    Earth's orbital radius is 1.5 x 10^11 m and it orbits the Sun in 1 year. If Mercury's orbital radius is 5.79 x 10^10 m, calculate the time taken for it to orbit the Sun.Radius orbit Bumi ialah 1.5 x 10^11 m dan Bumi mengelilingi Matahari dalam tempoh 1 tahun. Jika radius orbit Utarid ialah 5.79 x 10^10 m, kira masa yang diambil untuk mengorbit Matahari.

  • 0.240 years

    Consider the model of Kepler's 2nd Law. Each colored wedge represents the same time interval. Kepler states that the area of each wedge must be equal. According to this, what conclusions can you draw about the movement of any planet?

  • An orbiting body travels faster as it gets closer to the central massive body.
  • An orbiting body covers the same distance for each time interval because the speed changes.

  • 6. 
    Consider the law of gravitational attraction. Two spheres with a mass, M, are attracted to each other by a force, F. If the distance between the two spheres doubles while the masses remain constant, will the force between the two spheres change? If yes, how?

  • Yes, the forces decreases by 1/16
  • Yes, the force decreases by 1/4

  • 7. 
    Which diagram shows a planet with the least eccentric orbit?

  • 1
  • 2
  • 3
  • 4

  • 8. 
    In order for a satellite to orbit in a higher orbit, what must be true about its speed

  • The orbital speed must be decreased
  • The orbital speed must remain the same

  • 9. 
    At position A, which hemisphere would have summer?

  • Northern hemisphere
  • Southern hemisphere

  • 10. 
    Types of celestial coordinate system

  • Latitude and longitude
  • Ecuatorial and horizontal
  • None

  • 11. 
    The angle between the orbital plane of the solar system and the actual orbit of an object around the sun

  • obliquity
  • precessoin
  • inclination
  • eccentricity

  • 12. 
    Which of Kepler's Laws is illustrated here?

  • 1st Law
  • 3rd Law

  • 13. 
    Kepler’s 3rd law states the square of the orbital period is proportional to the cube of the orbital radius. (T2=r3)If a planet's orbital radius is doubled, what happens to the length of a year on that planet?

  • It will become twice as long
  • It will become about 8 times as long
  • It will remain the same

  • 14. 
    The motion where the Earth's axis tilt traces a cone pattern once every 26,000 years is called

  • rotation
  • revolution
  • precession
  • nutation

  • Imagine
  • Radius vector

  • 16. 
    What is the second law of Kepler ?

  • All planets move around the Sun in elliptical orbits, with the Sun as one focus of the ellipse.
  • The square of the period of any planet is proportional to the cube of the semimajor axis of its orbit.
  • The radius vector of a planet sweeps over in equal areas in equal intervals of time.
  • None of these

  • 17.
