Big Questions to Understand:
How mass affects equilibrium?
How do pressure and gravity change throughout the life of a star?
How gravity and pressure affect equilibrium in a main sequence star?
Characteristics of the phases in the Life Cycle of a Star
The EM Spectrum
The HR Diagram – know how to relate temperature to luminosity or absolute
magnitude on the diagram
What kinds of information does a star’s spectrum tell us?
What happens when light excites electrons – how is what we see as color produced
or created? IPC
Relate frequency to wavelength in the visible light spectrum – 8th Science
Explain the complexity in the parts, purpose, complexity demo for the supernova?
Explain how the balloon demo we did in class models the Big Bang Theory – 8th
Science
Explain how red shift, cosmic background microwave radiation, and nucleosynthesis
supports the Big Bang Theory.
Explain why there is NO center of the universe.
