Unit 7 lesson 2, Gravity and Motion

What is Earths Gravitational force?

9.8 m/s squared

Gravity

A force of attraction between objects that is due to their masses.

Weight

A force that depends on mass; a measure of the amount of gravity on an object

What force causes the difference in how fast an object falls to earth?

Air resistance

Gravitational force increases as distance.......

Decreases

Determines weight

F=MG

Earth accelerates all objects in different ways

False

Gravitational force increases as the mass of an object.....

Increases

Movement is only see in objects with what?

Larger masses

A heavy object and ___________ fall in the same way

Light

Gravity affects___________ equally

Mass

The strength of gravitational force between 2 objects depends on the what?

Mass and distance

What are some attributes to gravity

Non Contact Attractive Force Affects mass equally

orbit

The path of an object as it revolves around another object in space

Gravity pulls but does not push push

True

Free fall

the motion of a body when only the force of gravity is acting on the body

law of universal gravitation

the relationship between gravitational force, mass, and distance
