Motion 🤑🤑
A measure of force acting upon an object
What is weight?
These rays have the shortest wavelength.
What are gamma rays?
This is the type of light that all objects with temperature generate.
What is thermal radiation?
These are the best conditions for observing the night sky on Earth.
What is calm, dark, high, and dry?
This is the correct term for a "twinkling" star
What is scintillation?
This is Newton's first law of motion in equation form.
What is Momentum = Mass x Velocity?
These waves pass through objects and Earth's atmosphere easily.
What are radio waves?
This kind of object does not transmit light.
What is an opaque object?
These telescopes use lenses and are outdated.
What are refracting telescopes?
This is abbreviated by CCD.
What is a Charged Coupled Device?
Force = Mass x Acceleration
What is Newton's 2nd law of motion?
This is the effect that demonstrates why closer objects appear more blue and more distant objects appear more red. (redshift + blueshift)
What is the Doppler Effect?
This is a measure of the amount of times a wave oscillates up and down
What is frequency?
This is what reflecting telescopes use to focus light.
What are mirrors?
This color has a wavelength of 660 nm
What is red?
This is what every force action has.
What is an equal and opposite reactionary force?
This is the relying factor for any object's thermal radiation spectrum.
What is its temperature?
These are the three basic types of spectra
What are emission line spectrum, continuous spectrum, and absorption line spectrum?
This is why larger telescopes can capture greater detailed images.
What is angular resolution?
You will not explode in space if you do these things.
What happens if you hold your breath and close your eyes?
Any change in velocity.
This is the average temperature of a human in Kelvin.
What is 310K?
These are what scientists are looking for when studying spectra interacting with celestial objects.
What are elements? (or atoms, presence of elements, atomic makeup of an object)
This needs to be larger for more light to be collected.
What is the light collecting area?
This is misspelled in Thomas Targett's 7th slide of his 8th lecture.
What is messenger? (mesenger)
