Grade 7 agenda:

Homework:

 

Do Now:

Copy this equation and Respond to these questions:

  1. How will gravitational force change is one or both of the masses are increased?

  2. How will gravitational force change if the distance is increased?

  3. Is gravitational force directly or inversely proportional to mass?

  4. Is gravitational force directly or inversely proportional to distance?

m = mass object 1, m2 = mass object 2, d = distance between objects, G = gravitational constant

m = mass object 1, m2 = mass object 2, d = distance between objects, G = gravitational constant

 

Lesson:

Pass back and review work:

  • Gravity sentence frames

  • Earth's Interior Graph

Go over final systems and Convection Cycles Test.

  • Release results

  • Review and discuss

Discussing the nature of gravity - a mathematical perspective.

  • The equation

  • The effect of mass

  • the effect of distance

  • Big "G" -  a really small number

    • 6.673×10−11 N·(m/kg)2
