Make a claim for gravity acting between objects in the solar system due to mass.

The Earth revolves around the Sun because the Sun has more Mass.

All the planets revolve around the Sun because the Sun has the most mass.

The moon revolves around the Earth because the Earth has more mass.

Moons revolve around planets because planets have more mass.

The metal sphere aka Van de Graaf generator has a high electric charge. Why is the person's strands of hair REPELLING each other?

The hair is positively charged. Likes repel.

300

Name the particles in the picture and describe their charge.

Orange - Protons - Positive

Blue - Electrons - Negative

Green - Neutrons - No Charge

300

What causes a motor to turn faster?

More/thicker wire

More voltage/battery

More magnets

400

Two factors that affect Gravity's pull are ___ and ____.

Gravity increases when objects have ______, but decreases when objects have  ____.

Mass and Distance

more mass or are closer

less mass or further away

400

Two North Pole magnet ends will                     while a North Pole and a South Pole magnet will                    

Repel

Attract

400

Compare and contrast friction and induction.

Similar - both charge atoms, both move or gain electrons, both cause static electricity

Different - friction involves rubbing two objects together.  Induction involves no touch.

400

Atoms prefer to be ______, which means they have an equal number of ______ and ______. 

When they gain or lose an ________, they become a charged particle called an ion.

Neutral

Protons and Electrons

Electrons

400

What makes a generator create more electricity?

More motion/movement/mechanical energy or kinetic energy.

500

Jupiter has more gravity than Earth because ____.

Jupiter has more gravity than Earth so our weight would be                       

It has a larger mass.

greater on Jupiter.

500

One similarity between magnetism and gravity is ______.

One difference between magnetism and gravity is _____. 

Similarities - Both non-contact, both act across a distance, both stronger when objects are close together, both create a field

Differences - Magnetism only works on metal objects but gravity works on all objects; Magnetism can attract or repel but gravity can only attract; Birds can see the magnetic field but cannot see the gravitational field. 

500

Compare and contrast insulators and conductors.

Similarities - deal with charged atoms. Involve electricity. Involve the movement of electrons.

Differences - conductors have evenly spread out electrons. They move easily. Metal and water.  Insulators have unevenly spread out electrons. They do not move easily. Wood, plastic, rubber.

500

This ion has a ________ charge because _______.

Negative

It has more electrons than protons
