1 How do objects move under the influence of gravity?
Gravity and Motion How do objects move under the influence of gravity?

2 What is Gravity? Gravity is a force of attraction between objects due to their mass size. Mass depicts gravitational force

3 Gravity is a pulling force

4 Weight Weight is a measurement of the gravitational pull on an objects mass Weight in NOT constant Mass is constant

5 Your Weight on other planets
When weight changes, does your mass?

6 What determines the force of gravity?
Gravitational pull depends on distance and mass of an object

7 Keeping objects in orbit
Free fall: when gravity is the only force acting on an object Orbit – when an object travels around another object in space. gravity and inertia working together you have an orbit

8 Gravity and Inertia

9 Objects fall at the same speed
All mass sizes fall at the same speed. file:///C:/Users/bogat/Downloads/Falling_Objects.asf file:///C:/Users/bogat/Downloads/Mass_and_Weight.asf
