Front

What is mass?

Back

The amount of matter in an object.

Front

What is weight?

Back

The force of gravity acting on an object.

Front

How does distance affect gravity?

Back

The farther apart two objects are, the weaker the gravitational force between them.

Front

What is the gravitational force between two objects dependent on?

Back

The mass of the objects and the distance between them.

Front

What is the formula for gravitational force?

Back

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