historical development of the models of the universe from the time of Aristotle to the time of Newton. Aristotle: Geocentric model of the universe involved a series of 56 concentric spheres to which celestial objects were attached. The Earth was not in motion as the stars showed no measureable parallax. Each planet‚ the Sun‚ and the Moon were in their own sphere and the stars were positioned on a larger sphere surrounding all the others. Ptolemy: Geocentric model of the universe placed the Earth at

marble are shown below. Notice that the size of the vector remains the same but the direction is constantly changing. Because the direction is changing‚ there is a ∆v and ∆v = vf - vi ‚ and since velocity is changing‚ circular motion must also be accelerated motion. vi ∆v vf -vi vf2 If the ∆t in-between initial velocity and final velocity is small‚ the direction of ∆v is nearly radial (i.e. directed along the radius). As ∆t approaches 0‚ ∆v becomes exactly radial‚ or centripetal.
