Newton's Laws
100
The largest planet
What is Jupiter
100
Gravity depends on these two things
What are mass and distance
100
When the tidal range is the largest
What is a Spring Tide?
100
The definition of mass
What is the amount of matter in an object.
100
What did Newton do?
He DID NOT discover gravity - he explained how it worked
200
The 2nd planet from the Sun
What is Venus
200
The further you get from an object the _____ gravity you feel
What is less
200
When the tidal range is the smallest
What is a Neap Tide?
200
How mass affects gravity
What is the more mass you have, the more gravity you have and feel
200
Describe the Law of Inertia
What is an object that is moving will keep moving and an object that is still will remain still until they are acted upon by a force.
300
Two planets with the same size
What are Neptune & Uranus or Earth & Venus
300
The measure of the distance covered in a certain amount of time
What is velocity?
300
When Neap Tides can occur
What are 1st & 3rd Quarter Moons?
300
The object in our Solar system with the most mass
What is the Sun?
300
Describe the Law of Resultant Force
What is a force will change an object's direction and speed.
400
The planet with the most moons & gravity
What is Jupiter
400
The measure of the change in speed
What is acceleration
400
When Spring Tides can occur
What are Full & New Moons?
400
How does mass look on another planet?
Mass does not change. It is the same everywhere. It does not depend on location - it is how much stuff an object contains.
400
How did Newton "discover" gravity?
He was supposedly sitting in an apple orchard and an apple fell on him
500
The planet that rotates backwards
What is Uranus
500
Mass times acceleration
What is force
500
Why we experience tides
What is the Sun and Moon's gravitational pull on the Earth's large bodies of water?
500
The relationship between mass and weight
What is weight is mass times 9.81 m/s squared (acceleration due to gravity)
500
Everything has gravity. Tell me what this is.
