THE VIOLENT UNIVERSE TEST
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Does a Pendulum In motion experience an Acceleration? - ANSWER yes it
does experience acceleration on it's descent from it's high points.
How does the force of gravity depend on mass and distance? - ANSWER The
more mass something has, the more gravity it has as well. However greater the
distance between two objects. The less gravitational pull they will have.
What is the difference between momentum and angular momentum? -
ANSWER Angular momentum pertains to circular motion and it relies on a
radius
What are Newton's 3 laws of motion? - ANSWER Inertia, acceleration, action -
reaction
Whats another example of Newton's third law? - ANSWER A rocket going into
space.
If the Moon were more massive, what effect would that have on the tides on
earth? - ANSWER Tides would be more massive. There would also be a
increase in flooding.
How long would It take for us to find out a star has been born if it was 10 light
years away? - ANSWER 10 years (the amount of light years away + the time it
takes for us to see the event)
What is a Solar System? - ANSWER a star with orbiting planets
What is a Galaxy? - ANSWER stars, dust, and gas bound together by gravity
