Understanding Gravity

What is the primary function of gravity as described in the first section?

• To push objects away from each other

• To pull objects towards each other

• To make objects float in space

• To create sound waves

Which famous scientist is credited with the discovery of gravity?

• Nikola Tesla

• Albert Einstein

• Galileo Galilei

• Isaac Newton

How does gravity affect the planets in our solar system?

• It makes them spin faster

• It increases their temperature

• It keeps them in orbit around the Sun

• It changes their color

What is the relationship between mass and gravitational force?

• Larger mass means stronger gravitational pull

• Mass does not affect gravitational pull

• Smaller mass means stronger gravitational pull

• Larger mass means weaker gravitational pull

Why do we weigh more on the Sun compared to Earth?

• Because the Sun has a larger mass

• Because the Sun is brighter

• Because the Sun is closer to Earth

• Because the Sun is hotter
