DECREASES, due to the larger distance from the source of gravity Mt. Everest Where is your source of gravity? The Center Of Earth weaker NO! Your mass hasn’t changed! Farther Medfield Mt Everest NOTHING! Stays the Same! Has my inertia changed? WHY? What happens to my weight? WHY? What happens to my mass? WHY? Are you closer or farther from the center of gravity than in Medfield? Is the pull of gravity STRONGER or weaker than in Medfield?

Mariana Trench INCREASES, to smaller distance from source of gravity Where is your source of gravity? STRONGER NO! Your mass hasn’t changed! The Center Of Earth Medfield Mariana Trench Closer INCREASES, to smaller distance from source of gravity NOTHING! Stays the Same! What happens to my weight? WHY? What happens to my mass? WHY? Are you closer or farther from the center of gravity than in Medfield? Has my inertia changed? WHY? Is the pull of gravity STRONGER or weaker than in Medfield?

Moon Earth! More Mass = More Gravitational Pull DECREASES, due to weaker source of gravity Moon Where is your source of gravity? What has more mass – Earth or the Moon? More Mass = More Gravitational Pull The Center Of the Moon NOTHING! Stays the Same! Earth! Which place has a STRONGER gravitational pull? WHY? Earth! What happens to my mass? WHY? What is the relationship between MASS and Gravitational Pull? What happens to my weight? WHY?

Jupiter Jupiter! More Mass = More Gravitational Pull Where is your source of gravity? INCREASES, to stronger source of gravity The Center Of Jupiter More Mass = More Gravitational Pull What has more mass – Earth or Jupiter? NOTHING! Stays the Same! Jupiter! Jupiter! Which place has a STRONGER gravitational pull? WHY? What happens to my mass? WHY? What is the relationship between MASS and Gravitational Pull? What happens to my weight? WHY?

Pluto Earth! More Mass = More Gravitational Pull Where is your source of gravity? DECREASES, due to weaker source of gravity More Mass = More Gravitational Pull The Center Of Pluto What has more mass – Earth or Pluto? NOTHING! Stays the Same! Earth! Which place has a STRONGER gravitational pull? WHY? Earth! What happens to my mass? WHY? What is the relationship between MASS and Gravitational Pull? What happens to my weight? WHY?

What are the two factors that influence an objects weight? MASS, because the amount of matter does not change according to location. Mass of item & strength of gravitational pull Between mass and weight which remains constant (if no matter is added or taken)?
