Since the attraction due to gravity is a function of the Mass and the Distance of the bodies, then Earth's Moon would feel the strongest gravity pull.

How much more is the gravitational force of the earth than the moon?

The acceleration of gravity on the moon is about 1/6th the acceleration of gravity on earth. Any mass on the earth's surface feels about 6 times the downward force that it would feel on the surface of the moon.


Why does the sun feels hotter in the summer than it does in winter?

I think because the sun is tilted from where ever you are, facing the other side of the earth, so obviously, it's colder. On the other side of the earth, its warmer.


Does gravity effect high and low tides?

It's not the moon's gravity alone, but the interaction of the earth and moon. One influence is the fact that the earth-moon system orbits around the common center of gravity of earth-moon. This point is called the barycenter, and it is within the body of the earth since earth's mass is considerably larger than the moon's mass. As the earth wobbles around the barycenter, it tends to push the water out from behind the barycenter. At the same time, the gravitational attraction of the moon is stronger on the water that is moon-side than it is on the water on the opposite side of earth. So there is a high tide bulge on two opposite sides of the earth at once, and of course then there are two low tide areas at roughly 90 degree angles to the high tides.

What is the pull of gravity on earth a direct result of?

The force of gravity is mutual between every pair of masses. The strength of the force is proportional to the product of the masses, and it's equal in both directions. The 'pull' toward the earth that you feel is the force of gravity between the earth's mass and your mass. The strength of the pull is proportional to the product of your mass and the earth's mass, and the earth feels the same pull toward you.

Why does the moon impact earth's tides?

The force of gravity varies with the distance - at a greater distance, the force is less. Thus, The side of the Earth that is closer to the Moon feels more gravitational attraction than the side that is farther away - Earth is pulled apart, slightly.


What does gravity Change on the body when you leave Earth?

Because gravity is the force of attraction between two objects, and the strength of the force depends on the distance between them. If the Earth is one of the objects and the other one leaves the Earth, then the force of gravity it feels is certainly going to change.

How many forces are on the moon?

If you refer to gravitation, any object in the Solar System will attract the moon. However, the strongest forces the moon "feels" are from the Sun (being the most massive object in the Solar System), and from the Earth (being relatively near-by).
