Gravity

Kia ora, today we are answering questions about gravity. For this we have to answer question on our blog so we can post it straight away so our teacher can see what we have done. We have to explain our answers properly and make it worth the time. 

Is gravity the same in all planets? Gravity holds our world together. Gravity is a little stronger in places with more mass  underground than in places with less mass. No they are not the same in very planet such as Mercury, Moon, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. No it is not the same because their are different sizes to different planets.  

How is gravity related to mass? Objects with more mass have more gravityGravity  gets weak with distance. So  the closer objects are to each other the bigger and stronger their gravitational pull is. Earth's gravity comes from all its mass. Mass is  a large number of objects crowed together and how much you weigh. 

Calculate you weight on other planets in your solar system. I weigh 53 kg and I would weigh most on Jupiter. On Jupiter 120.0 kg. I would weigh less on on Mercury  and mars on Mercury I weigh 20  kg.

here is an awesome websites you can play with because it is so fun and you can learn how much you weigh in different planets. Weight planet calculator 
How would your life be different if you lived on a planet with higher gravity? With lower gravity? With higher gravity you wouldn't run or walk and if you put on a suit you could be hard . For less gravity we would jump higher and you wouldn't survive that much our bones be weak. We need gravity to keep us together.

 2 Problems with going to Jupiter:

There is no oxygen on Jupiter so you would need to bring a lot.
next is air conditions it is really hot in Jupiter so it would be best to bring a air conditioner.
