Moon for $150A: The moon was formed when an object of this size collided with the Earth and the cloud of debris coalesced.

A: The diagram shown here depicts this phenomena.Moon for $250

(2 words!)WARNING:Ms. Minson is terrible at determining question difficulty. Therefore, an easy question could be worth $200 while a difficult question might be $100. You have been warned!

A: When a solar eclipse occurs, the moon is in this phase.Moon for $300

A: When a lunar eclipse occurs, the moon is in this phase.Moon for $300

Moon for $150A: The moon was formed when an object of this size collided with the Earth and the cloud of debris coalesced.

Q: What is Mars-sized?Clubs & Activities for $300

A: This club is advised by Mrs. DeLaPaz and Mrs. Burlinson and addresses environmental concerns on campus.

Tides for $150A: These are the two objects that work together to create a spring tide, a type of extreme tide on Earth.

Vocabulary for $150A: Kepler showed that Earths orbit is very, very close to being a perfect circle but it is not, instead forming this shape.

Period & Velocity for $200A: This is how long it takes a given object, like Mercury, to make one complete orbit around another object, like the sun. It is equal to a year.Make sure they give both, not just one.18

Tides for $200A: The most extreme tides in the world are found at this location.

________ of ________

Miscellaneous for $200A: When Los Gatos is experiencing winter, this hemisphere is tilted towards the sun.

Vocabulary for $150A: This nearby planet has clouds of sulfuric acid in its atmosphere and is very hot.

Period & Velocity for $300A: This is the planet with the shortest orbital period and the fastest orbital velocity.

Tides for $250A: Large tides are seen when the moon is in either of these two phases.

Miscellaneous for $200A: The Earth is tilted on its axis by 23.5. If the Earths tilt was 0, we would not experience this.

Vocabulary for $200A: This is a tool used for measuring the angle of the sun in the sky.

Period & Velocity for $300A: This is the planet with the longest orbital period and the slowest orbital velocity.

Tides for $250A: Despite differences in size, this is why the moon has a greater gravitational effect on the tides than the sun. Maybe make it 2 instead of 3?32

Miscellaneous for $250A: This is the order of the planets.

Vocabulary for $200A: Mars and Jupiter are separated in space by an area called this.

Period & Velocity for $300A: This is one complete spin or rotation of an object, like Earth, on its axis.

Ask to write on board.24

StarHFe Tides for $350A: When a neap tide is when the tides are less extreme than usual and occurs for this reason.

Make sure they get both.34

Miscellaneous for $150

A: Point A is located at this latitude and longitude.

Vocabulary for $200A: The distance between the sun and a planet is known by this geometry term, meaning half of a diameter.

54Final Jeopardy!

Tides for $250A: Large tides are seen when the moon is in either of these two phases.

Q: What are new moon and full moon?

Tides for $250A: Despite differences in size, this is why the moon has a greater gravitational effect on the tides than the sun.

Q: What is because the moon is closer?

Tides for $350A: When a neap tide is when the tides are less extreme than usual and occurs for this reason.

Q: What is the gravitational pull of the sun and moon working against each other?

Make sure they get both.35

Miscellaneous for $150A: Our solar system formed from this, NOT during the Big Bang.

Q: What is a nebula, or cloud of dust?

37

Miscellaneous for $200A: When Los Gatos is experiencing winter, this hemisphere is tilted towards the sun.

Q: What is the Southern Hemisphere?

Miscellaneous for $200A: The Earth is tilted on its axis by 23.5. If the Earths tilt was 0, we would not experience this.

Q: What are seasons?

Miscellaneous for $250A: This is the order of the planets.

Q: What is Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.

Miscellaneous for $150A: Point A is located at this latitude and longitude.

Q: What is 180E, 75N.

Vocabulary for $150A: Kepler showed that Earths orbit is very, very close to being a perfect circle but it is not, instead forming this shape.

Q: What is an ellipse?

Vocabulary for $150A: This nearby planet has clouds of sulfuric acid in its atmosphere and is very hot.

Q: What is Venus?

Vocabulary for $200A: This is a tool used for measuring the angle of the sun in the sky.

Q: What is a gnomon?

Vocabulary for $200A: Mars and Jupiter are separated in space by an area called this.

Q: What is an asteroid belt?

Vocabulary for $200A: The distance between the sun and a planet is known by this geometry term, meaning half of a diameter.
