Question
- A. space-01-mcq-02 evidence: moon orbiting a planet correctly supports (Physics only) Apply MS 1c and MS 3b when interpreting proportional relationships between orbital radius and orbital speed by using observation, spectrum, signal, data in Orbital motion, natural and artificial satellites.
- B. space-01-mcq-02 orbitrotation error: this swaps orbit with rotation and misses evidence reasoning.
- C. space-01-mcq-02 scalemix error: this mixes planet star galaxy universe scale and loses the boundary.
- D. space-01-mcq-02 evidencegap error: this gives a vague astronomy fact but omits the named evidence stage or object.
Answer
The correct option is space-01-mcq-02 evidence: moon orbiting a planet correctly supports (Physics only) Apply MS 1c and MS 3b when interpreting proportional relationships between orbital radius and orbital speed by using observation, spectrum, signal, data in Orbital motion, natural and artificial satellites.
Explanation
space-01-mcq-02 evidence: moon orbiting a planet correctly supports (Physics only) Apply MS 1c and MS 3b when interpreting proportional relationships between orbital radius and orbital speed by using observation, spectrum, signal, data in Orbital motion, natural and artificial satellites. It links moon orbiting a planet to the exact learning objective instead of drifting into a nearby astronomy idea. In orbital motion, gravity supplies the centripetal force, so the object keeps changing direction while remaining in a stable path around the body it orbits. The distractors fail through orbit-rotation confusion, scale mixing, or missing evidence. Unique focus tokens: observation spectrum signal data measurement inference support pattern conclusion.
