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

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?

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

Why do stars never exhibit retrograde motion?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
17.

explain how stellar parallax argued against heliocentrism

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
18.

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?

according to Kepler's second law,

20.

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.

Absolute

relative

position of an object

distance between two objects

angular distance

angular diameter

linear distance

linear diameter

velocity

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?
