9. Newton’s First Law of Motion

10. Any two bodies in the universe attract each other with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between themforcedirectly proportional

11. Law of Universal Gravitation

12. What keeps the moon in orbit around the Earth?

13. Gravity and inertia

14. Which phase follows the New Moon?

15. Waxing Crescent

16. What term is used to describe the moon when it is decreasing in light?

17. waning

18. Which phase follows the 3 rd quarter?

19. Waning Crescent

20. How many days does it take the moon to complete all of its phases?

21. 29.5 days

22. Why do we always see the same side of the moon?

23. The rate of revolution and rotation of the moon is equal

24. What type of eclipse occurs when the moon is blocking sunlight from reaching the Earth?

25. Solar eclipse

26. Where would you have to be on Earth to experience a full solar eclipse?

27. Within the umbra

28. Where would you be if you were experiencing a partial solar eclipse?

29. Within the penumbra

30. Why are you more likely to experience a full lunar eclipse rather than a total solar eclipse?

31. The Earth is larger than the moon. The moon only blocks a small amount of light from reaching the Earth.

32. Why do we not experience a lunar eclipse each month?

33. The orbits of the moon and Earth are tilted

34. What type of tide does the diagram represent?

39. 1 or 3

40. What is wrong with the diagram below?

41. The high tide and low tide are reversed

42. Sketch an illustration of a lunar eclipse (include the Sun, moon, Earth, Penumbra, and Umbra)

43. I will check each sketch

44. Name two ways the gravitational pull between the moon and Earth could be decreased.

45. Increase the distance between them or decrease the mass of one of them.

46. How often do Neap Tides occur?

47. Twice a month

48. How many low tides does Coastal Carolina experience in a day?

49. 2

50. Why does the moon have a greater effect on ocean tides than the sun?

51. Even though the sun is much larger, the moon is much closer.

52. Why does the moon look red and orange during a lunar eclipse?

53. The Earth’s shadow filters the light
