Yes. If the gravitational pull of the Sun grew stronger, the Earth would be pulled towards the Sun, making our planet lethally hot, somewhat like Venus.

What of the changes below would increase the force of Earth's gravity on an object?
The only way to change anythings gravity is to change its' mass. (apex) Increase the mass of the object Decrease the distance of the object from Earth
When a astronaut is in space her body is acted upon by increased gravitational force from the earth?
No, it would be with a decreased force of gravity.
How would your mass change if you went from the earth to the moon?
It wouldn't. Your weight would change, because it is equal to mass times acceleration, and the acceleration of gravity on the moon is about 1/6th that of Earth's, so you would weight about 1/6th as much on the moon as on the Earth. But mass is constant, regardless of where you are. Mass does increase with increased speed, however, according to Einstein's Theory of Relativity.
Suppose you took a trip to the moon how and why would your weight change would your mass change too?
Your mass would stay the same, but your weight would change. Weight is the effect of gravity acting upon an object, where as mass is the amount of matter an object has. Your "weight" measured on the Moon would be one-sixth your weight on Earth.
What is gravity on Mars compared to earth?
The gravity on the surface of Mars is approximately one third of that on the surface of Earth. Comment: I always say "about 38%".

How much would the force of gravity at the surface of the Earth differ if Earth volume were increased 125 times and its mass 25 times?
Assume an initial gravity of 1 unit. Calculate the change in radius from the change in volume. That would be the third root of the volume. Divide by the radius squared.Also, multiply by the increase in mass, i.e., by a factor of 25. Since you started off by 1 unit of gravity, the final result will tell you by what factor the force of gravity increased.
What happen if the earth gravity force was less or more?
If gravity increased you would lift up and float in the sky.If gravity decreased you would be pulled to the ground even more than you are now
If earth stops to rotate what happens to gravity?
Nothing, the force of gravity is not affected by Earth's rotation. However measurement of WEIGHT would change.
If you weigh 100kg and went to the moon which has 16 the gravity of earth would your weight change?
yes it would change
How would the mass of an object change if it were on the moon?
The mass of an object itself does not change on the moon. However, an object's weight is less than it would be on Earth because the moon's gravity is weaker than Earth's gravity.
What problem would you encounter if the pull of the earth's gravity suddenly increased?
You Would Encounter A Feeling Of Enormous Weight And People Screaming

What would happen if earth didn't have gravity?
If the earth had no gravity it follows that gravity would be absent from any mass. In the absence of gravity life would not exist.
