Things in Motion: the Force of Gravity

The video explains gravity as the force pulling objects toward Earth's center, keeping us grounded. It also attracts planets to the sun, maintaining their orbits. Gravity is measured by the force it exerts on mass, which remains constant regardless of location. However, weight varies due to differing gravitational forces, such as on the Moon, where objects weigh less than on Earth.

What is gravity and how does it affect objects on Earth?

What would happen if gravity did not exist when you jumped?
