Question 9 of 10intermediate✨ CreateEssay5 marks

Imagine a scenario where the gravity disappears. Develop a story. Create a cartoon strip to present your story.

Correct Answer

In a world without gravity, objects would no longer be pulled toward Earth.

People would float freely in the air, unable to walk on the ground. Water would form floating spheres instead of flowing downward.

Trees and plants would grow in all directions without gravity guiding their roots down and stems up. Buildings and structures would need to be anchored to prevent them from drifting away.

Rain would not fall from clouds. The Moon would drift away from Earth since gravitational attraction keeps it in orbit.

Daily activities like eating, drinking, and sleeping would require completely new methods and tools.

Explanation

The chapter explains that gravitational force 'is always an attractive force' and 'the force with which the Earth attracts objects towards itself is called the gravitational force.' Without this force, all the phenomena described above would occur.
