LESSON 1
Gravity and Friction
Did you know?
Friction is a contact force between two surfaces that are touching. If the surfaces
slide against each other with little resistance, the force of friction is weak. Only a
weak force is needed to make the object move. If the surfaces slide against each
other with a strong resistance, then the force of friction is strong, and a stronger
force will be required to make the objects move.
For this activity, you will need a small object that you can slide across a surface, such as a
bottle cap or a coin. You will also need a ruler or a measuring tape and a pencil.

1. Locate four flat surfaces in or around your home that would exert different amounts
of friction on a sliding object. Record the surfaces in the Surface column. Examples of
surfaces include a carpeted floor, a tile floor, and a glass tabletop.
2. Predict how much friction each surface will exert on an object sliding across it. In the
Prediction column, rank the surfaces from 1 to 4. Write 1 for the surface you expect to
exert the most friction and 4 for the surface you expect to exert the least.
3. Push the object across the first surface three different times. Use the ruler to measure
the distance it slides during each trial and record each distance in the table. Try to
apply the same amount of force each time. Repeat this step for each surface.
4. Which surface exerted the most friction on the object? How do you know?
5. Did you correctly predict which surface would exert the most and least friction on the
object? Explain.

LESSON 1
Force at a Distance
Lobsters know their way home, and
researchers who studied lobster behavior
believe it is due to Earth’s magnetic field.
Earth’s Magnetic Field
Scientists think that Earth’s magnetic
field is produced by the movement of
electric charges in Earth’s core. The core is
mostly iron and nickel; the inner core is
solid because of the great pressure at that
level, but in the outer core, the metals are
liquid because there is less pressure. As
Earth rotates, the liquid in the core flows
and electric charges move, creating the
magnetic field. As the field travels outward
through the rest of Earth’s interior, the field
lines extend from Earth near Antarctica and
enter again near Canada.
Earth’s magnetic field acts like a giant
bar magnet. It has two poles—north and
south. When you put unlike poles together,
you can feel magnetic attraction. Like poles
of a bar magnet repel each other.
In the northern hemisphere, when a
compass needle points north, we use it as a
tool to find a direction. However, because
the north-pointing magnetism of the
compass needle can be attracted only by
the south pole of a magnet, the magnetic
pole in the northern hemisphere has a
south polarity. It follows that magnetic
north is at the geographic South Pole.
Going Home
Results of the lobster-behavior study
are illustrated below. Researchers moved
one group of lobsters (squares) from their
home at catch site 1 to the test site
southwest of their home. They moved
another group (circles) from their home at
catch site 2 to the test site that was
northeast of their home.
The lobsters were placed in opaque
containers and transported by boat along
circuitous routes of up to 30 km; then they
were released at the test site. The next day,
the lobsters were discovered positioned
facing the catch site and walking in the
direction indicated in the figure.
The researchers concluded that their
results demonstrated that an invertebrate
animal is capable of true navigation based
upon Earth’s magnetic field.
Applying Critical-Thinking Skills
Directions: Answer each question.
1. Relate Look up pictures of the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) and the Aurora
Australis (Southern Lights). What are they? Why do they occur?
2. Interpret In which directions were the CS1 and CS2 lobsters walking on the second
day of the lobster study?
