1.2 Gravity

I can apply my knowledge of gravitational fields to explain the difference between mass and weight and to state that Earth’s gravitational field strength is 10 N/kg.

EXTEND >>>

I can extend my knowledge to explain what affects the strength of a gravitational field.

CONCEPT 3

GRAVITY AROUND THE SOLAR SYSTEM

KNOW >

I know how to calculate the weight of an object on Earth using the equation:
W = m x g

APPLY >>

I can apply the equation W = m x g to calculate mass or gravitational field strength.

EXTEND >>>

I can extend my knowledge of gravitational fields to apply the equation W = m x g to other bodies in our solar system.

FORCES AND FORCE DIAGRAMS

KNOW >

I know that a force is either a push or a pull and is measured in newtons (N).

APPLY >>

I can apply my knowledge of forces to draw and label force diagrams.

EXTEND >>>

I can extend my knowledge of force diagrams to calculate the size of a resultant force on an object and state its resultant motion.
