Tycho Brahe and Kepler
The reason scientist no longer
accept the Ptolemaic model is
due to the work of
$400
Orbits of planets are circular
Ptlomey and Copernicus
Incorrectly agreed that
$600
Venus and Mercury
A fatal flaw of Ptolemy’s
model is it’s inability to
predict the phases of
$800
Aristarchus
The heliocentric model was
actually first proposed by:
$1000
Ptolemy used epicycles for Venus to explain the earth
centered universe, which could not explain why we see
a full Venus phase. Galileo observe that Venus goes
through a full Venus cycle and therefor the sun must be
in the center
How did Galileo’s observations
of Venus disprove Ptolemy?
$200
Copernicus
Who did Kepler correct by
describing orbits as elliptical
rather than circular?
$400
The moon orbiting the Earth
What celestial relationship is
the same in both the
heliocentric and geocentric
models?
$600
Brahe
Whose detailed observations
led to Kepler’s Laws
$800
Show me your answers
Name three differences between
the geocentric and heliocentric
models
$1000
The Earth moves faster than these outer
world, so we overtake them and as we
sweep past them they appear to go
westward for a few weeks
Explain how Copernicus
accounts for the retrograde
loops of the superior planets
$200
Overcome the gravitational pull of an object
Escape velocity is the speed
required to
$400
One fourth as great
If the distance between two
asteroids is doubled, the
gravitational force they exert
on each other will be
$600
The mean distance between the Earth and
Sun?
What is an Astronomical
Unit?
$800
Decrease by a factor of 9
If the Moon was three times
further from Earth, the force
by Earth on the Moon would
$1000
The higher the eccentricity the more elongated
the oval, a circle has an eccentricity of zero
Explain how eccentricity
describes the shape of an
ellipse

Jupiter
Galileo’s discovery of four
moons orbiting ________
helped support the ideas of
Copernicus
$400
He laid out the order and relative motion on
the known solar system
What contribution did
Copernicus make that helped
Galileo in his observations?
$600
Sunspots which rotated across the sun’s face
What did Galileo discover
when looking at the sun?
$800
Sunspots, Venus phase cycle Four moons
around Jupiter Craters and mare on the Moon
What are three things Galileo discovered through his
telescope?
$1000
Galileo found Venus went through an entire
phase cycle which could only happen in the
Copernican model
How did Galileo’s
observations of Venus
disprove the Ptolemaic
model?
$200
Kepler
Whose laws described
Planetary motion
$400
The orbits of the planets are ellipses with
one focus at the sun.
What point do Copernicus
and Kepler disagree?
$600
Proportional to the cube of its semi-major
axis
According to Kepler’s third
law, the square of the planet’s
period in years is
$800
Planets further from the sun orbit at a
slower speed than those closer
What does Kepler’s third law
imply about planetary
motion?
$1000
In equal amounts of time, the lines that connect
each planet to the sun must sweep out in equal
areas. The longer the arc, the faster the planet
must move. The further the line from the sun the
slower a planet moves. Planets in perihelion will
speed up and in aphelion they will slow down.
Relate Keplar’s Second Law
to the speed of planets
$200
Newton
The Law of Universal
Gravitation was developed by
$400
smaller
According to Newton’s
second law, when the same
force acts on two bodies, the
body with the larger mass
will have the
_______acceleration
$600
sun
According to Newton, the
gravity of the _______ is
needed to explain planetary
orbits.
$800
That objects have mass that disrupt the space around
them –curving space and other objects towards that
object.
What did Einstein have to say
about Gravity?
$1000
The third law says they each have the same
gravitational pull, butJupiter is more
massive than a Voyager, which the second
law allows Jupiter to slow a bit and the
Voyager to accelerate allow them to escape
the gravitational pull of the sun.
Using Newton’s second and third law
explain why the Voyager probes able
to pull away from Jupiter and yet
Jupiter still orbits around the sun
