If Earth's mass was cut in half, what would happen to your mass?

nothing, mass is not affected by gravitational force

increase because gravitational force increases

decrease because gravitational force decreases

decrease because gravitational force increases

If Earth's mass was cut in half, what would happen to your weight?

decrease because gravitational force decreases

Increase because gravitational force increases

decrease because gravitational force increases

nothing, weight is not affected by gravitational force

What is true about the area between points A, B and the Sun, and the area between points H, I and the Sun?

The area between A, B and the Sun is the largest.

The area between H, I and the Sun is the largest

There is not enough information to determine the areas

Kepler's 2nd Law deals with

the speed/area the planet travels

the shape of the planets' orbits

the length of time it takes the planet to orbit the sun

Which of the following list the correct hierarchy in the Universe from biggest to smallest ? ¿Cuál de las siguientes enumera la jerarquía correcta en el Universo de mayor a menor ?

Universe, galaxies, solar system, stars and planets

Planets, stars, solar system, galaxies, universe

Solar system, galaxies, stars, planets, universe

Universe, solar system, galaxies, planets and stars

Astronomical units are used for....

Distances within a solar system

Distances between solar systems

An astronomical unit is...

The average distance between the Earth and the Sun

The average distance between the Sun and Neptune

The time it takes light to travel across our solar system

What's wrong with Han Solo's claim of making "the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs"

Parsec is a measure of distance, not time

Even the Millennium Falcon can't travel that fast

He should have used 'astronomical units'

He should have used 'light seconds'
