What is the magnitude of the gravitional force between earth and a 1-kg body?

That depends on how far the body is from the earth, since earth's gravitational force decreases as you get farther from it. Near the surface of the earth, the force is about 9.8067 Newtons or about 2.2046 pounds.

Does the moon excert gravitional force on earth?
Yes.
What does gravitional force?
The force of attraction between masses is called gravitional force or gravity
What would happened to the magnitude of the gravitational force between the sun and Earth if earth were placed in Pluto's orbit?
The magnitude of the force would decrease greatly.
What would happen to the magnitude of the gravitational force between the suns and earth if earth were placed in Pluto's orbit?
The magnitude of the force would decrease greatly.

The magnitude of the force would decrease greatly.
What is the magnitude of the gravitional force acting on an object?
Magnitude is a scientific way of saying size or number. The gravitational force is the force (measured by Newtons (N)) acting on an object. On earth, the gravitational force is 9.81 Newtons, this can be commonly rounded to 9.8 or even 10, depending on the accuracy required. In laymen's terms, the magnitude of the gravitational force is simply the strength of gravity acting on an object.
How does the gravitional force change if theier mass are halved?
If the masses of two objects are each halved, and the distance between them doesn't change, then the mutual gravitational forces of attraction between them are reduced to 1/4 of their original magnitude.
Only the earth exerts gravitional force on all object true or false?
false
Why doesn't the sun's gravitional force affect you more than earth's gravitional force does?
Because even though the sun has a lot more mass than the Earth has, the sun's center is about 23,000 times farther away from me than the Earth's center is. The force of gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between two bodies. Therefore, something even 10 times further away has only 1 percent of the force.
How is mars gravitational force different from earth?
Only in its magnitude ... about 38% of its magnitude on Earth.
How is the gravitational force related to the distance between objects?
At a larger distance, the gravitional force gets smaller.
