Back

Gravity

Front

What is the relationship between mass and gravitational force?

Back

The greater the mass of an object, the stronger its gravitational pull.

Front

What is the formula for calculating weight?

Back

Weight = Mass x Gravitational Acceleration (W = m x g)

Front

What is gravitational acceleration on Earth?

Back

Approximately 9.8 m/s².

Front

What is the effect of distance on gravitational force?

Back

Gravitational force decreases as the distance between two objects increases.
