20.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. What have we learned? • In what ways do all humans use scientific thinking? – Scientific thinking involves the same type of trial and error thinking that we use in our everyday live, but in a carefully organized way. • How did astronomical observations benefit ancient societies? – Keeping track of time and seasons; navigation
21.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. What have we learned? • What did ancient civilizations achieve in astronomy? – To tell the time of day and year, to track cycles of the Moon, to observe planets and stars. Many ancient structures aided in astronomical observations.
22.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. 3.2 Ancient Greek Science • Why does modern science trace its roots to the Greeks? • How did the Greeks explain planetary motion? • How was Greek knowledge preserved through history? Our goals for learning:
23.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. Our mathematical and scientific heritage originated with the civilizations of the Middle East.
24.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. Artist’s reconstruction of the Library of Alexandria.
25.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. • Greeks were the first people known to make models of nature. • They tried to explain patterns in nature without resorting to myth or the supernatural. Greek geocentric model (c. 400 B.C.) Why does modern science trace its roots to the Greeks?
26.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. Special Topic: Eratosthenes Measures Earth (c. 240 B.C.) Calculate circumference of Earth: 7/360 (circum. Earth) = 5000 stadia circum. Earth = 5000 360/7 stadia ≈ 250,000 stadia Measurements: Syene to Alexandria distance ≈ 5000 stadia angle = 7° Compare to modern value (≈ 40,100 km): Greek stadium ≈ 1/6 km 250,000 stadia ≈ 42,000 km
27.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. Underpinnings of the Greek geocentric model: How did the Greeks explain planetary motion? • Earth at the center of the universe • Heavens must be “perfect”: Objects moving on perfect spheres or in perfect circles. Aristotle Plato
28.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. But this made it difficult to explain apparent retrograde motion of planets… Review: Over a period of 10 weeks, Mars appears to stop, back up, then go forward again.
29.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. The most sophisticated geocentric model was that of Ptolemy (A.D. 100-170) — the Ptolemaic model: • Sufficiently accurate to remain in use for 1,500 years. • Arabic translation of Ptolemy’s work named Almagest (“the greatest compilation”) Ptolemy
30.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. So how does the Ptolemaic model explain retrograde motion? Planets really do go backward in this model..
31.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. Thought Question Which of the following is NOT a fundamental difference between the geocentric and Sun-centered models of the solar system? A. Earth is stationary in the geocentric model but moves around Sun in Sun-centered model. B. Retrograde motion is real (planets really go backward) in geocentric model but only apparent (planets don’t really turn around) in Sun- centered model. C. Stellar parallax is expected in the Sun-centered model but not in the Earth-centered model. D. The geocentric model is useless for predicting planetary positions in the sky, while even the earliest Sun-centered models worked almost perfectly.

33.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. How was Greek knowledge preserved through history? • The Muslim world preserved and enhanced the knowledge they received from the Greeks. • Al-Mamun’s House of Wisdom in Baghdad was a great center of learning around A.D. 800. • With the fall of Constantinople (Istanbul) in 1453, Eastern scholars headed west to Europe, carrying knowledge that helped ignite the European Renaissance.
34.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. What have we learned? • Why does modern science trace its roots to the Greeks? – They developed models of nature and emphasized that the predictions of models should agree with observations. • How did the Greeks explain planetary motion? – The Ptolemaic model had each planet move on a small circle whose center moves around Earth on a larger circle.
35.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. What have we learned? • How was Greek knowledge preserved through history? – While Europe was in its Dark Ages, Islamic scientists preserved and extended Greek science, later helping to ignite the European Renaissance
36.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. 3.3 The Copernican Revolution • How did Copernicus, Tycho, and Kepler challenge the Earth-centered model? • What are Kepler’s three laws of planetary motion? • How did Galileo solidify the Copernican revolution? Our goals for learning:
37.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. How did Copernicus, Tycho, and Kepler challenge the Earth-centered model? Copernicus (1473-1543) • Proposed a Sun-centered model (published 1543) • Used model to determine layout of solar system (planetary distances in AU) But . . . • The model was no more accurate than the Ptolemaic model in predicting planetary positions, because it still used perfect circles.
38.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. Tycho Brahe (1546-1601) • Compiled the most accurate (one arcminute) naked eye measurements ever made of planetary positions. • Still could not detect stellar parallax, and thus still thought Earth must be at center of solar system (but recognized that other planets go around Sun). • Hired Kepler, who used Tycho’s observations to discover the truth about planetary motion.
39.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. • Kepler first tried to match Tycho’s observations with circular orbits • But an 8-arcminute discrepancy led him eventually to ellipses. “If I had believed that we could ignore these eight minutes [of arc], I would have patched up my hypothesis accordingly. But, since it was not permissible to ignore, those eight minutes pointed the road to a complete reformation in astronomy.” Johannes Kepler (1571-1630)

Education, Inc. Kepler’s First Law: The orbit of each planet around the Sun is an ellipse with the Sun at one focus. What are Kepler’s three laws of planetary motion?
43.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. Kepler’s Second Law: As a planet moves around its orbit, it sweeps out equal areas in equal times. This means that a planet travels faster when it is nearer to the Sun and slower when it is farther from the Sun.
44.

