  6. 13. This scientist measured the gravitational force between two objects.
  7. 14. This law states that an imaginary line from the Sun to a planet sweeps out equal areas in equal time intervals. (3 word answer)
  8. 16. The inward force that keeps an object moving in a circular path. (2 word answer)
  9. 17. The tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion.

  1. 1. This law states that the square of the ratio of the periods of any two planets revolving about the Sun is equal to the cube of the ratio of their average distances from the Sun. (3 word answer)
  2. 2. All objects are surrounded by this and it affects the motions of other objects.
  3. 4. A push or pull that can change an object's motion.

  5. 9. The force of attraction between all objects that have a mass.
  6. 10. Mass as used in the law of universal gravitation is a quantity that measures an object's response to gravitational force. (2 word answer)
  7. 12. The rate at which velocity changes due to gravity.
  8. 15. An object that orbits a planet or larger body.
  9. 18. The path that one object follows as it moves around another object.
