12
What is Kepler’s 1 st Law? Planets have elliptical or oval orbits. 9/25/2014created by: R.E. Angat12
13
Earth rotates from west to east 9/25/2014created by: R.E. Angat13
14
Imbalance on the distribution of lands. Earth's daily rotation at about 1,000 mph. This produces flattening at the poles and bulging at the equator. bulging flattening 9/25/2014created by: R.E. Angat14
15
Comparing Rotation and Precession ROTATION PRECESSION Spinning Earth spins. Earth’s axis spins. Day and night. Changes our North star. 24 hours 26,000 years 9/25/2014created by: R.E. Angat15
16
The barycenter of the Earth and moon is approximately found ___________ below the surface of Earth. a.1,710 mi. b.1,710 km. 1,710 km. 9/25/2014created by: R.E. Angat16
17
The barycenter is always nearer to the more massive object. The barycenter of the Earth and moon is approximately found 1710 mi. inside Earth. 9/25/2014created by: R.E. Angat17
18
What is Precession? Earth’s axis rotation Earth precessionnutation Remember: Earth’s axis is only an imaginary line. 9/25/2014created by: R.E. Angat18
19
What is the orbital tilt of Earth? Earth’s orbital tilt is 23.5 degrees. This tilt is responsible for the seasons on Earth. 9/25/2014created by: R.E. Angat19
20
What are the two factors that causes the precession of Earth? 1. Earth’s shape is oblate spheroid. The spinning motion of Earth causes it to bulge at the equator. 9/25/2014created by: R.E. Angat20
21
Uneven gravitational pull Precession happens because moon’s orbit is tilted from the Earth’s elliptical plane 9/25/2014created by: R.E. Angat21
22
Earth bulges at the equator. 9/25/2014created by: R.E. Angat22
23
What is our current North star? Earth’s current northern star is Polaris. Thousands of years from now it would be Deneb. Earth’s axis 9/25/2014created by: R.E. Angat23
24
What is our current North star? Precession changes our northern star. Earth’s axis 9/25/2014created by: R.E. Angat24

9. How are rocks recycled? Rocks are recycled when they are broken by weathering and/or melted by magma when they are buried deep underground. Depending on the process that happens next, a new rock is formed. 9/25/2014created by: R.E. Angat38
39
Rocks are classified on how they were formed and what type of minerals is present in them. 1. Igneous – melting and cooling. 2. Sedimentary- sedimentation, compaction, cementation, lithification. 3. Metamorphic – heat and pressure 10. How are rocks classified? 9/25/2014created by: R.E. Angat39
