.
What is the relationship between models and theories?
The difference between models and theories is nothing hahahahahaha loser go look in your book
Ptolemaic theory of the universe was disaproved by?
The Ptolemaic theory explained the way the planets moved among the stars. Other theories were produced between 1500 and 1700. After the discovery of the law of gravity and the laws of motion were discovered, the planetary theory devised by Johannes Kepler (1609) was found to fit the new theories most closely and it was adopted generally. It is still used.
The difference between dividend irrelevance theory and dividend relevance theory?
what are the difference between relevance and irrelevance theories of dividends
What is the difference between the Heliocentric theory and the Copernican theory?
The heliocentric 'theory' is not really a theory at all, more an assertion that the Sun is at the centre of the solar system. Copernicus's theory assumes that the Sun is at the centre and provides a model of the planets' orbits that uses circles and epicycles to explain the observed orbits. He said it was simpler than the old "geocentric" (Earth centred) Ptolemaic system, but it was not really, it actually had more epicycles. Note: Perhaps the questioner got mixed up. The Copernican theory IS a heliocentric theory. Perhaps the question is about the geocentric theory and the Copernican theory. Anyway, Kepler simplified the heliocentric theory and now we know that his model is correct.
Difference between grand and emergent theories?
grand theory originated in psychology while emergent theories focus on nurture.
How are Copernicus theory and Ptolemy theory have in common'?
Well copernicus s theory was the heliocentric theory which is that the sun is center and the planets and stars revolve around it ptomely s idea was the geocentric theory which is that the earth is center and other planets and stars revolve around the earth
What is the major difference between political theories?
The major difference between political theories lies in their beliefs about the role of government in society. Some theories advocate for a strong, centralized government that provides for the needs of its citizens, while others argue for limited government involvement and emphasize individual freedoms and rights.
What are the difference between scientific theories and scientific laws?
law is based on fact theory is a concept/idea
What caused Galileo to accept the theory that the planets revolve around the sun?
Amongst many other things, Galileo observed Venus in all four of its phases, crescent, waxing, waning, and full, as well as gibbous transitions between those phases. This proved the Copernican heliocentric viewpoint, making the Ptolemaic model untenable.
