Gravity Review

Front

What happens to gravitational force as mass increases?

Back

Gravitational force increases.

Front

True or False: An object's gravity depends on the SIZE of the object.

Back

True

Front

When will the gravity between two objects be the LEAST?

Back

When the masses of both objects are small and the objects are far apart.

Front

What happens when you increase the mass of an object?

Back

The object's gravity increases - it's harder to lift!

Front

As you increase the mass of an object, what happens to the gravitational force it exerts?

Back

It increases.

Front

What is gravity?

Back

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

Front

What factors affect gravitational force?

Back

Mass of the objects and distance between them.

Front

What is the relationship between distance and gravitational force?

Back

As distance increases, gravitational force decreases.

Front

What is the formula for gravitational force?

Back

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.

Front

What is the gravitational constant (G)?

Back

G is approximately 6.674 × 10^-11 N(m/kg)^2.
