Re: Inertial vs gravitational mass



Students understand a relationship HAS to exist; and yet, what is the
rationale?

Congratulations on finding a way to get your students to wonder and talk
about such things. That would be an exciting conversation to overhear. Are
you talking about the relationship between occultation period and mass or
relationship between gravitational mass and inertial mass?
