Questions
How high are you jumping at two times Earth's mass compared to Earth's mass?
Half as high
Since the jump peak is half as excessive what does that inform us about gravity?
Twice as tons. (More gravity = lower bounce height)
Now we will change the mass to 0.5M. If we do, how a lot better are you leaping than at one
Earth mass?
Twice as high
Now we can alternate the mass to 0.25M. If we do, how plenty better are you leaping?
Four times as high
As the mass of the planet increases, the bounce top _______ via the equal thing as the mass.
Decreases
Let's keep the mass at Earth's mass but trade the radius to half of the radius of the earth. How a
good deal better do you soar?
One-zone as excessive
Let's maintain the mass at Earth's mass however exchange the radius to twice the radius of
earth. How excessive do you jump?
Four times as high
,Let's hold the mass at Earth's mass however alternate the radius to 3 instances the radius of the
earth. How excessive do you jump?
Nine instances as high
As the radius of the planet increases, the jump top _____ because the rectangular of the radius.
Increases
What is the connection among gravity, mass and radius?
G ∝ m/r^2
Experiment the use of Mars' and Earth's gravity to see what impact they've on gravity. What is
its floor gravity compared to Earth? (Mars has approximately 1/10 the mass and half the radius
of Earth)
zero.Four times
The Moon has approximately 1/a hundred the mass of Earth and approximately 1/four the
radius. What is the floor gravity of the Moon compared to earth?
16/100
Jupiter has approximately 300 times the mass of Earth and 10 times the radius. What is the
surface gravity of Jupiter compared to Earth?
3
Saturn has about one hundred instances the mass of Earth and 10 instances the radius. What is
the surface gravity of Saturn in comparison to Earth?
1
Notice that the moon in the panel at the top proper is 1/2 illuminated. Now, how plenty of the
TOTAL surface of the Moon is illuminated on this phase?
,50%
Now, how a lot of the TOTAL surface of the moon is illuminated within the Full Moon segment?
50% (moon is continually illuminated 50%)
What time is it for any observer on Earth once they see the full Moon growing?
6PM (Full Moon rises at sunset)
Sunset takes place 6 hours before the Full Moon transits. Now, while does the Full Moon set?
6AM (Full Moon sets at dawn)
When does the Waxing crescent section (overhead for the inexperienced observer in the photo)
RISE? Keep in thoughts that the Earth is rotating counter clockwise.
9AM
When does the Waning Gibbous phase SET?
9AM
What section have to the moon be in in order that an observer on Earth will see the Moon
overhead at 9AM?
Waning Cresent
Where on the sky does the Moon set?
West
Both the Moon and the Sun upward thrust and set for the same reason. It is due to:
the rotation of the Earth
, Sun is eclipsed whilst the Moon is New. That is the best way that is ought to block the Sun's
light. Is it daylight hours or middle of the night while this takes place?
Day
What phase is the Moon in all through a lunar eclipse?
Full
Is is sunlight hours or middle of the night when [the lunar eclipse] takes place?
Night
We do not see a solar eclipse from Earth each unmarried month. Oh, I see, the cause is that:
the Moon's orbit round Earth is honestly tipped about 5 stages to Earth's orbit across the Sun so
the Moon isn't always in the right plane for an eclipse to arise
The inclination [of Phobos] is:
About 1 degree
That means Phobos eclipses:
every orbit
The orbital yr [of Phobos] is:
approximately 8 hours
If Earth's Moon changed into Full on May 1, 2007. When turned into it subsequent inside the
First Quarter segment after this Full Moon?
May 22
