Tides Definition Force that causes tides Where low tide occurs I found this on page. NGSSS Check Why is the Sun s effect on tides less than the Moon s effect? SC.8.E.5.9 Where high tide occurs How often high tide occurs Compare spring tides and neap tides. Draw the position of the Moon, the Sun, and Earth during a spring tide and a neap tide. Spring Moon phases during which they occur: Types of Tides Neap Moon phases during which they occur: Suppose that the Moon were smaller in size but greater in mass than it is now. How would that affect solar eclipses and tides? Study Guide Chapter Review Benchmark Practice The Sun-Earth-Moon System 47
4 Review The Sun-Earth-Moon System Chapter Wrap-Up Now that you have read the chapter, think about what you have learned. Use this checklist to help you study. Complete your Foldables Chapter Project. Study this chapter in your Notebook. Study the definitions of vocabulary words. Reread the chapter, and review the charts, graphs, and illustrations. Review the Understanding Key Concepts at the end of each lesson. Look over the Chapter Review at the end of the chapter. THINK ABOUT IT! Summarize It Reread the Think About It question and the lesson Key Concepts. Draw the Earth-Moon-Sun system in the space below. Use arrows to show the rotation and revolution of Earth and the Moon. On the lines below your drawing, describe a cycle that is caused by the motions of Earth and the Moon. Benchmark Practice Chapter Review Study Guide Challenge Work with a partner to create a moving model of the Sun-Earth-Moon system. Use your model to demonstrate tides, phases of the Moon, seasons, and other cycles caused by motions of Earth around the Sun and the Moon around Earth. 48 The Sun-Earth-Moon System
5 5 Earth in Space and Time Phases of the Moon SC.8.N.1.1, SC.8.E.5.9 The Moon appears slightly different every night of its 29.5-day lunar cycle. The Moon s appearance changes as Earth and the Moon move. Depending on where the Moon is in relation to Earth and the Sun, observers on Earth see only part of the light the Moon reflects from the Sun. Question How do the positions of the Sun, the Moon, and Earth cause the phases of the Moon? Materials foam ball pencil lamp stool Safety Procedure 1. Read and complete a lab safety form. 2. Hold a foam ball that represents the Moon. Make a handle for the ball by inserting a pencil about two inches into the ball. Your partner will represent an observer on Earth. Have your partner sit on a stool and record observations during the activity. 3. Place a lamp on a desk or other flat surface. Remove the shade from the lamp. The lamp represents the Sun. 4. Turn on the lamp and darken the lights in the room. Do not touch the bulb or look directly at it after the lamp is turned on. 5. Position the Earth observer s stool about 1 m from the Sun. Position the Moon m from the observer so that the Sun, Earth, and the Moon are in a line. The student holding the Moon holds the Moon so it is completely illuminated on one half. The observer records the phase and what the phase looks like. Draw a data table below to record all observations. Study Guide Chapter Review Benchmark Practice The Sun-Earth-Moon System 49
6 Big Idea Lab continued 6. Move the Moon clockwise about one-eighth of the way around its orbit of Earth. The observer swivels on the stool to face the Moon and records the phase. 7. Continue the Moon s orbit until the Earth observer has recorded all the Moon s phases. 8. Return to your positions as the Moon and Earth observer. Choose a part in the Moon s orbit that you did not model. Predict what the Moon would look like in that position, and check if your prediction is correct. 9. Explain Use your observations to explain how the positions of the Sun, the Moon, and Earth produce the different phases of the Moon. Benchmark Practice Chapter Review Study Guide Lab Tips Make sure the observer s head does not cast a shadow on the Moon. The student holding the Moon should hold the pencil so that he or she always stands on the unlit side of the Moon. Analyze and Conclude 10. The Big Idea Why is half of the Moon always lit? Why do you usually see only part of the Moon s lit half? Remember to use scientific methods. Make Observations Ask a Question Form a Hypothesis Test your Hypothesis Analyze and Conclude Communicate Results 11. Draw Conclusions Based on your observations, why is the Moon not visible from Earth during the new-moon phase? 50 The Sun-Earth-Moon System
7 Big Idea Lab continued 12. Summarize Which parts of your model were waxing phases? Which parts were waning phases? 13. Think Critically During which phases of the Moon can eclipses occur? Explain. Communicate Your Results Create a poster of the results from your lab. Illustrate various positions of the Sun, the Moon, and Earth, and draw the phase of the Moon for each. Include a statement of your hypothesis on the poster. Extension The Moon is not the only object in the sky that has phases when viewed from Earth. The planets Venus and Mercury also have phases. Research the phases of these planets and create a calendar that shows when the various phases of Venus and Mercury occur. Study Guide Chapter Review Benchmark Practice The Sun-Earth-Moon System 51
