New Worksheet - Science - Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation

1. The gravitational force between two objects (mass 1 = 50 kg, mass 2 = 25 kg) is measured when the objects are 15 centimeters apart. The masses are then changed to mass 1 = 5 kg, mass 2 = 50 kg, and the distance between them is increased to 30 cm. How does the gravitational attraction compare to the first one that was measured?
Answer: _______________________

2. The gravitational force between two objects (mass 1 = 100 kg, mass 2 = 35 kg) is measured when the objects are 40 centimeters apart. The masses are then changed to mass 1 = 25 kg, mass 2 = 5 kg, and the distance between them is changed to 160 cm. How does the gravitational attraction compare to the first one that was measured?
Answer: _______________________

3. The gravitational force between two objects (mass 1 = 55 kg, mass 2 = 60 kg) is measured when the objects are 40 centimeters apart. The masses are then changed to mass 1 = 5 kg, mass 2 = 120 kg, and the distance between them is changed to 60 cm. How does the gravitational attraction compare to the first one that was measured?
Answer: _______________________

4. The gravitational force between two objects (mass 1 = 30 kg, mass 2 = 5 kg) is measured when the objects are 25 centimeters apart. The masses are then changed to mass 1 = 90 kg, mass 2 = 15 kg, and the distance between them is changed to 75 cm. How does the gravitational attraction compare to the first one that was measured?
Answer: _______________________

5. The gravitational force between two objects (mass 1 = 15 kg, mass 2 = 7 kg) is measured when the objects are 32 centimeters apart. The masses are then changed to mass 1 = 60 kg, mass 2 = 49 kg, and the distance between them is changed to 4 cm. How does the gravitational attraction compare to the first one that was measured?
Answer: _______________________

6. The gravitational force between two objects (mass 1 = 2 kg, mass 2 = 10 kg) is measured when the objects are 5 centimeters apart. The masses are then changed to mass 1 = 8 kg, mass 2 = 40 kg, and the distance between them is changed to 25 cm. How does the gravitational attraction compare to the first one that was measured?
Answer: _______________________

7. The gravitational force between two objects (mass 1 = 90 kg, mass 2 = 15 kg) is measured when the objects are 75 centimeters apart. The masses are then changed to mass 1 = 45 kg, mass 2 = 5 kg, and the distance between them is changed to 15 cm. How does the gravitational attraction compare to the first one that was measured?
Answer: _______________________

8. The gravitational force between two objects (mass 1 = 20 kg, mass 2 = 10 kg) is measured when the objects are 16 centimeters apart. The masses are then changed to mass 1 = 60 kg, mass 2 = 5 kg, and the distance between them is changed to 4 cm. How does the gravitational attraction compare to the first one that was measured?
Answer: _______________________

9. The gravitational force between two objects (mass 1 = 5 kg, mass 2 = 15 kg) is measured when the objects are 30 centimeters apart. The masses are then changed to mass 1 = 60 kg, mass 2 = 45 kg, and the distance between them is changed to 3 cm. How does the gravitational attraction compare to the first one that was measured?
Answer: _______________________

10. The gravitational force between two objects (mass 1 = 25 kg, mass 2 = 65 kg) is measured when the objects are 80 centimeters apart. The masses are then changed to mass 1 = 50 kg, mass 2 = 5 kg, and the distance between them is changed to 20 cm. How does the gravitational attraction compare to the first one that was measured?
