  2. tycho brahe collected extremely accurate ____ about planetary positions.
  3. johannes kepler used brahe’s data to formulate his three laws of planetary ____.
  4. one of kepler’s major discoveries was that planets move in ____ rather than perfect circles.
  5. the model in which earth is at the center of the universe is called the ____ model.
  6. the model in which the sun is near the center of the universe is called the ____ model.
  7. kepler’s work showed that planets move faster when they are ____ to t
  8. brahe’s detailed observations helped challenge the predictions made by the ____ model of the universe.
  9. galileo’s telescopic observations provided further support for the ____
  10. the work of copernicus, kepler, and galileo contributed to the developme

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  1. The Scientific Revolution replaced the geocentric model with a sun-centered one.
  2. Tycho Brahe's core contribution was precise observational data of planets.
  3. Kepler's laws describe the motion of planets around the Sun.
  4. Kepler's first law established planets move in elliptical orbits, not circles.
  5. The Earth-centered universe model is defined as geocentric.
  6. The Sun-centered universe model is defined as heliocentric.
  7. Kepler's second law states planets speed up when closer to the Sun.
  8. Brahe's observations contradicted the predictions of the geocentric (Ptolemaic) model.
  9. Galileo's telescopic evidence supported the heliocentric model.
  10. These three scientists advanced the heliocentric model, a key part of the Scientific Revolution.
