Newton's Laws
The tendency of an object to stay in its current state of motion is called
What is inertia?
The shape of earth's orbit around the sun
Elliptical
This force keeps the planets in orbit around the Sun
What is gravity?
A wave that propegates in the same direction of travel
Compressional Waves
The physical expression of a trait
Phenotype
What is the acceleration of an object that starts at 25m/s and, 5 seconds later, ends at 100 m/s
15 m/s/s
Starting at the New Moon, the fourth phase of the moon is called this
The full moon
The dividing line between the inner and outer planets
The asteroid belt
The distance from crest to crest on a wave
Wavelength
The slight trait differences in a species are called
Variations
F=MA
When the earth casts a shadow on the moon, it is called this
Lunar Eclipse
The outer planets are also called these due to their position and structure
What are the gas giants?
As wavelength decreases, what increases?
Frequency
A beneficial trait that helps a species survive and reproduce
adaptations
The 3rd law of motion states....
For every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force
When the earth, sun, and moon are all aligned, what is the name of the tide?
This phase of the star life cycle occurs when all of the Hydrogen has been fused into Helium
What is a red giant?
In order to see an object, light has to hit it and be ___________ from it to our eyes
Reflected
What happens to members of species that are best fit for their environment
They pass their beneficial genes/traits to their offspring at a higher rate
Two friends try and push a 50 kg crate from the same side to see how fast they can get it moving. Friend A pushes with 75 N of force and friend B pushes with 100N of force. Friction resists the motion with 25 N of force in the opposite direction.
What is the acceleration
3 m/s/s

Bonus: How is the sun hitting the earth during this time?
Winter
Least Direct Angle
The object absorbs the wavelengths of visible light that are not red.

Competition for resources. They best fit will eat!
