1. Do you truly understand the gravity of the situation?

2. What is Gravity?
Force exerted by every object in the universe on every other object

3. What Does Gravity Depend On?
Gravity Depends on 2 things
1. MASS
Measurement of the amount
of matter in an object
2. The DISTANCE between
the two objects

4. NO What about Weight? NO NO Are weight and mass the same thing?
What is weight then?
Weight is the measure of the force of gravity on an object NO NO

5. Is my weight different on the moon than on earth?
YES
WHY?
Because the gravity on the moon is less than on the earth!
Remember: weight is directly related to the force of gravity!!!!!!!

6. Why is the gravity different?
Remember gravitational force depends on 2 things…..
Mass and Distance between objects
Mass of an object is a measurement of the amount of matter in an object
Meaning the larger and fuller the object the greater the mass

7. What are the important questions here ?
Will my belly be smaller (meaning less mass) on the moon? NO
Will my belly weigh less on the moon?
YES

8. Take a trip around the cosmos
Weight on Earth lbs
Weight on the Moon lbs
Weight on Venus lbs
Weight on Mars 57 lbs
Weight on Jupiter 381 lbs
