Gravity Gravity
2
As a review..... A force is a push or pull, or any action that has the ability to change motion.
3
Inertia Resistance of any physical object to any change (motion, speed, velocity, rest). It is a tendency for an object to travel in a straight line at a constant velocity
4
Force=mass x acceleration
Momentum = Force Calculating the force of an object we need its Mass and acceleration Force=mass x acceleration F= m x a
5
Calculating Acceleration
acceleration = Vf-Vi time like = mph/seconds
6
1) Gravity Force of attraction between objects due to their masses.
Gravity occurs no matter the size of the objects
7
Gravity has Rules Gravitational force is small between objects with small masses Force is larger between objects with large masses. If distance is increased, gravity will decrease.
8
All objects have gravity
Bigger objects have a stronger gravitational force Closer objects have a stronger gravitational force
9
Mass vs. Weight The force of gravity on an object is called weight.
(Mass = how much stuff an object is made of) (Weight = the force of gravity pulling on that stuff)
10
Weight A 10-kilogram rock has a mass of 10 kilograms no matter where it is in the universe. A 10-kilogram rock’s weight however, can vary greatly depending on where it is.
11
Terminal velocity Terminal velocity = point you stop accelerating to earth as you fall down Gravity accelerates you towards the earth but the air pushes you back up creating drag. Terminal velocity= 54 meters/second
