Best Answer

The center of the sun is very roughly 23,000 times as far from you as the center

of the Earth is.

That means that the gravitational force between you and each pellet of mass in

the sun is roughly

1/(23,000)2 = 1/(540 million) = 0.00000000185 as much as

the gravitational force between you and each pellet of mass in the Earth.

The sun has roughly 333,000 times as much mass as the Earth has. So the total

gravitational force between you and the sun is

333,000/(540 million) = 0.000617 as much as

the total gravitational force between you and the Earth.

How does mass and gravity distance effect gravity?

The larger the mass of an object, the greater the force it will exert on other objects. But as the distance from that object becomes greater, the gravitational pull becomes smaller. For example, the sun has a larger mass than the earth, so gravity on the suns surface would be much greater than on earths surface. Also, as you get further and further away from the earth, the less you are influenced by its gravity.


How did gravity relate the shape and size of the universe?

because the suns gravitational pull is so large that the planets stay close to together
