Study Notes
Gravity and Mass
- Gravity is the force of attraction between any two masses, bodies, or particles
- Mass is defined as the amount of matter determined by its volume and density
- Objects with large mass have a relatively weak gravitational force, while those with small mass have a strong force
- The force of gravity, or gravitational force, pushes objects with mass towards each other, not away from each other (correcting the provided statement)
- Gravity is the Earth's strong attracting force on objects and people on its surface
