1) What are the names of the four large Galilean moons of Jupiter?
2) What information do we need to record to be able find the period and semi-major axis of the orbit for each Moon?
3) In this experiment, if we drew a separate sine curve for each time a moon orbited Jupiter for each of four orbits, would be get the exact same sine curve every time? Would taking more observations from more times around Jupiter make the final results more accurate or less?
4) Extra Credit: Jupiter has four large moons and many smaller ones. Some of these smaller moons are further away from Jupiter than any of the four large Galilean moons? Will the moons that are farther away go around Jupiter faster, slower or at the same speed as the moons closer to Jupiter and Why?
