19 September 2013 4th Hour Technology and Success 6th Grade Warmup

The newton (symbol: N) is the International System of Units (SI) derived unit of force. It is named after Isaac Newton in recognition of his work on classical mechanics, specifically Newton's second law of motion.

To will investigate the connection between weight, mass, the size of a planet, and gravitational force.

We will complete the experiment together.

If you do not have a username or password I will demonstrate how to complete an account to the whole class.  You should have created an account when we reviewed usernames and passwords.  When we have completed the experiment together answer the questions, "Why would you weight less on Mars?"

    there is know gravity on mars.that means there is no pull. so u wight lees then u do.

    why do i weigh less on the moon then on earth.

    I weigh less than i do on earth is because the gravity on the moon doesnt pull down on you. it also is in outerspace so there is barly any graity pulling you down.

    Mars.

    You would weight less on mars. Your would way less on mars because mars is smaller than earth.There for it has smaller gravitational pull . It has less newtons.

    Mars Weight

    There are a couple of reasons I would weigh less on Mars. First of all, the smaller the plant, the less weight. Also, Mars is smaller than earth.

    Mars weight

    I would weigh less on Mars. There is less gravitational pull on Mars. The reason is because Mars is a lot smaller than Earth.

    why do i weigh less on mars


    The reason you weigh less is because gravity. Gravity pulls you to the ground making weight. Weight is the pull of gravity to the earth

    why i would weigh less on mars

    Mars has less gravity than earth does. That is why.

    Mars

    I would weigh more on Mars because Mars it littler than Earth. Because Mars is littler then Earth because of the gravitational pull. Mars also has newtons.

    Why do i weigh less on the moon?

    I weigh less on the moon because the moon is smaller than the earth. So the gravity on earth is not as light as the gravity on the moon.The gravity pulling down on earth is not as light as the pull on the moon.

    Weight on mars

    You would weigh less on mars because thers less mass.It seems hard to beilevie. but its true

    why I would weigh less on Mars.
    I weigh less on Mars because Mars is smaller than Earth.Also because Mars doesn't have any gravity.

    Weight on Mars

    I would weigh less on mars then on Earth because Earth has a bigger gravitational pole. The reason this is is because Earth is bigger than Mars. That is why you would weigh less on mars than Earth.

    I would weigh less on mars because gravity.Then the gravity pulls down so you weigh less.

    Why would you be lighter on mars?

    You would be lighter on mars because there is less magnitisuim on mars than on Earth. like if you put water melon on mars would way less. If you put the watermelon on Jupiter it would be way heavier.

  15. DAMIEN.L i weigh less on te moon because the mass is smaller also its smaller than earth

  16. why would we weigh less on mars?
    we would weigh less on mars because mars is alot smaller than earth.Mars also has less mas than earth dose.Therfor we would weigh less on earth.

    You weigh less on Mars because it smaller then Earth and it has a weaker gravitational pull. It also does not have as much newtons.
