Law of Gravity

SC.6.P.13.2 Explore the Law of Gravity by recognizing that every object exerts gravitational force on every other object and that the force depends on how much mass the objects have and how far apart they are.

Multiple Choice

. If it were possible to weigh yourself while in orbit, you would weigh less than you do on Earth. Why is your weight lower while you are in orbit than when you are on Earth’s surface?

1

There is too great a distance between you and Earth for gravity to have any effect.

2

There is a greater distance between you and Earth, and gravity is related to distance.

3

You have more mass when you are farther away from Earth, and gravity is related to mass.

4

The gravities of satellites and other objects in orbit around Earth contribute to your weight while in orbit.

32

Multiple Choice

Which statement about the universality of gravity is true?

1

Every pair of objects in the universe has the same force of gravity acting between them.

2

Any two objects that have mass also have a force of gravity acting between them, no matter how far apart they are.

3

The gravity between objects that have a lot of mass is always greater than the gravity between objects that have less mass.

4

The gravity between objects that are close together is always greater than the gravity between objects that are farther apart.
