Gravity and motion in our solar system

What factors affect the gravitational force between any two objects

• whether they are in the sun's solar system or not

• the mass of the objects and the distance between them

• the mass of the objects and their interia

• the distance between the objects and their inertia

Newton's first law of motion states that any moving objects has (inertia/orbital moon).

• Inertia

• Orbital moon

Inertia is

• the tendency of an object in motion to resist a change in motion unless acted upon by a force

• the tendency of an object in motion to resist a change in force unless acted upon by a force

• to have power over something

The force of gravity between two objects depends on two factors:

• Mass and distance

• Mass and force

• Force and gravity

Some moving objects, called satellites, are in orbit around other objects. One force that affects the path of a satellite is the (inertia / gravity) between the satellite and the object it orbits.

• Inertia

• Gravity
