1 The Earth exerts a (1) pulling force on
every object on or around it.
This force is called (2) force of gravity. It
pulls objects towards the (3) centre of
the Earth.
2 The (4) weight of an
object on the Earth is the force of gravity exerted by the Earth on the object.
It can be different when it is measured on different (5) celestial bodies. Its
unit is (6) newton.
3 The (7) mass of an
object is the amount of matter it contains. It is (8) the same in
all places. Its unit is grams (g).
4 A 50 kg boy is weighing himself on planet X and the reading is 200N.
His mass on planet X is
(9) 50 kg and is (10) 50 kg on the Earth. The force of gravity exerted by planet X
on him is (11) 200 N. The force of gravity of planet X is (12) smaller (larger/smaller) than that of the Earth. His
weight on planet X is (13) smaller than his weight on the Earth.
(Hint:
1kg = 10N on the Earth)
