Gravitational Interactions Study Notes

what are the factors that determine gravitaional force?

mass and weight

what is a gravitational force?

it is an invisible pulling force between. two objects, the strength of a gravitationoal force depends on the objects mass, the more mass and object has the greater its gravitational force is.

example of earth gravitational force

an apple falling towards the surafece of the earth from an apple tree ( gravity pulls it towards the surface )

what is mass?

an amount of matter in an object, its messured in kilograms.

What are the factors that determine gravitational force?

Gravitational force is determined by the masses of the objects and the distance between them.

What is mass?

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, typically measured in kilograms.

What is weight?

Weight is the force exerted by gravity on an object, calculated as mass times the acceleration due to gravity (W = m × g).

What does CER stand for in scientific writing?

CER stands for Claim, Evidence, and Reasoning, which is a framework used to structure scientific explanations.

What is a quality Claim in CER?

A quality Claim is a clear and concise statement that answers a specific question or addresses a problem based on observations.

What is considered quality Evidence in CER?

Quality Evidence consists of relevant data and facts that support the Claim, often derived from experiments or reliable sources.

What constitutes effective Reasoning in CER?

Effective Reasoning links the Claim and Evidence together,
