The Sun's gravitational force controls all the orbits of planets and other objects that orbit the Sun (dwarf planets, asteroids, comets, meteors).
An object without a force acting on it travels in a straight line. The Sun's gravity causes each object to accelerate towards the Sun, as described by Newton's second law: force = mass x acceleration.
The acceleration causes any fast-moving object to curve towards the Sun, as Newton discovered. This is a permanent process with the object in a stable orbit unless disturbed by a collision of some sort.
What else can I help you with?
What keeps earth in its orbit?
The sun's gravitational pull keeps the earth in orbit around it.
What determine the gravitational pull of a object?
An object's gravitational pull is determined by the object's mass.
Does our Sun have a gravitational pull?
Yes, everything in the cosmos has a gravitational pull on everything else.
What is the gravitational pull of the sun and the moon?
The regular rising and falling of ocean water due to the gravitational pull of the Sun and Moon is called
What is the gravitational pull of the sun and moon is called?
The regular rising and falling of ocean water due to the gravitational pull of the Sun and Moon is called
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 do the planets circle the sun?
Planets orbit the Sun due to the gravitational pull between them. This gravitational force keeps the planets in their elliptical paths around the Sun. It is a balance between the planets' inertia wanting to move forward and the Sun's gravitational force pulling them inward.
What planet sun or moon has the strongest gravitational pull?
Neither the sun nor the moon are planets. The sun has the strongest gravitational pull of any object in the solar system.
Why the planets move around the sun?
The gravitational pull of the Sun.
Does the sun have a strong gravitational pull?
Yes it does.
What happens to the gravitational pull between the sun and the object as they get further away from the sun?
the pull weakens
What happens to the pull of gravity when the sun and moon at right angles?
The Gravitational pull on the oceans is Partially canceled out by the suns Gravitational pull.
