Multiple Choice

True or False

Gravity is responsible for keeping the planets in orbit around the Sun?

• True

• False

Multiple Choice

True or Flase

• Gorilla glue

• Alien's Super Glue

• electromagnetic forces

• gravity

Multiple Choice

The closer a planet is to the Sun, the __________

its orbital motion is, and the__________ the planet is from the Sun, the _______ the gravitational force between the planet and the Sun.

• slower, closet, faster

• faster, farthest, slower

• more space turtles they are in space

• sea monkeys run faster in, the star sharks jump, the dolphins have

Multiple Choice

True or False

The force of gravity is what holds the orbit of planets around the Sun in our Solar system

• False

Multiple Choice

Who was the person responsible for discovering gravity?

• Mickey Mouse

• Sir Issac Newton

• John Siena

• Aliens

Multiple Choice

True of False

A planet farther from the Sun not only has a longer path than a closer planet, but it also travels slower, since the Sun’s gravitational pull on it is weaker.
