What is mass?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, usually measured in grams or kilograms.

Front

What is gravity?

Back

Gravity is the force that pulls objects toward each other, such as the force that pulls us toward the Earth.

Front

What happens when you add more mass to an object?

Back

Adding more mass increases the gravitational force acting on that object.

Front

What is a complete circuit?

Back

A complete circuit is a closed loop that allows electricity to flow, including a power source, wires, and a load.

Front

What are seasons?

Back

Seasons are periods of the year characterized by specific weather conditions, caused by the tilt of the Earth's axis and its orbit around the sun.

Front

What is friction?

Back

Friction is the force that opposes the motion of an object when it comes into contact with another surface.

Front

Which surface has the least friction?

Back

Smooth surfaces, like wax paper or smooth wood, typically have less friction compared to rough surfaces.

Front

What is the effect of friction on movement?

Back

Friction can slow down or stop the movement of objects, making it harder to slide or push them.

Front

What is the role of the sun in the solar system?

Back

The sun is the central star of our solar system, providing light and heat that sustain life on Earth.

Front

What are tides?

Back

Tides are the rise and fall of sea levels caused by the gravitational forces of the moon and the sun.
