Actually the sun is about 332,000 times more massive than Earth.
Chaisson and McMillan's "Astronomy Today", Volume II, Sixth Edition, Chapter 16 explains the mass as: "1.99X1030 kg with an Equatorial radius of 696,000km"
The earth is six times more massive than the moon. That keeps the moon in orbit around it, just as the mass of the sun keeps the earth in orbit around it.
The sun's diameter is about 1.4 million kilometers, which is more than 100 times earth's diameter.
The mass of the earth is over 80 times the mass of the moon. A massive object will tend to capture less massive objects in its gravitational field.____________But consider this: if the moon happened to be the same general size and mass as earth, which would orbit which? You would observe them each orbiting around an invisible spot half way between them, their 'system' center of gravity otherwise called the 'barycenter'. They would effectively be orbiting around each other. As the moon becomes less massive, what determines the 'cut-off' between orbiting around each other and the smaller orbiting the larger? In fact it is still true that earth and moon are each orbiting their barycenter. Interestingly, the barycenter in this case is within the body of the earth, because the earth is so much more massive than the earth.
There is more water than land. Answer There is quite a bit more sea than land, and an approximate ratio would be 2/3 sea and 1/3 land.
No. The gravity of Jupiter more than twice as strong as that on Earth.
The Sun is about 333,000 times more massive than Earth.
None of the planets that scientist know is exactly 15 times more massive than earth, but the closet one is Saturn, it is 18 times more bigger than earth,
The Earth has 81 times the mass of the Moon, but is only 49.3 times larger by volume. This demonstrates the relatively less dense nature of the Moon compared to Earth, because it does not have the same large, dense iron core.
A proton is approximately 1836 times more massive than an electron.

No. Earth is about 80 times more massive than the moon.
No, Saturn is nearly 100 times more massive than earth..
Earth is about 18.2 times more massive than mercury.
None of the planets that scientist know is exactly 15 times more massive than earth, but the closet one is Saturn, it is 18 times more bigger than earth,
The mass of the Earth is about 6x1024 kg The mass of an elecron is 9x10-31 kg Divide the first by the second to get the answer: The Earth is about 6.5x1054 times more massive. 6,500,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
The Sun is not a planet, it is a Star. It is 332,946 times more massive than the Earth.
