Introduction to Force Fields

The gravitational force ______________ with an

increasing distance between the two objects.

• Increases

• Decreases

• Stays the same

Magnetic forces _____________ when there is more distance between two objects.

• Increases

• Decreases

• Stays the same

Every object exerts a gravitational force on every other object with ________.

• mass

• field

• gravity

• distance

If you want to increase or strengthen the force of gravity, electricity, or magnetism what could you do?

• decrease the distance between the objects (closer)

• increase the distance between the objects (farther)

• decrease the size of the objects (smaller)

What is the area called between objects that are not touching but exert a force?

• Space

• Field

• Current

• Pole

In the fields, are the objects touching/in contact when exerting force on one another?

• Yes, they are touching.

• No, they are not touching.

Electric forces ________ when there is less distance between two objects.

• increase

• decrease

• stays the same

Select all of the forces at a distance

• Friction

• Gravity

• Electric

• Drag

• Magnetic
