Title: Draw a picture to answer the following: if you were on the Moon, the Earth would:


1
Draw a picture to answer the following if you
were on the Moon, the Earth would
  1. Show phases the same as the Moon (when the Earth
    sees a full Moon, the Moon sees a full Earth).
  2. Show phases opposite to the Moons (when the
    Earth sees a full Moon, the Moon sees a new
    Earth).
  3. Show no phases.

2
Consult your picture again to answer this If you
stayed at one location on the Moon, you would
probably see the Earth
  1. Rise and set every Earth day
  2. Rise and set every sidereal month
  3. Rise and set every synodic month
  4. Stay in the same location in the sky

3
Why have more people seen an eclipse of the Moon
than an eclipse of the Sun?
  1. Eclipses of the Sun occur much less often than
    eclipses of the Moon
  2. The shadow of the Moon is smaller than the shadow
    of the Earth
  3. Anyone on the night side of the Earth can see a
    total eclipse of the Moon

Which models predictions best fit the
observations of Venus (shown at top)?
  1. The Ptolemaic or Earth-centered view on the
    bottom left
  2. The Copernican or Sun-centered view on the bottom
    right

5
What causes the seasons?
  1. In summer, all of the Earth is closer to the Sun.
  2. In summer the tilt of the Earths axis makes the
    part of the Earth we are on closer to the Sun.
  3. In summer the Sun is up for more hours.
  4. In summer the Sun climbs higher in the sky so its
    rays hit the ground more directly.
