Gravity and orbit Gravity
Is a force that attracts (pulls) objects towards one another. The more the mass the greater the pull The lesser the distance the greater the pull
7
Gravity and orbit Orbit
Is the path an object (planet/satellite) take around another object Objects orbit one another because of gravitational attraction (pull)
8
Gravity and orbit Newton’s First law of motion
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Also known as the Law of Inertia
9
Gravity and orbit Orbital Paths
Most planets follow an elliptical (oval) path. Very eccentric Mercury Was Pluto Less eccentric Venus Neptune

Phases of the moon
11
Phases of the moon Moon phases
The position of the Sun and moon make the different phases Waxing is increasing light on moon – toward full Waning is decreasing light on moon – toward new

Phases of the moon
13
Phases of the moon Why do we call it 1st or 3rd quarter when it is ‘half’ a moon that is visible? Because it is ¼ and ¾ of the 360 degree orbit.
