Gravity & Mass Exploration- Activity: Finding WEIGHT & JUMP distances in space!
HOW DOES GRAVITY AFFECT YOU ON OTHER PLANETS?In this engaging activity, students explore how gravity would affect their weight and how far they could jump on other planets (and the Moon). Students first use their weight (or because weight can be a tricky topic the weight of an astronaut listed) to find out how gravity changes weight on other planets (and the Moon). They then find out how far they can jump on Earth by doing a STANDING BROAD JUMP. With this distance they will determine how far tha
