What is the acceleration due to gravity at the space station.

Why do astronauts appear weightless despite being near the Earth?

This video introduces you to the concept of ratios.

Basics of gravity and the Law of Universal Gravitation.

This unit is about how things move along a straight line or, more scientifically, how things move in one dimension. Examples of this would be the movement (motion) of cars along a straight road or of trains along straight railway tracks.

This YouTube video can help to get deeper understanding on solving ratio and proportion problems.

Outcomes

In this course you will learn about:

1. Ratio and rate.
2. Direct and indirect proportion.
3. Simple interest.

Speed necessary for the space station to stay in orbit.

Viewing g as the value of Earth's gravitational field near the surface rather than the acceleration due to gravity near Earth's surface for an object in freefall.
