Which has a greater mass than earth the sun or moon?
Of course, the Sun. Hope I helped!
Even though the sun has a greater mass than earth the moon orbits earth because it's what to earth then to the sun?
It is closer
Is the gravitational force of the sun is greater than that of Earth?
The gravitational force of the sun is many thousands of times greater than that of Earth. This is due to the enormous difference in mass between the two.
Is the sun mass bigger mass than earth mass?
Yes. The mass of the sun is about 333,000 times that of Earth.
Is the sun earths satellite?
No. The mass of the sun is much larger than the mass of the earth, so the earth is regarded as orbiting around the sun.
Is the earths mass greater than the sun?
No, it is only a tiny fraction. The sun's mass is roughly 330,000 times greater than the Earth.
Do the sun have a greater mass than earth?
Yes, Sun is way more bigger than Earth. Sun consist of 99% of all mass in Solar System.

Is the sun's mass greater or less than Earth's?
The Sun has 332,900 more mass than the Earth.If it was the other way around, we would be in deep trouble!!
Does the sun or earth have a stronger gravitional pull?
The sun because it has more mass. The greater the mass, the greater the gravitational pull.
How does newtons law of universal gravitational apply to earth and the moon?
If it were not for the Earth's pull of gravity the moon would fly away from the Earth. The moon's pull of gravity on the Earth causes the tides.
What do you think revolves the earth around the sun or the sun around the earth?
I think they both revolve around their common center of mass. Of course, since the sun's mass is so much greater than the Earth's their common center of mass is inside the sun, and it appears almost as if the Earth revolves around a stationary sun.
What are two reasons that the pull of gravity between mars and the sun is less than the pull of gravity between earth and the sun?
1. The earth has greater mass 2. the earth is closer to the sun
Is the sun mass bigger mass than earth mass?
Yes. The mass of the sun is about 333,000 times that of Earth.
Can the sun orbit the earth?
No. When one body is much more massive than the other, the lighter body (earth) orbits the heavier body (sun). Greater mass wins. The sun's mass is about 2 x 1030 kg. The earth's mass is about 6 x 1024 kg. Therefore the sun is about 300,000 times as massive as earth. Technically, it's most correct to say that both the Sun and the Earth orbit their common center of mass, but because the Sun is so much more massive than the Earth, the common center of mass is a point that's still within the Sun.
