I can engage in argument from evidence to support the claim that gravitational interactions within a system are attractive and dependent upon the masses of interacting objects.
Task
Did you know that the astronauts on the moon wore space suits that weighed 310 pounds? That is a lot of weight! How were they able to move around with that much weight? In this lesson, you will observe and discuss the effects of gravity on the moon and other locations in the galaxy.
Instructions
1. Watch the two videos about astronauts moving on the moon.
3. Then, in Part II make predictions and analyze the impact mass has on gravity by the calculation on this websiteLinks to an external site..
4. Lastly, in Part III, follow the instructions on the assignment to measure your long jump on earth and then calculate how far you would jump on other planets, moons, and stars.
5. Write a hypothesis about gravity, mass, and movement on the moon
6. Once completed, click submit.
