stays the same
- 8. Multiple ChoiceThe Earth’s gravitational field is stronger on an object closer to its surface.TrueFalse
- 9. Multiple ChoiceWhat force keeps objects in our solar system orbiting our Sun?pushgravitymotionpull
- 10. Multiple ChoiceWhich model has greater gravitational attraction (if any)Model AModel BBoth Model A and Model B (same gravity)
- 11. Multiple ChoiceWhich system has the greater gravitational attraction between the two objects (if any)?System ASystem BSame gravitational attraction fro System A and System B
- 12. Multiple Choice
Which System has the greater gravitational pull between the two objects?
System 1
System 2
There is no gravitational attraction between the two objects. their mass is too small.
- 13. Multiple ChoiceHow does changing the distance of the string in the model represent the orbits of the planets?the longer the string means the larger the planetthe longer the string, the longer the orbit time of a planetthe shorter the string, the longer the orbit time of the planetthe shorter the string, the smaller the planet
- 14. Multiple Choice
Do planets affect the sun? Why?
No. The Sun pulls on the planets and keep them in orbit.
Yes. Sun pulls on planets; planets pull on Sun.
- 15. Multiple Choice
What best describes the mass and weight of a person as they move around the universe?
Mass and weight changes.
Mass and weight stays constant.
Weight remains constant and mass changes.
Mass stays constant and weight changes.
- 16. Multiple ChoiceWhat is mass?Attraction between objectsHow much matter in an objectAmount of space in object
- 17. Multiple ChoiceWhat would be true of weight if you went to Jupiter?Weight lowers because Jupiter's gravity is less than Earth'sWeight and mass increase because Jupiter has more gravityWeight would increase because Jupiter has more gravityWeight and mass decrease because Jupiter has more gravity
