Gravity and Weight

In this lesson, you’ll learn about an invisible force called gravity. We’ll start by dropping a watermelon and an egg off of a tall bridge to create our own version of Galileo’s famous gravity experiment. Then, we’ll see whether a feather will always fall slower than a ball. After that, we’ll talk about how gravity works on Earth and what it’s like on other planets.

What you’ll learn:

• How gravity works
• How gravity affects objects of different sizes and weights
• The difference between weight and mass
