Yes or No?

In this decision-based worksheet, students determine whether gravity is acting in ten described scenarios-from a falling feather to a floating astronaut. Each situation tests students’ conceptual grasp of gravitational influence and its limits. Learners respond with “YES” or “NO” and then justify one of each with written explanations, promoting scientific reasoning. The format strengthens critical thinking, reading comprehension, and the ability to apply abstract science concepts to everyday examples. It fosters engagement by making gravitational science tangible and relatable.
