Geocentric System
• In a geocentric system, Earth is at the center of the revolving planets and stars.

Ptolemy’s Model
• 140 AD• Geocentric model• Thought plants moved on small circles that
move on bigger circles

Heliocentric System
• In a heliocentric system, Earth and the other planets revolve around the sun.

Copernicus
• 1542• Worked out the arrangement of the known
planets and how they move around the sun
![Page 14: Notes 14-1 Observing the solar system. Chapter Preview Questions 1.What is the sun and where is it within the solar system? a. a planet; at the center.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649dd35503460f94ac9e6f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Galileo
• 1600s• Used a newly invented telescope to make
discoveries that support the heliocentric model.
![Page 15: Notes 14-1 Observing the solar system. Chapter Preview Questions 1.What is the sun and where is it within the solar system? a. a planet; at the center.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649dd35503460f94ac9e6f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Tycho Brahe
• Late 1500’s• Made observations about the positions of the
planets without using a telescope
![Page 16: Notes 14-1 Observing the solar system. Chapter Preview Questions 1.What is the sun and where is it within the solar system? a. a planet; at the center.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649dd35503460f94ac9e6f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Kepler
• Used Tycho Brahe’s data to develop 3 laws that describe the motions of the planets
• 1) The orbit of each planet is an ellipse (elongated circle)
• 2) Planets move faster when close to sun, and slower when further from sun
• 3) Planets that are closer to the sun orbit the sun faster

Elliptical Orbit

The solar system
• In Galileo’s time, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn were discovered
• Since then, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, moons, etc. have been discovered
• Today, we know that the solar system consists of the sun, the planets, their moons, and other small objects that orbit the sun

Measuring Distances in Solar System
• Unit = Astronomical Unit (AU)• 1 AU = ~150 million km (distance = Earth’s
average distance from sun)
![Page 20: Notes 14-1 Observing the solar system. Chapter Preview Questions 1.What is the sun and where is it within the solar system? a. a planet; at the center.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649dd35503460f94ac9e6f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The Sun and Planets• Shown below are the average
distances of each planet from the sun.

Exploring solar system
• Telescopes on Earth and in space• Astronauts to moon/ space• Moons and planets do not produce their own
light, but rather they reflect the sun’s light
![Page 22: Notes 14-1 Observing the solar system. Chapter Preview Questions 1.What is the sun and where is it within the solar system? a. a planet; at the center.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649dd35503460f94ac9e6f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Planet Speed Versus Distance• Johannes Kepler
discovered a relationship between the speed of a planet and its distance from the sun. Use the graph to discover what Kepler learned.
![Page 23: Notes 14-1 Observing the solar system. Chapter Preview Questions 1.What is the sun and where is it within the solar system? a. a planet; at the center.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649dd35503460f94ac9e6f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Planet Speed Versus Distance
– About 30 km/s
• Reading Graphs:
– According to the graph, what is Earth’s average speed?
![Page 24: Notes 14-1 Observing the solar system. Chapter Preview Questions 1.What is the sun and where is it within the solar system? a. a planet; at the center.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649dd35503460f94ac9e6f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Planet Speed Versus Distance
– Mercury; Mercury
• Interpreting Data:
– Which is closer to the sun, Mercury or Mars? Which moves faster?
![Page 25: Notes 14-1 Observing the solar system. Chapter Preview Questions 1.What is the sun and where is it within the solar system? a. a planet; at the center.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649dd35503460f94ac9e6f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Planet Speed Versus Distance
– Planets that are closer to the sun move faster.
• Drawing Conclusions:
– What is the general relationship between a planet’s speed and its average distance from the sun?
![Page 26: Notes 14-1 Observing the solar system. Chapter Preview Questions 1.What is the sun and where is it within the solar system? a. a planet; at the center.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649dd35503460f94ac9e6f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Planet Speed Versus Distance
– Uranus’s speed is less than that of Jupiter because Uranus is farther from the sun than Jupiter.
• Predicting:
– The planet Uranus is about 2,900 million km from the sun. Predict whether its speed is greater or less than Jupiter's speed. Explain your answer.
