This week in Science (seven)

This week we learned about orbits, dropping objects, and the word that should never be spoken GRAVITY.  We learned that every object accelerates at the same rate, this is because the earth pulls an object at the same amount as the mass of that object.  The earth's force will be equal to the mass of an object at every time.  Also we learned that if an object, for example the moon, is being being pulled towards the earth but it wants to go in the path it is currently traveling, it will go in the middle of these two directions.
