An bigger thing on Universe, the more gravity but the Black hole is small but has the most gravity pushing in it and Stars had more gravity than the planets just like an Guy with an big muscle. he had the ability to push and pull and object.

Is it true that the closer the planets are to the sun then the less gravity the planets have?
No. The surface gravity of a planet depends on its size and mass, not its distance from the sun.
How does gravity affect the earths surface?
It makes things weigh more or less, depending on the surface gravity.
Which planet has the least surface gravity?
Mercury has the smallest mass of the 8 planets at 5.5% of the mass of the Earth. It therefore has the least gravity of all the planets.
Why is gravity good?
Without gravity the universe would be much less interesting, and would consist only of a very thin cloud of gas, with no stars or planets, or computers or web-sites.
Why do planets have less gravity then the Sun?
Planets have less mass than the sun, hence, they have weaker gravitational fields.

What inner planets low planetary gravity?
Mercury & Mars both have surface gravity less than that of Earth. Mars is about 1/3 that of Earth. The surface gravity of Venus is also less, but only very slightly.
Why is the surface gravity of Pluto the weaker than that of the planets in our solar system?
Pluto has a weaker surface gravity than a planet because it has much less mass than a planet has.
Is there more gravity in outer space?
It depends on where you are. In most pars of space you are far away from any massive objects, so gravity will be much weaker than it is at Earth's surface. At the height of low Earth orbit, gravity is slightly less than it is at the surface. Only near very massive objects such as giant planets and stars will you experience stronger gravity than on Earth.

What effect does the surface gravity have on the things on a planet?
It makes something weigh more or less. Also it makes something stay in the planets

Why is weight different on different planets and the moon?
Some planets have less gravity or more gravity.More gravity giving you more weight and less giving you less weight.
Does larger planets have more gravity than the earth?
It is more accurate to say that more massive planets have stronger gravity. If a planet had the same mass as Earth but a larger radius (i.e. it is less dense) surface gravity would be weaker, as the strength of gravity depends on both an objects mass and the distance from its center.
Do less massive planets have less gravitational force?
Gravity is the pull from matter. Less matter means less gravity, so yes.
