Planets A, B and C are identical. A and C have a giant moon orbiting them, while B has a lightweight artificial satellite orbiting it, as shown in the diagram. Which planet has the strongest gravitational interaction with its satellite?
Planet A, because its moon is heavy and close to it.
Planet B, because only a lightweight object can orbit without falling down.
Planet C, because it can interact with a heavy object that is far away.
All have the same gravitational attraction, because the planets are all the same mass.
According to Kepler's Second Law, the areas of triangle A and B are equal and took an equal amount of time to create. What must be true as a result?
The planet must travel at a constant speed throughout it's orbit
The planet traveled faster through triangle A than triangle B
The planet traveled faster through triangle B than triangle A
The planet moves faster when it's further away from the sun
The period is the length of time to complete one full cycle. What is the period of a planet around the sun?
The amount of times a planet orbits the sun in an Earth year
The number of times the planet rotates in an Earth year
The amount of distance a planet travels in an Earth year
The time it takes for the planet to complete its orbit
Each planet below has the same mass (M) and an identical rocket orbiting at a distance (D). The darker the planet, the denser the material. Which rocket experiences a stronger force of gravity?
A, higher density means stronger gravity when distance to center of the planet is the same.
B, smaller distance to the surface of the planet means stronger gravity when mass of the planet is the same.
Both the same, each planet has the same mass and the rocket is at the same distance from the center of the planet.
