Gravitational Forces

Front

What is the push or pull between two objects called?

Back

Force

Front

What happens to gravitational pull when mass increases?

Back

Higher mass creates higher gravitational pull.

Front

What does mass measure?

Back

How much matter is present in an object.

Front

What term describes objects being pulled together?

Back

Attract

Front

What is true about the gravitational force between a baseball and a bat on the ground?

Back

They attract each other with equal gravitational force.

Front

What is gravitational force?

Back

The force of attraction between two masses.

Front

How does distance affect gravitational force?

Back

Gravitational force decreases as distance increases.

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 between their centers.

Front

What is the gravitational pull of Earth on an object?

Back

It is the weight of the object.

Front

What is the difference between mass and weight?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force of gravity acting on that mass.
