Multiple Choice

The universe is.....

• all matter and all forms of energy and space.

• hydrogen and helium held together by gravity

• a particle of energy created by nuclear fusion in the core of the sun

• 4.6 billion years ago there was a cloud of dust and gas

Multiple Choice

Example of a dwarf planet

• The Sun

• Neptune

• Mars

• Pluto

Multiple Select

3 Reasons for the Seasons

• 2. Earth revolves around the sun.

• 1. The seasons are caused by the tilt of the Earth.

• 3. The tilt of earth’s axis as it revlves causes the energy of the sun to hit 3Earth at differnt angles. This reslts in areas getting direct and indirect energy of the sun.

• 1. Because the Earth is closer to the sun and that makes summer and if it is far it is winter

• 2. Beacause of the gravity

Multiple Choice

Charateristics of planets

• has removed debris and small objects from the area around its orbit

• not a satellite (moon) of another object

• has enough mass to be round or nearly round

• orbits the sun

• All of the Above

It's going to be harder. Are you ready?

Multiple Choice

What moon phase is this?

• Waxing crecent

• New moon

• Waning crecent

• Waxing gibbous

Multiple Choice

Why don't we see solar and lunar eclipses during every lunar cycle?

• The moon's path around Earth is tilted (the plane of the orbit is a difference of about 5 degrees) compared to Earth's orbit around the sun. The only time the eclipses occur is when the sun, Earth and moon line up.

• It's because the moon is smaller than the Earth

• The moon revolves around Earth. Because of the revolution we see the moon from different angles. The sun's light reflects off the surface of the moon.

• when one object in space blocks an observer from seeing another object in space

Multiple Choice

Why do we see moon phases?

• The moon revolves around Earth. Because of the revolution we see the moon from different angles. The sun's light reflects off the surface of the moon.

• The moon's path around Earth is tilted (the plane of the orbit is a difference of about 5 degrees) compared to Earth's orbit around the sun. The only time the eclipses occur is when the sun, Earth and moon line up.

Multiple Choice

Phase of the moon when a crescent of sunlight is reflected on the right side of the moon

• Waxing Crescent

• Waning Cresent

Multiple Choice

Angle of the sun in the winter

• lower angle that causes indirect sunlight; the sun's energy is focused with smaller area; hotter

• 
  high angle closer to 90 degrees that causes direct sunlight; the sun's energy is focused with smaller area; hotter

• lower angle that causes indirect sunlight; the sun's energy spread out with larger area; colder

• high angle that causes direct sunlight; the sun's energy spread out with larger area; colder
