It does. Earth, along with everything on it is pulled toward the sun by gravity. However since they are all pulled in the same direction at the same rate, everything stays on Earth.

Would Earth's gravity ever affect Pluto?

No, Earth's gravity would not affect Pluto. However, the suns gravity does.


How is gravity generated on the moon?

All objects irrespective of size that have a mass have gravity.The moon has very little gravity in comparison to the Earth The moons gravity is around 17% of that on Earth whereas the Suns is 2,800 times that of Earth's The effect of the Moons gravity is easiest to recognise with tides on Earth.


What is the Suns gravity in relation to Earths gravity?

The Sun's gravity, at its surface, is about 28 times Earth's surface gravity.


How does the effect of the suns gravity on Pluto compare to the effect of the suns gravity on earth?

well pluto is so far away that the sun rays can't reach out that far for it to be warmer and for earth,the earth is much closer and could get most of the suns hot rays


What is the force witch causes the earth to orbit the sun?

The force that causes the Earth to orbit the Sun is gravity. Gravity is the attraction between two objects with mass, and in the case of the Earth and the Sun, this gravitational force keeps the Earth in its elliptical orbit around the Sun.


Is the force of the suns gravity on the moon the same as the suns gravity on earth?

Not particularly. The Earth's rotation around the Solar System is controlled by the Sun but the Moon is mostly controlled by the Earth, so the Sun really has more of an influence on the Earth than the Moon.


Why does the earth move around?

the earth moves around because of the suns gravity. Its not rocket science.


What is the suns phase?

The sun does not have phases. It creates phases on objects between the earth and the sun. Objects beyond earth's orbit do not have phases.


How inertia and gravity combine to keep earth in orbit?

gravity and inertia combine to keep earth in orbit because the suns gravity keeps the earth in orbit and the inertia keeps the earth from going in a straight line.


Why causes the earth moon system to revolve around the earth?

The suns gravity. think u people! -_- people.


Why is the suns gravity so large?

The Sun's gravity is large because the Sun has a lot of mass (about 333,000 times the mass of Earth). Masses cause gravity.


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.
