Provider:

PBS

Summary:

Students learn about the relationship between mass, weight, and gravity, and apply their knowledge to determine their weight on other planets

Description:

"Students will demonstrate the ability to apply the use of decimals, fractions, ratios, and proportions to situations based upon given information about planets in the solar system. Students will use a chart to compute their weight on different planets and the sun. Students also need a scale to measure their current weight. If you teach students for whom weight is a sensitive subject, modify the activity so that it focuses on the weight of a car, for example, or some other object."
