The force that is exerted by the Sun on Neptune is the gravitational attraction. This force can be calculated using the equation F = GMm/R^2, where F is the force in N, G is the universal gravitational constant, M and m are the masses of the two objects in kg, and R is the distance in meters between the centers of mass.

∙ 15y agoThis question needs more information before it can be answered. A gravitating body, like Neptune, exerts a force that decreases with the distance from the center of the gravitating body, and is proportional to the mass of the object being acted on. The force may be calculated from Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation.

∙ 9y agoThe Sun affects Neptune by keeping it in orbit via its gravitational pull.
Since Neptune is at a distance of 30 astronomical units, the Sun's rays are 1/900 as intense as they are on Earth. There would be enough light to read by. The Sun's rays have a power of about 1.5 watts per square metre on Neptune. Since a lot of that is reflected away by the high cloud over, Neptune is somewhat cold.

How does the gravitational force exerted by earth on the sun compare with the gravitational force exerted by the sun on the earth?
The gravitational forces on two objects are equal. You attract the earth with a force equal to your weight. Whatever you weigh on earth, that's exactly how much the earth weighs on you.
How does the force of gravity exerted by the Sun on Jupiter compare to the force of gravity exerted by Jupiter on the Sun?
The gravitational forces between any two masses are equal on each mass.Your weight on Earth is equal to the Earth's weight on you.
Why does the sun have only a little effect on tides?
The gravitational force exerted on the Earth by the Sun is on average 179 times stronger than that exerted on the Earth by the Moon. However, the Sun is on average 389 times farther from the Earth than the Moon and therefore the gradient of its gravitational field is weaker. This results in the tidal force produced by the Sun being only 46% of that produced by the Moon. Thus the tidal force of the Moon is 2.21 times larger than that of the Sun.
Is the gravitational force exerted on an object by earth?
Yes
Is the force exerted by the Moon on Earth equal to the force exerted by the Earth on Moon?
Yes for every action there will be an EQUAL and opposite reaction. This is Newton's third law

Would the force of gravity exerted onto the Earth by the Sun change?
It changes all the time, as Earth gets closer to, and farther from, the Sun, in its yearly orbit.

What is another name for the gravitational force exerted by the sun?
Gravitation.
What is a gravitational force exerted on an object by earth?
weight
Is the gravitational force exerted on an object by earth?
Yes
The downward force exerted by an object?
The downward force exerted on an object is caused by gravity (from the Earth). This force is called weight and can be calculated by multiplying the mass of the object by the acceleration due to gravity on Earth (about 9.8).
What is the force exerted by a 3kg ball?
the force exerted by a 3 kg ball on earth is weight force, whose direction is downward, and magnitude is 29.4 newton.
How can Jupiter have gravity if it is gaseous?
Grvity affects everything with mass. Gas has mass. The Earth's atmosphere, and every part of the sun, are gaseous. They exert gravitational force, and they have gravitational force exerted on them.
meaning of gravity?
Gravity is a force exerted by the 'spin' of the Earth.
What is the vertical force exerted by the mass of an object?
Earth's axis
