Gravity

Front

What is gravity?

Back

Gravity is a force that attracts two bodies towards each other, depending on their masses and the distance between them.

Front

What two factors does gravity depend on?

Back

Gravity depends on mass and distance.

Front

How does increasing the mass of an object affect its gravitational pull?

Back

Increasing the mass of an object increases its gravitational pull.

Front

What happens to the gravitational force if the distance between two objects increases?

Back

The gravitational force decreases as the distance between two objects increases.

Front

What are the inner planets of our solar system?

Back

The inner planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.

Front

Why do planets orbit the Sun?

Back

Planets orbit the Sun because it is the most massive object in our solar system, exerting the greatest gravitational pull.

Front

What is the effect of distance on gravitational attraction?

Back

As the distance between two objects increases, the gravitational attraction between them decreases.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and gravitational force?

Back

The gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the two objects.

Front

What is the formula for gravitational force?

Back

The formula for gravitational force is 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 between the centers of the two masses.

Front

What is the gravitational pull of the Earth?

Back

The gravitational pull of the Earth is approximately 9.81 m/s².
