INVERSE-SQUARE RULE

6. 4*4 Investigate INVERSE-SQUARE RULE 
When distance is DOUBLED (×2), the acceleration becomes ¼ its original value
When distance is TRIPLED (×3), the acceleration becomes 1/9 its original value
When distance is QUADRUPLED (×4), the acceleration becomes _____
When distance is ×5, the acceleration becomes _____

7. 4*4 Investigate
INVERSE-SQUARE RULE 
FGravity = 1 d2

8. Physics Talk (p385): Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation
Earth’s Gravitational Field is EVERYWHERE!!!
1st object (Earth) = source of the field
2nd object (Penny) = the response/test object
Gravitational Lines 
Direction of force on mass toward center of Earth
Acceleration due to gravity is greater closer to Earth, weaker as you move farther away
They are everywhere and beyond!!!

9. Physics Talk (p385): Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation
2. The Inverse-Square Relationship
The force of gravity between two objects decreases by the square of the distance between them
EXAMPLE If distance is tripled (×3), then the force is 1/32 or 1/9 the original force
As an object moves AWAY from Earth,
the force of gravity DECREASES drastically!!!

10. Physics Talk (p385): Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation
Universal Gravitation  all objects have MASS and Earth attracts ALL objects
EXAMPLE an apple falls from a tree
the Moon in outer space
Gravity  the force of attraction between two bodies due to their masses
***The force of gravity is quite weak/small***

11. Physics Talk (p385): Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation
ALL bodies with MASS attract all other bodies with MASS
The force of gravity is DIRECTLY proportional to the 2 masses
EXAMPLE larger the mass, stronger the gravity
smaller the mass, weaker the gravity
c) The force of gravity is INVERSELY related to the distance between the 2 masses
EXAMPLE closer the distance, stronger the gravity
greater the distance, weaker the gravity

12. Checking Up (p387)
The direction of the gravitational field in the classroom is _____.
The gravitational field is strongest where the lines are _____.
If you triple the distance between masses, the force becomes _____ the strength of the original force.
The force of _____ holds the Moon in orbit around Earth.
The shape of the orbits of the planets around the Sun is approximately an _____.

13. PTG (p390)
1. If the distance is doubled, the force will be reduced by _____, therefore it will be ___N. 2a) Doubling the distance would reduce the force by a factor of 1/22, so the force would be _____. 2b) Tripling the distance would reduce the force by a factor of _____. 2c) Increasing the distance by a factor of 4 would reduce the force by a factor of _____.

14. PTG (p390)
4. The force of gravity at the top and bottom of a roller-coaster ride is essentially _____. 5a) _____ is closer to the Moon. 5b) Because the water is closer, it has a slightly _____ force of gravity acting on it.

7. Since force of gravity = 1/ distance2, the force would be _____. a) b) c) d) 8. Since force of gravity = mass × mass, the force would be _____. a) b) c) d)
