70. Kavita's class is studying the phases of the moon Which choice shows the correct sequence of the phases of the moon? (SC.8.E.5.9) 71. As planets solidify after their initial formation, they give off gases. If they have a strong enough gravitational field, they may hold onto some gases and form an atmosphere. Generally, the stronger the gravity, the thicker the atmosphere. MASSES OF SOME PLANETS Mass (kg) 3.30 x 1023 5.97 x 1024 Planet 5.68 x 1026 8.68 x 1025 Y. Which of the following planets should have the thickest atmosphere? (SC.8.E.5.4) a. W b. X c. Y d. Z 72. Imagine a metamorphic rock that has been subjected to intense heat and pressure. Over time, it gets pulled underground as part of a tectonic plate that is sinking beneath another plate along a convergent boundary. The rock melts as it goes deeper; then the molten rock rises up and seeps out of a crack in the ocean floor and hardens. What type of rock is it now? (SC.7.E.6.2) clastic b igneous C. metamorphic d. sedimentary a. Eduardo looks at stars through his telescope. He says that the star Sirius is brighter than the star Rigel. In reality, Rigel has a greater absolute brightness than Sirius. What can explain Eduardo's observation? (SC.8.E.5.5) a. Sirius is much closer to Earth than Rigel. b. Rigel is much closer to the Erath than Sirius. C. Sirius is a hotter star than Rigel. d. Rigel is a hotter star than Sirius. stances among planets and stars are too large to be expressed in everyday distance units. nich of the following units would most likely be used when measuring distances between nets? (SC.8.E.5.1) a. Year b. Light-year C. Kilometer . Astronomical units
