The sun because it has more mass. The greater the mass, the greater the gravitational pull.

What is the gravitional pull on the Earth in miles exerted by other planets. How much closer do we get to the sun when Earth is close to Venus as they pass?
well look in the damn dicktionary!
How much stronger is the Sun's gravity than the Earth's?
Larger masses have larger gravitational forces, so the Sun's gravity is much stronger than that of Earth.
Does the sun have gravitional pull?
Yes, It has a strong gravitational pull. Without the gravitational pull, none of the planets would orbit it.
Why does not the sun revolve around the earth?
Because the sun is way bigger than the earth. And the sun's gravitational pull is way stronger than the earth. So the answer is the sun's gravitational pull. Because without the sun we would be floating lost in space
if the sun was 3 AU from the earth would the gravitational pull be stronger or weaker?
It would be weaker.
Where is the pull of gravity stronger at the surface of the earth or at the surface at the sun?
the sun because its mass is way bigger than that of earths
Which planet's gravitional attraction to the sun is weaker?
All the planets outside Earth experience a weaker gravity pull from the Sun. Neptune at a distance of 30 astronomical units is 30 times further from the Sun, and gravity from the Sun is 1/900 as strong.
Why doesn't the suns gravitational force pull off earth?
Because even though the sun's gravity is much stronger than Earth's overall, Earth's gravity is stronger on Earth's surface and in space around Earth because Earth is 93 million miles from the sun.
What does the phrase the earth is a satellite of the sun mean?
A Satellite is any object that orbits another object that has a stronger gravitational pull. For example, the Moon is the Earth's natural satellite. Mars has several, as do Saturn and Jupiter. All of the planets, including Earth, are satellite bodies of the Sun (Sol), since they all orbit the Sun, which has a much stronger gravitational pull.
Why does the sun does not pull the earth?
There is a just as equal pull from the Earth to the sun.
Would the Earth change if the Sun's gravity increased?
Yes. If the gravitational pull of the Sun grew stronger, the Earth would be pulled towards the Sun, making our planet lethally hot, somewhat like Venus.
Why does the moon have a stronger pull on earth than the sun?
Well, I don't think it is, considering we are revolving the SUN not the MOON. :) Although the Moon does have significant effects on the Earth because the Moon is such a large object so close the to Earth.
