Start on the home screen of the interactive figure, with "Elevation is off." Then turn elevation on, and compare what you see. You may wish to switch back and forth between elevation on and off a few times. Then select the statements below that are true. Note: Features such as impact craters that are actually round in shape are distorted into oval shapes at mid- to high-latitudes by map projection effects.
A. The icy polar caps have the highest elevations of any features on Mars.
B. There is a long, deep canyon that stretches along a region close to Mars's equator.
C. Most of the northern hemisphere has much lower elevation than the southern hemisphere.
D. The northern hemisphere is more heavily cratered than the southern hemisphere.
E. There is a large, roundish region of low-elevation in the southern hemisphere.
F. Several large volcanoes are found near or somewhat north of Mars's equator.

Why do O stars exhibit weak hydrogen absorption lines?
A) At these high temperatures, nearly all the hydrogen is ionized, and is therefore unable to interact with light. B) O stars are too cool to excite hydrogen atoms to the first energy level from which they can then absorb visible wavelengths of light. C) O stars contain very little hydrogen.
The force of a falling apple hitting the ground depends upon

What is the name for the period of time it takes the Moon to circle the Earth once?
What will be an ideal response?
Potential Energy: A very small 4.8-g particle carrying a charge of +9.9 ?C is fired with an initial speed of 8.0 m/s directly toward a second small 7.8-g particle carrying a charge of + 5.2 ?C. The second particle is held fixed throughout this process. If these particles are initially very far apart, what is the closest they get to each other? (k = 1/4??0 = 9.0 × 109 N ? m2/C2)
