Astronomy Chapter 1
The moon is Earth's natural one of these
What is a satellite?
Unit used to measure distances between planets.
What is motion?
The highest point on a transverse wave
What is the crest?
What is intensity?
This person came up with the law of universal gravitation.
Who is Isaac Newton
What is it shares its orbit with other objects?
An object in motion stays in motion and an object at rest stays at rest unless acted on by and outside force.
What is Newton's first law of motion?
The distance from one crest to another
What is wavelength?
The pitch of a sound depends on
What is the frequency?
These two forces keep planets orbitting.
Gravity and Inertia
The innermost part of the sun
What is the Core?
The variable that is changed on purpose in an experiment.
What is the independent variable?
The parts of a longitudinal wave that are spread apart
What are rarefactions?
The pitch of a moving object changes as it passes by an observer.
What is the Doppler Effect?
What are asteroids
The qualifications of a planet
What are round, orbit the sun, and clear orbit?
What is kinetic energy?
How many waves pass a point in a given amount of time.
What is frequency?
The factors that affect the speed of sound
What are dry, airless, less gravity, craters, marias, highlands, great temperature differences?
The location of the oort cloud
The first step of the scientific method.
What is asking a question?
The action of a wave that cannot pass through an object
What is reflection
The factors that affect the loudness of a sound
What is energy and intensity
