- Eratosthenes of Cyrene measured a solar shadow at about 7.2o from the perpendicular in a well at Alexandria, Egypt, but no solar shadow (0o from the perpendicular) in a well at Syene, Egypt, 490 miles to the south, at midday on the summer solstice. From these measurements, he was able to calculate: that the circumference of the Earth is about 73,500 miles that the circumference of the Earth is about 61,250 miles that the circumference of the Earth is about 49,000 miles that the circumference of the Earth is about 36,750 miles E. that the circumference of the Earth is about 24,500 milesarrow_forwardAccording to Aristotle’s rules, which of the following objects would be suitable for scientific inquiry? a brightly colored snake with one head B. a stationary object with a density of 0 grams/cm3 a moving object with infinite velocity a brightly colored snake with two heads a distant star that burns eternallyarrow_forwardWhich of the following is an example of qualitative data?(A) The fish swam in a zigzag motion.(B) The contents of the stomach are mixed every 20 seconds.(C) The temperature decreased from 20°C to 15°C.(D) The six pairs of robins hatched an average of three chicks eacharrow_forward
