In the gravity well lab which sphere had the strongest gravitational force and why?

• The white sphere because it was the most dense.

• The white sphere because it was the least dense.

• The 2" play doh sphere because it was the most dense.

• The 2" play doh sphere because it was the least dense.

How do gravity "wells" or dips in the fabric represent the motion of the planets in the solar system?

• Large planets with a low density have very strong gravity wells.

• Small planets with a somewhat high density pull in really large objects.

• Small planets with a small density pull in really large objects.

• Large planets with a large density have very strong gravity wells.
