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

Why do astronauts appear weightless despite being near the Earth?

This online article delves into our the sun and planets were formed.

Basics of gravity and the Law of Universal Gravitation.

These four short online lessons will cover the following:

• The planets of the solar system
• Planet orbits in the solar system
• Gravity in the solar system
• Inner vs outer planets

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.

The particle model of matter is one of the most useful scientific models because it describes matter in all three states. Understanding how the particles of matter behave is vital if we hope to understand science!

The model also helps us to understand what happens to the particles when matter changes from one state to another.

In this unit, you will explore the three phases of matter and then look at the properties and differences between them. You will explore their shape, volume, and kinetic energy.

This short online lesson discusses the planet Jupiter.

This short online lesson explores the planet Mars.
