How did Nicolaus Copernicus come up with his ideas?
That the earth revolved around the sun, rather than the reverse. Copernicus was a catholic priest and at the time the church taught that the sun revolved around the earth. So to avoid controversy, he claimed that his idea was just to simplify a number of astronomical calculations. It was Galileo that established the heliocentric system and was forced to retract of be tortured.
What was gaileo's mechanistic concept of the universe?
Galileo's support for the heliocentric theory (note that this is Copernicus's theory, not Galileo's) got him into trouble with the Roman Catholic Church. In 1633 the Inquisition convicted him of heresy and forced him to recant (publicly withdraw) his support of Copernicus. They sentenced him to life imprisonment, but because of his advanced age allowed him serve his term under house arrest at his villa in Arcetri outside of Florence.AddendumHeliocentrism is the theory that the Sun is at the center of the Solar System as opposed to geocentrism, the Church supported theory which put the Earth at the center of the Solar System. Gravitation(improved)Galileo also added the study of Gravitation of twenty objects. One set of ten were the very light things and the other ten were the heavy pair. The people thought that the heavy pair would fall first but instead they fell at the same time!!! So this is the proof or that the gravity is even.
How the accomplishments of nicolaus Copernicus helped change European society?
Copernicus used early trigonometry to show that the observations of the movements of the planets in the sky are most easily explained by assuming that the Earth and other planets orbited around the Sun. He published this in 1543 in Poland. Copernicus also made contributions to Mathematics.It had previously been assumed that the Earth was the centre of the universe and that all other bodies revolved around the Earth. This appeared obvious to ancient astronomers since the heavenly bodies all rose in the East and set in the West. The planets (wanderers) altered their places in the sky relative to other bodies and this was explained by assuming that their motions executed circles within circles. However, in order to fit observations, this had to be carried to a ridiculous extreme.The theory that all other bodies revolved around the Earth had become part of religious dogma, so was vehemently opposed by the church.Copernicus's doctrine was opposed by the church for many years. In 1616 the Catholic church declared that it was contrary to the scriptures. Galileo had been a champion of Copernicus in Italy and was forced to recant and spent the rest of his life (1564-1642) under house arrest by order of the inquisition.He proposed a heliocentric system that Earth orbits the sun. apex cx
Global Marketing Success and Failure?
Success will come from understanding and conveying the corporate image in the manner compliant with the entity's intended region of operations culture. Culture is going to be the main factor for understanding the demographics of a region more appropriately. Each culture has a different set of standards for each different class of citizen, so understanding cultural values and differences will be the milestone for expanding into a global market. Not understanding or complying with cultural values will ultimately lead to failure and be a waste of investor and company funds.
