The Earth exerts the greatest gravitational force on you because it is the most massive object you are closest to. The Earth exerts a force equal to your weight. The other objects exert gravitational forces but are not very noticeable because they are either low in mass or separated from you by great distance.

Astronomical objects such as the sun, the moon, and the Earth, would not be described by scientists as forces, although they do exert gravitational force. Of those three, the sun exerts by far the greatest amount of gravitational force. There are also larger astronomical objects, there are larger stars and also galaxies composed of billions of stars, which exert much larger amounts of gravitational force than the sun does, so the sun would hardly exert the strongest force in our universe. It does exert the greatest amount of force in our solar system.

How many newtons of force does a rocket need to take off?

This depends on the weight of the rocket, weight being the mass of the rocket multiplied by earth's gravitational pull. To take off, the rocket needs to exert force larger than the weight, and for a sufficient amount of time to break out of orbit. For instance, if the rocket had a mass of 1kg, it'd exert (1 * 9.8), or 9.8 Newtons of force towards to ground via it's weight (9.8 being the acceleration towards the ground due to gravity). This means that to start to accelerate away from the ground, the rocket would need to exert force higher than 9.8 Newtons. If your hypothetical rocket has a mass of x kg, then it will need to exert a force greater than 9.8x newtons, ignoring air resistance and decaying of the gravitational field.


What is gavitational force?

gravitational force is a basic force of nature, it presents everywhere and at all time. The gravitational force acts between any 2 masses in the universe and pulls them toward each other .It is the force that pulls objects toward earth.

What do you call a force that you exert away from you?

Mass


Which force is responsible when a ripe fruit falls from a tree?

Of course, the gravitational pull of the earth is the prime factor here. The apple is being pulled to the centre of the earth, but in most cases is blocked by something .Example, the ground. Gravity is pulling everything toward it, but depending on how heavy it is determines how much force that gravity has over the object. For example: Gravity has more control over a car than a helium balloon, because the heavier the object, the more gravitational pull it conducts.

True


Why does Earth exert a sgronger gravitational force than the moon?

The bigger an object's mass is, the bigger its gravitational pull is. Earth's gravitational pull is larger because it has a bigger mass.

The sun has more mass than earth.


Does earth the moon and sun have gravity?

Yes, they have gravity. In fact, anything that has mass will have a gravitational force - the more mass a body has, the more gravitational force it will exert.
