Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
If mass is greater, what happens to the inertia?   inertia is greater  
🗑
How is gravity affected when you have more friction?   more gravity is needed  
🗑
Who are Newton's named after?   Sir Isaac Newton  
🗑
What can gravity work against?   other forces  
🗑
How are the forces on earth compared to elsewhere in the universe?   forces are not different  
🗑
An objects weight, unlike mass, can change depending on what?   its' location  
🗑
If mass increases, what happens to the force?   force will also increase  
🗑
If distance increases, what happens to force?   force decreases  
🗑
What are the 2 factors that determine the strength of force & gravity between 2 objects?   the mass of the objects and the distance between them  
🗑
If mass increases and distance stays the same, what happens to the force of gravity?   force of gravity increases  
🗑
If mass decreases and distance stays the same, what happens to the force of gravity?   force of gravity decreases  
🗑
If mass stays the same and distance decreases, what happens to the force of gravity?   force of gravity increases  
🗑
If mass stays the same and distance increases, what happens to the force of gravity?   force of gravity decreases  
🗑
Why do we not feel gravity's pull?   because we are so far from the core.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
