Predict the pattern of the light that will appear on each sheet of paper when the flashlight is turned on.
The pattern that will appear on both pieces of paper is the same - a circle of light.
The pattern on the papers will change because the light will fluctuate.

NASA has been sending exploration missions to Mars for almost 50 years. The length of time it has taken the different spacecraft to reach Mars ranges from 150 days to 360 days. In order to make it possible for humans to travel to Mars. the travel time must be reduced. Assume the different spacecraft were using the same amount of fuel at the same rate. Why are there such long differences in travel time?
The distance of Mars from the Sun changes.
The distance from Earth to Mars changes.
The position of Earth from the Sun changes.
The shape of the planet's orbit changes.
The chart below shows the surface temperatures of the outer planets.
The chart below shows the surface temperatures of the outer planets.
Neptune were closer to the Sun, it would be cooler.
Saturn is closer to the Sun than any of the other outer planets.
The coldest planet is Uranus.
The surface temperature of Earth is between that of Neptune and Jupiter.
Biologists report that habitat destruction, and overexploitation. and pollution is eliminating species at a rate comparable to the great extinction that marked the end of the age of dinosaurs. The UN Environment Programme reports that. over the past century, more than 800 species have disappeared and at least 10,000 species are now considered threatened This Includes abou1 half of all primates and around 10 per cent or all plant species. At least half of the forests existing before the introduction of agriculture have been cleared. and much of the diverse "old growth" on which many species depend for habitat is rapidly being cut and replaced by ecologically impoverished forest plantations.
Which statement is a logical conclusion that can be drawn from Information In the text?
Clean technology has helped eliminate pollution and protect endangered species.
Natural resources are limited, and the biosphere has limited capacity to provide our food and water.
Consuming forest resources interferes with the survival of other species.
"Old-growth" forests supply food, energy, and other resources humans depend on.
Only a small percentage of Americans owned cars before the 1940s. By 2017, there were nearly 250 million vehicles for 323 million people, significantly increasing the need for roadways. In 1960. the United States had about 16,000 km of interstate highways. Today. the interstate highway system includes 77,000 km of paved roads. What per cent increase does this represent?
381 percent
792 percent
38 percent
79 percent
What is occurring in this figure?
lunar eclipse
lunar and solar eclipse
partial lunar eclipse
solar eclipse
Why would someone in North America not be able to view this eclipse?
Because this is a lunar eclipse and Earth casts a very small shadow.
Because this is a lunar eclipse and North America is experiencing day.
Because this is a solar eclipse and North America is experiencing night.
Because this is a solar eclipse and the Moon casts a very small shadow.
Where do you have to be located to be able to see a total eclipse?
Anywhere on the continent where the eclipse is occuring
within the penumbra
within the penumbra and umbra
within the umbra
It was once thought that Earth was the center of the universe. Eventually, it was proven that the planets orbit around the Sun. The illustration shows the path of Earth's orbit around the Sun.
Describe the path of Earth if the Sun's gravity were to suddenly stop.
Earth would continue to move within its orbit.
Earth would move in a straight line towards the Sun.
Earth would move in a stra ight line instead of a curved line.
Earth would stop moving and become suspended in one spot.
Halley's Comet orbits the Sun and can be seen from Earth about every 76 years. However,before the work of Sir Isaac Newton and Edmond Halley, comets were thought to pass in a straight line through the solar system. In 1705. Edmond Halley used Newton's laws to determine the gravitational effects of Jupiter and Saturn on a comet that he observed in 1682. Using this information and historical records, he determined that comets seen in 1531 and 1607 were the same comet. Halley correctly calculated the orbit of the comet and predicted its return in 1758. Newton's laws state that all objects exert gravitationa l force and that objects with more mass exert more force. Which system of objects has the g·eatest effect on the orbit of Halley's comet?
Earth, the Sun, and the Moon
the Sun, Jupiter, and Saturn
asteroids, meteoroids and dwarf planets
