Gravity and Mass - Practice - Quiz Questions

Test your understanding of the gravity formula G=mg and the concept of mass through the following exercises.

1. Near the Earth's surface, g ≈ 9.8N/kg. Which of the following statements about this constant is correct?

A. 1kg equals 9.8N
B. An object with a mass of 1kg experiences a gravitational force of 9.8N
C. An object has a mass of 1kg only when its gravity is 9.8N
D. It is equal everywhere in the universe

2. In the experiment, if the number of hook weights is increased, the reading on the spring dynamometer increases. This indicates:

A. The gravity of an object is directly proportional to its mass
B. The mass of the object determines the material of the spring
C. The more hook weights, the closer Earth is to it
D. Gravity is unrelated to mass

3. An astronaut flies from Earth to the Moon. Regarding his mass and gravity, the change is:

A. Mass decreases, gravity decreases
B. Mass remains unchanged, gravity decreases
C. Mass increases, gravity remains unchanged
D. Mass remains unchanged, gravity remains unchanged

4. A middle school student with a mass of 50kg experiences a gravitational force on Earth of approximately:

A. 50N
B. 500kg
C. 490N
D. 5N

5. True or False: In the graph of the relationship between gravity and mass (G-m graph), the graph is a straight line passing through the origin.

True
False

6. Suppose you measure that an object with a mass of 2.5kg experiences a gravitational force of 24.5N. Then the gravitational acceleration g at that location is approximately:

A. 9.8 N/kg
B. 10 N/kg
C. 12.25 N/kg
D. 0.1 N/kg

7. In the G-m graph, what does the slope of the line represent?

A. The density of the object
B. Gravitational acceleration g
C. The extension of the spring
D. The volume of the object

8. An astronaut lifting a 100kg boulder on the Moon is much easier than on Earth because:

A. The mass of the boulder decreases on the Moon
B. The gravity of the boulder decreases on the Moon
C. The astronaut's strength increases
D. There is no air resistance on the Moon
