G5 Q3 SCI Gravity

What is the force that pulls objects toward the Earth?

• Magnetism

• Friction

• Gravity

• Electricity

What type of force is gravity?

• Contact force

• Non-contact force

• Magnetic force

• Frictional force

What does gravity affect on Earth?

• Only living things

• Only non-living things

• The behavior of materials and objects

• Only water bodies

What should you predict and explain about heavier and lighter objects in relation to gravity?

• Heavier objects will float

• Lighter objects will fall faster

• Heavier objects will fall faster

• Both will fall at the same speed

What should you observe and describe about gravity?

• Its color

• Its effects on the motion of an object

• Its temperature

• Its sound

What is the non-contact force that affects the behavior of materials and objects on Earth in predictable ways?

• Magnetism

• Friction

• Gravity

• Electricity

What do you think keeps us on the ground?

• Wind

• Gravity

• Light

• Sound

Which object do you think will hit the ground first and why?

• The feather, because it is lighter.

• The rocks, because they are heavier.

• Both will hit the ground at the same time.

• The feather, because it is more aerodynamic.

What is gravity?

• A force that pushes objects away from each other

• A non-contact force that pulls objects toward each other

• A force that only affects small objects

• A force that only works in space

What does gravity do?

• Keeps objects floating in the air

• Causes objects to move away from each other

• Keeps us on the ground and holds planets in orbit

• Makes objects disappear
