Contents
Outcomes
- Pupils can aprreciate that mass remains constant whilst weight changes when travelling the universe
- Pupils can use and rearrange the weight equation
Specification References
1.15 recall and use the relationship between weight, mass and g: Weight = mass x g, W = m x g
1.31 understand gravitational feild strength, g, and recall that it is different on other planets and the Moon from that on the Earth.
Starter
Main Body of Lesson
- Define difference between mass and weight. This is a good opportunity to use the small white boards. There is a brief powerpoint in Science Shared
- Interplanetary Can experiment. An updated sheet linked to the powerpoint is in Science Shared
- Video clip of moon experiments; link to Newton's Laws of Gravitation. If time, then perform the guinea and feather experiment.
