Why can astronauts jump and float a little on the Moon?

Because the Moon's gravity is NOT that STRONG.

Because the Moon's gravity is VERY STRONG.

How much MATTER makes up an object.

How much GRAVITY is pulling an object.

The measure of how HEAVY something is.

The measure of how much GRAVITY is pulling on an object.

Find the definition of "orbit."

a curved path that an object makes around another object

A person would weigh more on Jupiter than on the Earth because---

Jupiter has more mass, and therefore more gravity

Jupiter has less mass, and therefore less gravity

Jupiter has more mass, and therefore less gravity.

Jupiter has less mass, and therefore more gravity.

Which model has greater gravitational attraction (if any)

Both Model A and Model B (same gravity)

Which System has the greater gravitational pull between the two objects?

Same: there is no gravitational attraction between the two objects

How does changing the distance of the string in the model represent the orbits of the planets?

the longer the string, the longer the orbit time of a planet

the longer the string means the larger the planet

the shorter the string, the longer the orbit time of the planet

the shorter the string, the smaller the planet

What is the difference between weight and mass?

mass is the actual amount of material contained in a body and weight is the force exerted by the gravity.

Mass is ignorant of direction. On the other hand, weight is a vector quantity; it is direction-aware.

there isn't much of a change between the two.

Biiiiiig difference, but I'm not sure what it is.

What would happen to the planets in the solar system if the sun’s gravitational force were to suddenly disappear?

They will fly away in straight lines.

They will start moving toward the Sun.

They will stop moving and become static.

Why a ball falls to the ground?

Earth's force of gravity is GREATER than the ball's, so the ball gets attracted to the ground.

Earth's force of gravity is LESS than the ball's, so the ball gets attracted to the ground.
