Suppose you are in Sydney, Australia (latitude 34βS). Answer each of the following.
Part B
Where is the meridian in your sky?
The meridian is a circle in the sky, parallel to the horizon and located at the altitude of the 56ββ, value complementing the latitude to the straight angle.
The meridian is a circle in the sky, parallel to the horizon and located at the altitude of the 34ββ, equal to the latitude of the observer.
The meridian is a half-circle extending from the south point on the horizon through the zenith to the north point on the horizon.
The meridian is a half-circle extending from the west point on the horizon through the zenith to the east point on the horizon.
Part C
Where is the celestial equator in your sky?
The celestial equator is a half-circle extending from the east point on the horizon through the point at an altitude of 56ββ and azimuth due north to the west point on the horizon.
The celestial equator is a half-circle extending from the north point on the horizon through the point at an altitude of 56ββ and azimuth due east to the south point on the horizon.
The celestial equator is a half-circle extending from the north point on the horizon through the point at an altitude of 34ββ and azimuth due east to the south point on the horizon.
The celestial equator is a half-circle extending from the east point on the horizon through the point at an altitude of 34ββ and azimuth due north to the west point on the horizon.

Moon effect. some people believe that the moon controls their activities. if the moon moves from being directly on the opposite side of earth from you to being directly overhead, by what percentage does (a) the moon's gravitational pull on you increase and (b) your weight (as measured on a scale) decrease? assume that the earthβmoon (center-to-center) distance is 3.82 Γ 10^8 m, earth's radius is 6.37 Γ 10^6 m, moon's mass is 7.36 Γ 10^22 kg, and earth's mass is 5.98 Γ 10^24 kg.
