Jj This is a hard choice to make because at the same time while we are drilling we are getting oil that is needed to other purposes but I do agree that we need to go green no matter what. I believe we need to look at both sides of the situation and find a solution that will help both parties out. I do agree that drilling oil is the way to go but we need to find alternative ways on drilling without harming the ozone layer and earth. By thinking of the fall backs of going green in drilling oil, we

Newton discovered other types of orbits that have circular of elliptical paths. However, if the velocity of an orbiting body were increased, its orbital path would change to a parabola or hyperbola and it would escape the gravitational pull of the sun. It would then leave the solar system. Parabolas are the orbital paths of objects in the form of an open curve. If one cuts out an angle in a circular cone, it would follow this path parallel to the sides of the cone. Hyperbolas occur when a plane

Start. Describe what you see in this simple sun-planet system. Specifically, what happens to the central object (the Sun)? Can you explain why the central object moves? HINT: Is gravitational attraction only the sun pulling on the planet? Does the planet orbit in a perfect circle? Is the sun at the center? In the simplest sun-planet system the Sun has a much larger mass (20X) than the planet. The planet is orbiting around the Sun in an elliptical orbit. The reason for this elliptical

out enjoying a beautiful sunny Los Angeles day you don’t realize that the same thing that you are enjoying is also hurting you. The sun is one of the largest bodies that produce radiation. Since it is so big and so powerful it produces a wide range of radiation. We have seen the effects of that when there are solar flares. This is an explosion on the surface of the sun so big that you can fit earth in it. The flare produces a large amount of radiation and some of that reaches us. When that happens

paper will cover three specific challenges to making direct measurements. One will be the Ptolemaic system, which states that the Earth was the center of the universe and was motionless. The next with be the Copernican system, which says that the Sun is the center of the universe. The last challenge will be the discussion on why the Earth is round. In the Ptolemaic system, the Earth is at a stand still in the center as the rest of the universe spins in a circular fashion around it. “The fixed

climate changes can be a result of changes in suns energy and shifting of the orbit of the earth. Essentially, the earth’s orbital tilt changes after 41,000 years and as a result causing significant changes to the earth’s climate. One such example would be the Sahara Desert, which was once very fertile grassland and now is a barren waste land, which can be attributable to the orbital tilt. The sun's energy output has also changed, evidenced by increase in sun spots. This has made a considerable impact

essays on astronomy. For example he was aware that the earth spins on its axis, and that it moves round the sun and the moon rotates round the earth. He discusses about the locations of the planets in relation to its movement around the sun. Aryabhatta refers to the light of the planets and the moon as reflections from the sun. He goes as far as to explain the eclipse of the moon and the sun, day and