Education, Inc. A. 4 years B. 8 years C. 16 years D. 64 years We need to find p so that p2 = a3. Since a = 4, a3 = 43 = 64. Therefore, p = 8, p2 = 82 = 64. Thought Question An asteroid orbits the Sun at an average distance a = 4 AU. How long does it take to orbit the Sun?

Education, Inc. How did Galileo solidify the Copernican revolution? Galileo overcame major objections to the Copernican view. Three key objections rooted in Aristotelian view were: 1. Earth could not be moving because objects in air would be left behind. 2. Non-circular orbits are not “perfect” as heavens should be. 3. If Earth were really orbiting Sun, we’d detect stellar parallax.

Education, Inc. Galileo’s experiments showed that objects in air would stay with Earth as it moves. Overcoming the first objection (nature of motion): • Aristotle thought that all objects naturally come to rest. • Galileo showed that objects will stay in motion unless a force acts to slow them down (Newton’s first law of motion).

Education, Inc. Overcoming the second objection (heavenly perfection): • Tycho’s observations of comet and supernova already challenged this idea. • Using his telescope, Galileo saw: • Sunspots on Sun (“imperfections”) • Mountains and valleys on the Moon (proving it is not a perfect sphere)

Education, Inc. • Tycho thought he had measured stellar distances, so lack of parallax seemed to rule out an orbiting Earth. • Galileo showed stars must be much farther than Tycho thought — in part by using his telescope to see the Milky Way is countless individual stars. If stars were much farther away, then lack of detectable parallax was no longer so troubling. Overcoming the third objection (parallax):

Education, Inc. The Catholic Church ordered Galileo to recant his claim that Earth orbits the Sun in 1633. His book on the subject was removed from the Church’s index of banned books in 1824. Galileo was formally vindicated by the Church in 1992.

Education, Inc. What have we learned? • How did Copernicus, Tycho and Kepler challenge the Earth-centered idea? – Copernicus created a sun-centered model; Tycho provided the data needed to improve this model; Kepler found a model that fit Tycho’s data. • What are Kepler’s three laws of planetary motion? – 1. The orbit of each planet is an ellipse with the Sun at one focus. – 2. As a planet moves around its orbit it sweeps out equal areas in equal times. – 3. More distant planets orbit the Sun at slower average speeds: p2 = a3.

Education, Inc. How can we distinguish science from non-science? • Defining science can be surprisingly difficult. • Science from the Latin scientia, meaning “knowledge.” • But not all knowledge comes from science.

Education, Inc. The idealized scientific method • Based on proposing and testing hypotheses • hypothesis = educated guess
62.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. But science rarely proceeds in this idealized way. For example: • Sometimes we start by “just looking” then coming up with possible explanations. • Sometimes we follow our intuition rather than a particular line of evidence.

© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. Hallmark of Science: #2 Science progresses through the creation and testing of models of nature that explain the observations as simply as possible. (Simplicity = “Occam’s razor”)
65.
© 2010 Pearson
Education, Inc. Hallmark of Science: #3 A scientific model must make testable predictions about natural phenomena that would force us to revise or abandon the model if the predictions do not agree with observations.

Education, Inc. What is a scientific theory? • The word theory has a different meaning in science than in everyday life. • In science, a theory is NOT the same as a hypothesis, rather: • A scientific theory must: —Explain a wide variety of observations with a few simple principles, AND —Must be supported by a large, compelling body of evidence. —Must NOT have failed any crucial test of its validity.

Education, Inc. Thought Question Darwin’s theory of evolution meets all the criteria of a scientific theory. This means: A. Scientific opinion is about evenly split as to whether evolution really happened. B. Scientific opinion runs about 90% in favor of the theory of evolution and about 10% opposed. C. After more than 100 years of testing, Darwin’s theory stands stronger than ever, having successfully met every scientific challenge to its validity. D. There is no longer any doubt that the theory of evolution is absolutely true.
