- 20. Multiple ChoiceWhich of the following never changes no matter where in the universe?weightforcemasspounds
- 21. Multiple ChoiceAny object with mass has gravity.TrueSometimesFalseNever
- 22. Multiple ChoiceWhat does this tool measure?weightmetersmassforce
- 23. Multiple ChoiceA person would weigh more on Jupiter than on the Earth because . . .Jupiter has more mass, and therefore more gravityJupiter has less mass, and therefore more gravityJupiter has more mass, and therefore less gravityJupiter has less mass and therefore less gravity
- 24. Multiple Choice
In which model has would the moon travel around the Earth faster?
Model A
Model B
Same for Model A and Model B
- 25. Multiple Choice
Without gravity, the stars, planets and all celestial objects in the universe would?
continue to orbit each other
move in a random direction
move in a straight line
stop moving
- 26. Multiple ChoiceThe closer two objects are to each otherthe harder they will landhave no gravitational forcehave a stronger gravitational forceyep
- 27. Multiple ChoiceAs mass increases, what happens to gravitational force?increasesdecreasesstays the samei don't know
- 28. Multiple Choice
Do planets affect the movement of the sun? Why?
No. Sun pull on the planets and keep them in orbit.
Yes. Sun pulls on planets, planets pull on Sun
- 29. Multiple ChoicePlanets that are closer to the suntake more time to orbittake less time to orbit
- 30. Multiple ChoiceWhich of the following would increase the force of gravity on a planet?Decreasing the mass of the star.Decreasing the distance between the planet and star.Decreasing the mass of the planet.All of the above.
