Gravity

Front

What happens to gravity as mass increases?

Back

Gravity increases.

Front

Which celestial body has more mass, Earth or the Moon?

Back

Earth has more mass than the Moon.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and gravitational force?

Back

As mass increases, gravitational force increases.

Front

Why is the sun's gravity very strong?

Back

Because it is very large.

Front

Which object has a greater force of gravity, Earth or the Moon?

Back

Earth has a greater force of gravity.

Front

What is gravity?

Back

Gravity is a force that attracts two bodies towards each other, proportional to their masses.

Front

How does distance affect gravitational force?

Back

Gravitational force decreases as the distance between two objects increases.

Front

What is the formula for calculating gravitational force?

Back

The formula is F = G * (m1 * m2) / r^2, where F is the gravitational force, G is the gravitational constant, m1 and m2 are the masses, and r is the distance between the centers of the two masses.

Front

What role does the gravitational constant (G) play in the gravitational force equation?

Back

The gravitational constant (G) is a proportionality factor that makes the units work in the gravitational force equation.

Front

How does the mass of an object affect its weight on Earth?

Back

Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object, so as mass increases, weight increases.
