As the moon orbits the earth, its gravity pulls the water in the moon's direction.

For how many hours does the water typically rise in a high tide?

For how many hours does the water typically fall back down?

What do we call an invisible force that pulls everything down to Earth’s surface?

The weight of an object is how hard gravity pulls it down.

What do we call the amount of matter an object contains?

Weight does not change based on location, but mass does.

If you were to travel to different planets in the Solar System, you would have the same weight on each planet.

Which is bigger?

Planets with a larger mass would have which gravitational pull on objects?

Planets with a smaller mass would have which gravitational pull on objects?

You would weight the same as the Icelandic sheep dog on

You would weight the same as an Antarctic Fur Seal on:

You would weight the same as a macaque on:

If you are on the moon, your weight is how many times less that on Earth?

Your mass is exactly the same on Earth and on the Moon.
