Early astronomers called this an "epicycle"; a whirling circle whose center was traveling in a larger circle. They used this to try to explain the observed motions of the planets, because Aristotle said that all motion in the heavens was circular, and so ellipses were right out!
What else can I help you with?
What is the furthest from the center?
The furthest point from the center is the circumference of the circle.
What is the shape of an rainbow?
A rainbow forms a circular arc in the sky, with its center located at the antisolar point, which is the point directly opposite to the sun. However, when viewed from the ground, only a portion of the arc is usually visible to the observer due to the horizon.
The shape of the orbit of each planet is a?
The shape of the orbit of each planet is an ellipse. An ellipse is a geometric shape that is like a flattened circle. The Sun is located at one of the foci of the ellipse, not at the center.
The set of all points in a plane that are the same distance from a fixed point?
This set of points forms a circle with the fixed point as its center.
Which force pulls objects in toward the center of a circle?
The centripetal force is responsible for pulling objects toward the center of a circle as they move in a curved path. This force acts perpendicular to the velocity of the object, keeping it on a circular trajectory.
The distince across a circle?
Diameter. distasnce from center to edge is radius length around is circumfrance
How do you measure circumfrance?
Formula to find the circumfrance of a circle~(2)(3.14)r or (3.14)d
What is a diamter?
it is the circumfrance of a circle divided by pi.
What is the radius of a circle if the circumfrance is 31.4?
If the circumference (not circumfrance) is 31.4, the radius is 4.9975 units (to 4 dp).
If the circumfrance of a circle is 16 pie what is the radius?
8
Circumfrance of a circle with a 20 foot radius?
125.6 feet
What is the diameter of a circle that has a circumfrance of 21.98m?
The diameter should be 7m.
What is the circumference of a circle if the radius is 4.4 cm?
Work it out the circumfrance of a circle is pie x the diameter!
What is the circumfrance of a circle with the radius of 5?
circumference = 2*pi*5
What is the difference between diameter and circumfrance?
Diameter is the distance across a circle. The circumference of a circle is the distance around the outside of the circle.
How do you find the circumfrance of a circle if you have the radius?
multiply the radius by two then pultiply that by pi
If a circle is 3.9 meters in diameter what is its circumfrance?
3.9 x 3.14 m
