Test your understanding of planetary motion

by Xyza Palomata

What shape is a planet's orbit according to Kepler's first law?

A parabola

A perfect circle

An ellipse with the Sun at one focus

Kepler's second law states planets sweep out equal areas in equal what?

Time intervals

Orbital angles

Distance

Where is the Sun located in a planet's orbit per Kepler's first law?

At the center

At one focus of the ellipse

At a vertex of the ellipse

Kepler's third law relates the orbital period to what orbital element?

The semi-major axis

The eccentricity

The planet's speed

According to Kepler's second law, a planet moves fastest when it is:

Equally fast throughout

Farthest from the Sun

Closest to the Sun

If a planet's semi-major axis increases, what happens to its orbital period according to Kepler's third law?

The period decreases

The period increases

The period stays the same

Which data sources did Kepler use to formulate his laws?

Galileo's telescope notes

Tycho Brahe's precise observations

Newton's theoretical models

Kepler's third law can be written as P^2 ∝ a^3. What do P and a stand for?

P is orbital period, a is semi-major axis

P is velocity, a is orbit plane

P is distance, a is eccentricity

Are planetary orbits circular according to Kepler's laws?

Not generally; they are ellipses

They are parabolas

Yes, always perfect circles

In Kepler's orbital model, the Sun is at the focus of the ellipse, not the center. True or false?

True

Only for comets

False

You can integrate the game into an LMS compatible with LTI 1.1 or LTI 1.3 such as Canvas, Moodle, or Blackboard. This way, the scores will be automatically saved into the platform’s gradebook.
