Question

question 6 1 pts what feature of aristotles model of the universe was included in the model proposed by copernicus? mars, jupiter, and saturn move around the earth elliptical orbits uniform circular motion earth is stationary and at the center mercury and venus move around the sun

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Aristotle's model had celestial bodies moving in uniform circular motion. Copernicus also initially assumed uniform circular motion in his heliocentric model before the discovery of elliptical orbits by Kepler. Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn moving around Earth, Earth being stationary at the center are geocentric - Aristotelian ideas not in Copernicus' model. Elliptical orbits were not part of either Aristotle's or Copernicus' initial models. Mercury and Venus moving around the Sun is a feature unique to Copernicus' heliocentric model and not from Aristotle.

Answer:

C. uniform circular motion
