Understanding Gravity

What would happen if there was no gravity on Earth?

• Objects would become heavier.

• The Earth would stop rotating.

• The atmosphere would become denser.

• Objects would float away into space.

What determines the amount of gravity an object has?

• Its color

• Its speed

• Its mass

• Its temperature

Why don't we get pulled towards the Sun despite its strong gravity?

• The Sun's gravity only affects planets.

• We are closer to the Earth than the Sun.

• The Earth's atmosphere blocks the Sun's gravity.

• The Earth's gravity is stronger.

Who first described the theory of gravity?

• Albert Einstein

• Galileo Galilei

• Isaac Newton

• Nikola Tesla

What is the name of the theory that improved upon Newton's ideas about gravity?

• String Theory

• Quantum Theory

• Theory of Relativity

• Theory of Evolution

How does gravity affect your weight on different planets?

• Weight increases on smaller planets.

• Weight remains the same on all planets.

• Weight decreases on larger planets.

• Weight varies depending on the planet's gravity.

What is the gravity on the Moon compared to Earth?

• 1/2 of Earth's gravity

• 1/4 of Earth's gravity

• 1/16 of Earth's gravity

• Same as Earth's gravity

How does gravity help in plant growth?

• It guides the direction in which plants grow.

• It provides nutrients to plants.

• It increases the size of plants.

• It changes the color of plants.

What causes ocean tides on Earth?

• The Sun's gravity

• The Earth's rotation

• The Moon's gravity

• The wind

Why is gravity crucial for life on Earth?

• It keeps the Earth warm.

• It increases the Earth's size.

• It holds the atmosphere and air in place.

• It speeds up the Earth's rotation.
