What is Cartesian vortex?
Space and AstronomyA depiction of Rene Descartes’ vortices. In his theory, the entire universe was filled with elements of different sizes which shifted around each other. At the center is the sun, which is made up of the smallest kind of element and the bigger ones sift out and circle around it. Who proposed Cartesian vortex universe?
What is the smallest division on the meter stick scale?
Space and AstronomymillimeterMeter stick. That is, the millimeter is the smallest subdivision on the meter stick, which can be seen in Figure 1. This means the millimeter is the unit of the smallest reading that can be made without estimating. How do you find the smallest division on a scale? Video quote: And the fine lines divide
Are all circles concentric?
Space and AstronomyCircles, spheres, regular polyhedra, regular polygons are concentric as they share the same center point. In Euclidean Geometry, two circles that are concentric have the same center but always have different radii.…Concentric Circles. 1. What Are Concentric Circles? 4. FAQs on Concentric Circles Which circles are concentric circles? Concentric circles are circles with a common
Does dilation preserve orientation?
Space and AstronomyDILATIONS: ✓ Dilations are an enlargement / shrinking. ✓ Dilations multiply the distance from the point of projection (point of dilation) by the scale factor. ✓ Dilations are not isometric, and preserve orientation only if the scale factor is positive. Does dilation change orientation? Dilations. A dilation is a transformation which preserves the shape and
Why is the volume of a cone 1 3?
Space and AstronomyEach cone fills the cylinder to one-third quantity. Hence, such three cones will fill the cylinder. Thus, the volume of a cone is one-third of the volume of the cylinder. Is a cone 1/3 of a cylinder? Thus, the volume of a cone is equal to one-third of the volume of a cylinder having the
Which topology is used in peer to peer networks?
Space and AstronomyPeer-to-peer networks generally implement some form of virtual overlay network on top of the physical network topology, where the nodes in the overlay form a subset of the nodes in the physical network. Is peer-to-peer network is star topology? The switch acts as a central point through which all communications are passed. Large networks using
What makes up the solar system?
Space and AstronomyOur solar system is made up of a star—the Sun—eight planets, 146 moons, a bunch of comets, asteroids and space rocks, ice, and several dwarf planets, such as Pluto. The eight planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Mercury is closest to the Sun. Neptune is the farthest. What makes up
How big is the solar nebula?
Space and AstronomyHow big was the solar nebula? The nebular hypothesis says that the Solar System formed from the gravitational collapse of a fragment of a giant molecular cloud. The cloud was about 20 parsec (65 light years) across, while the fragments were roughly 1 parsec (three and a quarter light-years) across. Is the solar system bigger
How do you find the bending offset?
Space and AstronomyHow do you bend a 3/4 offset? Video quote: One thing you want to remember always keep the bend in front of you. So we're going to slide it forward we're going to rotate it 180 degrees we're going to put it back on the mark. How do you bend a 30 degree offset? Video
Is Waning gibbous a full moon?
Space and AstronomyThe Waning Gibbous phase is when the lit-up part of the Moon shrinks from 99.9% to 50.1%. It starts just after Full Moon and lasts until the Third Quarter Moon. Waning means that it is shrinking and getting smaller, while gibbous refers to the oval-to-round shape. What is a waning gibbous moon good for? Waning
