Description: Our Socratica Astronomy series is back! Bookmark the playlist here: ✷ socratica.link/Astro_Playlist We also ask you join our STELLAR email list so we can notify you when new videos go live: ✷ socratica.com/email-groups/astronomy (Don’t rely on the YT algorithm to show you what you’re really interested in!) ✵✵✵✵✵ Units of Mass in Astronomy Kilograms, Earth Mass, Jupiter Mass, Solar Mass We’re familiar with grams and kilograms as measures of mass here on Earth. But when it comes time to measure the mass of immense objects like planets, it makes more sense to compare them to the masses of other planets. That’s why astronomers have defined the units Earth Mass, Jupiter Mass, & Solar Mass. ✵✵✵✵✵ CHAPTERS You can jump to chapters in the video here: 0:00 Units of mass here on Earth (grams, kilograms) 0:28 Earth Mass 1:06 The mass of Mercury, Venus, and Mars 2:00 Jupiter Mass 2:34 mass of Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune 2:48 mass of Extrasolar Planets and Brown Dwarfs 3:00 Solar Mass 4:00 Using Kepler’s Third Law to calculate Mass 4:50 Big stars vs small stars 5:40 Why do we want to know a star’s mass? 6:00 Supernova vs Planetary Nebula 6:45 Challenge Question When you’re ready, you can check your work on the Challenge problem on our webpage: ✷ socratica.com/lesson/astronomical-masses-problem Our video about Kepler’s Third Law: ✷ socratica.com/lesson/keplers-third-law-of-motion ✵✵✵✵✵ THANKS TO OUR SOCRATICA FRIENDS We are so lucky to know these kind people who care deeply about educating the world!
