This student sample was created to demonstrate understanding of California State 8th grade science standard 2d; Students know how to identify separately two or more forces acting on a single static object, including gravity, elastic forces due to tension or compression in matter, and friction. This is a short, two-minute video. Student narration is clear and simple.

Gravitational force is the constant force of attraction between the masses of two objects. The attraction between all objects and the Earth is called gravity. Weight is caused by gravity: it is the measurement of gravity's force (or pull) on an object's mass. Learn more about gravity with this cartoon animation from StudyJams. A short, self-checking quiz is also included with this link.

In this video Huckle and Lowly Worm learn about gravity. Gravity is a force on Earth that pulls things down. Throw a ball high in the air. Gravity won't let it stay there. Now we see why apples fall from the trees. We all would fly away without Earth's gravity. This is a good teaching resource for a thematic/science unit on gravity and Earth. Elementary students will enjoy this video (01:10).

Before doing this experiment, younger learner should have a firm grasp of what gravity is. This experiment shows how to defy gravity without adequately explaining gravity in relation to this experiment. The experiment shows how to make gravity-free water with a cup and cardboard. The words are on the screen as the narrator says them. Simple animation and easy-to understand narrative. (02:47)

In this Schoolhouse Rock video, students will learn basic concepts about gravity. Gravity is like a magnet deep in the ground. Some of the lyrics include the following: Down, down, down, down gravity. Helpin' wash the dishes And I drop a cup. Why does everything fall down Instead of up? Ridin' up a hill I spill And hit the ground.
Wish I could fall up instead of always falling down.Down, down, down, down. This is a fun teaching resource for introducing and/or reinforcing the concept of gravity in the classroom. (03:00)

In this video, teenage students will be introduced to "The Pull of Gravity" by Gae Polisner. Summary--Nick Gardner's life is falling apart. His dad is fat. Too fat. But Nick still doesn't know what to think when Dad leaves town to walk off the weight and pursue some destiny that doesn't seem to include the rest of the family. Meanwhile, The Scoot, Nick's best friend, is dying from an incurable disease. And Scooter's last wish is crazy: find his own long-lost father and return the signed first edition of Of Mice and Men that his father gave him before he took off.
Before Nick knows what's happening, he and the quirky Jaycee are off on an odyssey of their own to track down Scooter's dad—and to discover a little something about themselves, their friendship, and growing up in the process. This is a great resource for motivating upper grade readers. (01:32)

Mrs. Rice and her friends Sammy and Stinky help kids learn about Space. Songs about planets, stars, the moon, the sun, satellites, and gravity will be sung. This is a great resource to help reinforce important science skills in the classroom and would work well in conjunction with non-fiction texts on these topics. (09:34)

Lapse of gravity wave action from the Tama, Iowa KCCI-TV webcam on 6 May 2007. A gravity wave is a cloud form created by atmospheric standing waves. These waves are created as stable air flows over a moutain range, and can with er form above or in the lee of the range. As an air mass travels through the wave, it undergoes repeated uplife and descent. If there is enough moisture in the atmosphere, clouds will form at the crests of these waves. No narration. Run time 0:33.

Gravity exerts a powerful force on all of us -- relentlessly pulling us toward Earth's surface. Everything we do, from standing up and running to getting dressed and eating breakfast, requires us to expend energy, and much of that energy goes toward our struggle against gravity. However, despite the powerful force that gravity exerts, we take it for granted precisely because of its constancy. This interactive resource from the Exploratorium gives you the opportunity to imagine how other celestial bodies would affect your weight.

This was a Featured Video on YouTube. Although invisible, gravity is a complex force of nature that has an immeasurable impact on our everyday lives. Gravity and its variation in space are fundamental for every dynamic process on Earth's surface and in its interior. Improving our knowledge of how gravity affects these processes has practical benefits in today's changing world. (02:15)

Professor Lewin of MIT gives a lecture on perceived gravity. He emphasizes the difference between weight and mass. During the lecture he looks at several scenarios where weight changes, such as a person standing on a bathroom scale in an elevator. Lewin goes as far as jumping off of his desk while holding a water jug in his hand to show the weightlessness of the water jug in free fall. He then drops a home-made bathroom scale to demonstrate weightlessness during free fall. The lecture ends with Lewin showing his students a video of astronauts training for a zero gravity environment in an airplane (50:01).
