  1. Name________________ Period___________ • How does inertia work in an orbiting moon? • How does gravity work in an orbiting moon? • What if gravity stopped working? Where would the moon go? • Is gravity strong enough to capture passing moons? • How does gravity work (Einstein’s General Relativity.) • Describe a ball on a sheet. • What happens to the sheet when a heavy ball is put on it? • What happens when a light ball is added? • Which moves towards which? • Why does one fall to the other? • What does the sheet represent? • What is a warp in the sheet? • What is gravity? • Gravity is a ______ that pulls __________________. • Things falling on Earth • What part of the Earth do things fall towards? • Drop a book and a pencil. Do bigger things fall faster? • Drop a heavy thing and a light thing. Do heavy things fall faster? • Drop a sheet of paper & a book. Why does the sheet fall differently? • Flick a folded card with a penny on each side. Which hit the floor first, he flicked one or the dropped one? • What is Inertia (Newton’s First law)? • Objects in motion ________________________________. • How does this relate to planets or moons in motion? • What is an orbit? • What force pulls between the Earth and the Moon?
