  • what would happen to you if there there was no force of gravity on earth?
    you would be floating and fall off the surface of the earth
  • who discovered gravity?
    Isaac Newton
  • The more matter something has, the less the force of its gravity. is this true or false?
    it is false because The more matter something has, the greater the force of its gravity.
  • unit for measuring weight? unit for measuring mass ?
    mass - Kg(kilograms); weight -N (newton)
  • write the 8 planets in the solar system in order of their distance from the sun
    mercury, venus, earth, ,mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune
  • if an object has a weight of 60N on earth, how much has it is going to have on the moon?
    10N. because the moon has 1/6 of the earth's gravitational force. so the weight of any object on the moon will be 1/6 the mass of that object on earth
  • which 5 have the highest gravitational force? why?
    Jupiter,Neptune, Saturn, earth, Venus . it has the highest gravitational force
  • what is gravity?
    Gravity is a force of attraction that pulls together all matter (anything you can physically touch).
  • If Marika weighs 29 kg and Artemy weighs 30kg what are their combined weights?
    for Marika 29kg x 10ms^-2 =290N ; for Artemy 30kg x 10ms^-2 =300N : combined weights = 290N+300N =590N
  • arrange these objects based on which has the strongest gravitational pull. Earth, Moon, Jupiter, A large rock
    Jupiter- Earth- Moon- Large rock
