EARTH AND UNIVERSE
Earth and universe
ï‚›
ï‚›

What we know to be a star is a SUN
Planet Earth turns on itself to make 24 HRS
SEASONS
ï‚›

The seasons occur because the earth
have this thing called a tilt so when a
place on earth is closer to the sun it is
summer…when it is not close to the sun it
is winter
Earth and sun
ï‚› The

earth turns around the sun in 365 days
to make a year

SUN
GRVITATIONAL PULL
ï‚›

Gravitational Pull depends on MASS &
DISTANCE
MAIN POINTS ON PLANETS
They do not produce their own light
ï‚› Planets always orbit a sun
ï‚› A planet is always almost round
ï‚› Planets clear their surrounding orbit from
material
ï‚›
PLUTO ???
ï‚› Pluto

is not a planet because it has too
much material surrounding it and to be a
planet it needs to not have to much
material surrounding it.

PLUTO
LIGHT YEARS
ï‚›A

light year is the DISTANCE for LIGHT to
travel for 1 YEAR
light
Light travels 3 x 108 in one second
= 3 000 000 000
ï‚›

ï‚›

Therfore 1 light year = 9.4 x 1015m
On the move
AVERAGE SPEED
ï‚›

Total Speed division total time = Average
Speed
Acceleration
Change in speed in a certain time =
acceleration
ï‚› Difference in y/difference in x = gradient
ï‚› Difference in Velocity/Difference in time
=acceleration
ï‚› UNITS = m/s 2
ï‚›
Area under graph=Time taken
ï‚›

½ bxh
AREA UNDER VELOCITY TIME
GRAPHS = DISTANCE
TRAVELLED
THE 3 EQUATIONS OF MOTION
ï‚›
ï‚›
ï‚›

V= u+at
v2=u2+2as
s=ut+1/2at2
STOPPING DISTANCE
ï‚›

Stopping Distance = Braking Distance +
Thinking Distance
GRAVITY REVIEW
Isaac Newton discovered the
acceleration due to gravity
ï‚› The more the mass the more the gravity
ï‚› The gravity of earth is 9.81m/s2 but we
round it to 10 m/s2
ï‚›
NEWTON’S LAWS – ON THE
MOVE
1st law
ï‚›

If you throw something in vacuum the
object will keep the same speed and the
same direction
2nd law
ï‚› Force

is proportional to acceleration
ï‚› Therefore the more the force the more
the acceleration
3rd law
ï‚›

Forces interect with each other if for
example you are doing a downward
force on a chair the chair is doing an
upward force on you
