Gravity

Front

What is gravity?

Back

Gravity is a force that attracts two bodies towards each other.

Front

As distance between objects increases, the pull of gravity...

Back

decreases.

Front

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

Back

Earth.

Front

What two things determine the gravity of an object?

Back

mass & distance.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and gravity?

Back

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

Front

What happens to gravity as mass increases?

Back

Gravity increases.

Front

What is the effect of distance on gravitational force?

Back

As distance increases, gravitational force decreases.

Front

Can gravity act over long distances?

Back

Yes, gravity can act over very long distances.

Front

What is the gravitational force between two objects dependent on?

Back

It depends on their masses 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.
