How Does Mass And Distance Affect Gravity

The lesson features a video that explains what mass is and what makes up earth s mass.

The presentation explains how mass and distance affect gravitational attraction. This relationship was first published by sir issac newton. The force of gravity between two objects is determined by the mass of each object and the distance between their centers. F frac g m1m2 r 2 where g is the constant 6 7 times 10 11 nm 2 kg 2 and r is the distance in meters betwee.

Why do mass and distance affect gravity. Through the slideshow students learn that gravity is the force that pulls objects toward each other. Gravity is a fundamental underlying force in the universe.
