Q

Gravity has a force of pulling two what together?

A

Gravity has a force of pulling two different objects together

17
Q

The bigger the object the bigger the what?

A

The bigger the object the bigger the gravitational pull

18
Q

In space what would your weight be?

19
Q

What does not change in space?

A

Your mass does not change in space

20
Q

What is the formula for speed?

A

Speed = distance / times

21
Q

What is the time formula?

A

Time = distance/speed

22
Q

What is the distance formula?

A

Distance = speed * time

23
Q

Why does your maths not change in space?

A

Your master is not change because you haven’t taken any stuff away from yourself

24
Q

Does your weight change in space?

A

Yes because the gravitational pull varies on each planet

25
What is a pivot?
A pivot turns around but doesn’t move place
26
The further away from the pivot you get what is greater?
The further away from the pivot the greater the turning force (moment)
27
What is the formula for turning force (moment)?
T.F (moment) = force * distance from pivot
28
What is the formula for distance from pivot?
Distance from pivot = T.F (moment)/force
29
What is the formula for force?
Force = T.F (moment)/distance from pivot
30
The smaller surface area the what pressure?
Smaller surface area the higher the pressure
31
The Large surface area is what pressure?
The larger the surface area to lower the pressure
32
The formula for pressure?
Pressure = force/area
33
The formula for force?
Force = pressure* area
34
The formula for area?
Area = force/pressure
35
What is the T.F (moment) affected by?
The size of the force (weight) | The distance from the pivot
36
The lower down to earth and get the atmospheric pressure is what?
The lower down to earth and get the atmospheric pressure is higher
37
In an aeroplane the air pressure is a lot lower explain this?
The pressure in an aeroplane is a lot lower because you are higher from the earth
