Today we discussed last night's reading, Mars specifically. We also went over the homework problems.
Notes today covered absorption and emission spectra, you got to see the difference in light emission of fluorescent lights and natural sunlight with the spectroscope.
We also covered the doppler effect and what it tells us about other stars and the expansion of the universe.
Homework over the weekend? Study - we have two tests coming up.
Upcoming exams: Cumulative Exam Next Friday, the 17th- covers ALL content from previous tests. In fact, every question on this test comes from a previous test, all of which you have had the chance to copy down questions and answers from. so there is no excuse not to get an A on this... you were given the questions and answers on this exam.
Final exam: (depends on your class, but the 20th/21st) This will be over Astronomy. Those of you who are exempt from the final requirement will still take this exam. You will, however, not be penalized if the exam would hurt you.
Next homework assignment: Read chapter 8, section 3. Due Tuesday.
