Gravity 1
Does gravity act upon all objects equally, or do the properties (like mass, shape) of the objects come into play? Does the position of an object affect its potential energy?
Does gravity act upon all objects equally, or do the properties (like mass, shape) of the objects come into play? Does the position of an object affect its potential energy?
Essential Questions:
- How does gravity pull on all masses and what affect does it have on the masses?
- Where do falling objects get their energy?
