Gravity

Gravity attracts all objects towards one another.

• False
• True
• It depends

As distance between two objects increase the pull of gravity 

• Increases
• Decreases
• Stays the same

A person would weigh less on on the Moon than on the Earth because . . .

• Moon has more mass, and therefore more gravity
• Moon has less mass, and therefore more gravity
• Moon has more mass, and therefore less gravity
• Moon has less mass and therefore less gravity

Two factors effecting the magnitude of the force of gravity between 2 objects are...

• mass and distance 
• mass and matter
• distance and weight 
• weight and mass

When will the forces of gravity between two objects be the GREATEST?

• when the masses of both objects are small and the objects are far apart

• when the masses of both objects are large and the objects are close together

• when the masses of both objects are small and the objects are close together

• when the masses of both objects are large and the objects are far apart

Which statement about gravity is true?

• gravity causes objects to pull towards one another

• gravity causes objects to push away from each other

• gravity only takes place between planets

• the moon doesn't have any gravity

What keeps the planets in orbit around the sun?

• gravity

• friction

• density

• distance

When will the gravity between two objects be the LEAST?

• when the masses of both objects is small and the objects are close together

• when the masses of both objects is small and the objects are far apart

• when the masses of both objects is large and the objects are close together

• when the masses of both objects is large and the objects are far apart

The planet Mars has less gravity than Earth. This is because Mars has ___________ mass than the planet Earth.

• less

• more

• the same

What two things determine the gravity of an object?

• mass & weight

• mass & distance

• density & mass

• volume & distance
