S1w7 Astronomy FC Gravity, Review for session test

1

This week we have review our two quizzes, we review everything we have learned about gravity to date, dig into Newton's universal law of gravity. Watch this video on Newton's law of universal gravitation first.
Does this more or less jive with what we have talked about so far? how comfortable are you feeling about the equation

1

So the last video is the Ball-physics of understanding gravity. You will be expected to understand that for the take home test you are going to have next weekend. We aren't going into Einstein's general relativity, but we can go into a little bit of horse-physics. simply because it is fun.
thoughts?

From here on, we will be reviewing for the test that will be given as a take home between For which of the following examples would you count the all the zeros shown as a significant figures?

1

How many significant figures does each number have?

1

How many significant figures does the following addition problem have? 13.4+2.54

1

Measure the medal - What measurement should it be? See closeup, sorry its a little fuzzy.

1

How many significant figures does answer to the following multiplication problem have? 13.2 x 3.2

1

1 AU is the same as

1

Type your answer here

1

Greater than/ less than question: Order these numbers from least (1) to greatest (4)

1

Which of the following is not in scientific notation? check all that apply.

1

Why do stars never exhibit retrograde motion?

1

explain how stellar parallax argued against heliocentrism

1

Copernicus' calculations using heliocentrism still didn't predict where planets would be in their orbits compared to the geocentric models. What did he still not know that would have made a difference?

1

according to Kepler's second law,

1

Which of the following is a relative measure and which of the following an absolute measure? Remember a relative measure depends on the frame of reference of the viewer, an absolute measure does not, and it is the same no matter where or how fast the viewer is moving.

1

The farther a planet is from the sun, the orbital speed is

1

The force of gravity between two objects relies on which of the following factors, check all that apply

1

define tidal braking

1

define synchronous orbit

1

Using Kepler's second law, explain why comets are slow far from the sun, and fast near the sun.

1

Using Kepler's third law, explain what would happen if something managed to slow down a planet's orbit

1

How do you depict a negative vector?

1

Review all the other formatives. You should be able to see all the answers to all the questions (that have correct answers). Is there anything you want to go over in class?
