Gravitation Concept Map: Key Ideas and Structure
A gravitation concept map shows how the attractive force between masses connects to its main ideas. Gravitation is described by Newton's law of universal gravitation, which states that every pair of masses attracts with a force proportional to the product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. Maps usually branch from this law into weight, free fall, orbits and gravitational potential energy.
- Newton's law: force depends on both masses and distance squared
- Weight: the force of gravity on an object near Earth's surface
- Free fall: motion under gravity alone, with acceleration g
- Orbits: circular and elliptical paths set by gravity and speed
- Potential energy: energy stored by objects within a gravitational field
Use the map to revise the relationships between mass, distance and force before an exam. For a map tailored to your own course notes, create one with CogniGuide.

Gravitation Concept Map Questions
Answers on the topic and on making your own map.
What is the universal law of gravitation?
It states that every mass attracts every other mass with a force proportional to the product of the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers. The constant G sets the strength of the force.
How does distance affect gravitational force?
Force falls off with the square of the distance. Doubling the distance between two masses reduces the force to one quarter of its original value.
Which files can I use to make my map?
You can upload PDF, Word (DOCX), PowerPoint (PPTX), text or Markdown files, or images. You can also just type a topic name.
Can I turn my gravitation map into a quiz?
Yes. Once the map is built, you can turn it into a quiz to test yourself on the branches. The free plan allows 5 creations a week.
