The law of gravity

9.

6.8D- During a science experiment, a student dropped a metal ball from a height of 150 m. The graph shows the distance the metal ball traveled from its initial position to where it hit the ground.


What information does the graph give you about the speed of the metal ball over time?

a)

The ball travels at a constant speed.

b)

The speed of the ball increases over time.

c)

The speed of the ball decreases over time.

d)

e speed of the ball increases at first, and then decreases as time increases.

10.

The moon has a smaller mass than Earth. How does the moon's gravity compare to Earth's gravity?

a)

The moon's gravity is greater than Earth because the moon has more mass.

b)

The moon's gravity is less than Earth because he moon has less mass.

c)

The moon and Earth's gravity are the same because gravity is a constant force.

d)

The moon does not have gravity because it is in outer space.
