revalution
a motion with two objects but one moves around in a circle around the other one
rotation
a motion that has one object and an axis to spin
major gasses with percent
nitrogen 78.08% oxygen 20.95% argon .93%
compare elipse and cicle
the elipse has more electrites than an circle an elipse has two foci points but the circle only has one
compare rotation and revalution
rotation has an axis in the middle but revalution doesnt, revalution has two object rotation has one
how do you find the cardnal direction using the sun
it rises in the east and sets in the west when your facing the sun you are facing south and your back is facing north
how do you find the cardnal direction using the moon
it rises in the east and sets in the west when your facing the moon you are facing south and your back is facing north
how do you find the cardnal direction using the stars
find usra minor then find the big dipper then you find the two stars in the cup poirtion stars if you follow the direction the stars are leading you in that way is north
