1 Name: Date: Class Period: Astronomy Test 2 Concept Review and Practice Gravity and Motion Skill: Describe how mass and weight would change (or not) going from one place in the universe to another. Practice: Please fill in the box with the best term from the Term Bank. Term Bank -Increased (Got Bigger) -Decreased (Got Smaller) -Stayed the Same -Was Impossible To Tell 1 a. You went from one place on Earth to another place on Earth. From one place on Earth to another place on Earth, YOUR mass: You From one place on Earth to another place on Earth, YOUR weight: 2 b. You went from the moon to the Saturn. THE MOON has LESS MASS than Saturn. From the moon to Saturn, YOUR mass: From the moon to Saturn, YOUR weight:
2 3 c. You went from sun to the Neptune. THE SUN has MORE MASS than Neptune. From the sun to the Neptune, YOUR mass: From the sun to the Neptune, YOUR weight: Skill: Determine how the strength of gravity is affected by mass and distance. Practice: Please fill in the box with the best term from the Term Bank. Term Bank -Got Stronger - Got Weaker -Was Impossible to Know -Stayed the Same Start 2m 2m The mass of each object decreased. m = mass End m?? m 4 The strength of the force of gravity between these objects:
3 Term Bank -Got Stronger - Got Weaker -Was Impossible to Know -Stayed the Same Start m m The distance between the objects decreased. m = mass m? End? m 5 The strength of the force of gravity between these objects: Start m m The mass of each object increased. m = mass End 2m?? 2m 6 The strength of the force of gravity between these objects:
4 Term Bank -Got Stronger - Got Weaker -Was Impossible to Know -Stayed the Same Start 2m 2m The distance between the objects increased. m = mass End 2m?? 2m 7 The strength of the force of gravity between these objects: 3m Start 3m The distance between the objects stayed the same. The mass of each object stayed the same. m = mass 3m? End? 3m 8 The strength of the force of gravity between these objects:
5 Skill: Describe an event using Newton s 1 st Law of Motion. Practice: Please write TRUE in the blank if the statement is true. Please write FALSE in the blank if the statement is false. A person is riding on a roller coaster. The roller coaster car is moving at a constant speed. A break is activated on the track. As a result, an unbalanced force is added to change the motion of the car; the car stops quickly. 9 When the car was moving, the person was at rest. 10 When the car hit the break on the track, an unbalanced force was added to the person, not to the car. 11 The person will keep moving toward the front of the car. Skill: Define key vocabulary. Practice: Please define the following words: Force: Gravity: Mass: Weight: Inertia: Newton s Law of Universal Gravitation: Newton s 1 st Law of Motion: 18
6 19 Skill: Show the 2 factors that combine to keep an object in orbit around another. Practice: Please draw the 2 factors that combine to keep the moon in orbit around the Earth. Key = Force of Gravity = Moon s Motion Without Gravity 20 Skill: Show the movement of an orbiting body if the object that it orbits around disappeared. Practice: Please draw the movement of the moon if the Earth disappeared. Key Motion
7 Moon Phases Skill: Determine the name of the moon phase given a picture of the view of the moon from Earth. Practice: Please write the moon phase name in the box. Term Bank -Full Moon -First Quarter -New Moon -Third Quarter -Waning Crescent -Waning Gibbous -Waxing Crescent -Waxing Gibbous
8 Skill: Draw the appearance of the moon given the name. Practice: Please draw each moon phase. Waning Crescent Third Quarter Waxing Gibbous Waxing Crescent Waning Gibbous
9 Skill: Determine the correct order of moon phases. Practice: Please draw the moon phases in the correct order based on the diagram. Diagram Eclipses Skill: Describe the order of the sun, Earth, and moon during a LUNAR eclipse. Practice: Please draw correct order of the sun, Earth, and moon during a LUNAR eclipse. Key 35 Lunar Eclipse Line-Up Earth Moon Sun
10 Skill: Describe the type of lunar eclipse based on the moon s path in space. Practice: Please write the type of lunar eclipse in each box. Term Bank -Partial -Penumbral -No Eclipse -Total Path of Moon Path of Moon Penumbra Umbra Penumbra Umbra Path of Moon Path of Moon Penumbra Umbra Penumbra Umbra 38 39
11 Skill: Describe the order of the sun, Earth, and moon during a SOLAR eclipse. Practice: Please draw correct order of the sun, Earth, and moon during a SOLAR eclipse. Key 40 Solar Eclipse Line-Up Earth Moon Sun Skill: Define key vocabulary. Practice: Please define the following words: Antumbra: Corona: Penumbra: Umbra: Skill: Describe in which part of the moon s shadow a person would stand to see each type of solar eclipse. Practice: Please write the part of the moon s shadow in which a person would stand to see each type of solar eclipse: Annular Solar Eclipse: 45 Partial Solar Eclipse: Total Solar Eclipse: 46 47
12 Skill: Show what each type of solar eclipse looks like in the sky. Practice: Please match the solar eclipse with what it looks like in the sky. Partial Solar Eclipse 48 A. Annular Solar Eclipse 49 B. Total Solar Eclipse 50 C. Skill: Determine the cause of lunar eclipse NOT taking place one time each month. Practice: Please write the correct cause in the box. 51 Cause Effect Sometimes the moon passes above the Earth s shadow, and sometimes the moon passes below the Earth s shadow. So, the moon does not always go through the Earth s shadow for a lunar eclipse to happen. Skill: Determine the cause of the moon appearing orange while completely inside of the Earth s umbra in a total lunar eclipse. Practice: Please write the correct cause in the box. 52 Cause Effect The moon reflects orange light while completely inside of the Earth s umbra during a total lunar eclipse.
