Explain.
Distance: As distance increases, gravity
decreases.
11. Explain the difference between
rotation and revolution.
•When an object rotates, it spins.

365.25 days/1 year
b. What force keeps a planet revolving
around the sun?
gravity
15. Explain when solar noon occurs.
• When sun is at its highest point in the
sky.
16. How long dies it take the Earth to revolve
around the sun?
• 365.25 days/1 year
17. Explain the time it takes a planet to
revolve around the sun as the distance
between the sun and a planet increases.
• The farther away a planet is from the
sun, the longer it takes to revolve around
the sun.

24. If the Moon does not produce it’s own light, then
why does it light up the night sky?
•It reflects light from the Sun.
25. How long does it take the Moon to revolve once
around the Earth.
•27.3 days
26. How long does it take the Moon to rotate once.
•27.3 days
27. Why would you weigh less on the moon?
•There is less gravity on the Moon.
28. How much time passes between 1 new moon and
the next new moon?
•29.5 days OR 1 lunar month

36. What causes the tides?
•Gravity from the moon
37. How often do the tides change (high  low
tide)?
•6 hrs 15 min
38.
a. How many hours are between one low tide and next low tide?
• 12 hours
b. What is the height of the water at 4am?
• 8.5 ft
39. Explain what causes the Earth to
experience the different seasons?
•Earth’s tilt
•Earth’s revolution around the Sun
40. Why does Earth experience Winter?
•The Earth’s pole tilts away from the sun,
and part of it receives indirect light (colder)
and less daylight hours.
41. Why does Earth experience summer?
•The Earth’s pole tilts toward the sun, and
part of it receives direct light (warmer) and
more daylight hours.
42. What happens on Earth during the vernal
equinox and autumnal equinox?
• Every place on Earth receives 12 hours
daylight and 12 hours dark.
43. What happens to the number of daylight
hours during the summer as you move from the
equator to the North Pole?
• The number of daylight hours increases.
44.
a.

b. What season is occurring in the
Northern Hemisphere?
Summer Solstice (NP pointed towards sun)
45.
• Earth’s tilt
• Earth’s
revolution
a. State one reason that Earth has seasons.
around the sun.
b. If Earth is at position D, how much
time would it take to return to position D? • 365.25 days
c. Which season begins in the
Northern Hemisphere when Earth is at • Summer solstice
position A?
d. At what letter is the Earth at perihelion? • C

If it is 1pm in the Eastern time zone, what time
is it in the mountain time zone?
11am
52.
What type of eclipse is shown above?
Total Lunar eclipse (earth is between the sun and moon,
moon is completely in Earth’s shadow)
53.
What type of eclipse is shown above?
Solar eclipse (moon blocks the sun)
54. Explain how a lunar eclipse differs from a
solar eclipse?
•During a lunar eclipse, the moon passes
though Earth’s shadow because Earth is in
between the Sun and the Moon.
•During a solar eclipse, the Sun is blocked
by the moon.
55. Where must an observer be located in
order to see a total solar eclipse as well as a
total lunar eclipse?
•In the umbra (dark part of the shadow).
