Name

Inferring Effects of Gravity

Procedure

1. Suppose you are a crane operator who is sent to Mars to help build a Mars

colony.

2. You know that your crane can lift 44,500 N on Earth and Mars, but the

gravity on Mars is only 40 percent of Earth¡¯s gravity.

3. Determine how much mass your crane could lift on Earth and Mars.

Analysis

1. How can what you have discovered be an advantage over construction on Earth?

Copyright ? Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, a division of the McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

2. How might construction advantages change the overall design of the Mars colony?
