The gravitational force is set by the mass but also by how far away you are.
The gravitational force on Earth is six times greater than that on the moon.
The gravitational force of the sun is many thousands of times greater than that of Earth. This is due to the enormous difference in mass between the two.
The gravitational force from a planet on the sun is so small. For example, 1,000,000 Earths can fit in the sun. The mass of the sun is 333,000 times bigger than the Earth. It is the same way you on Earth. You have a gravitational force on the Earth but it is so small.
The gravitational force between two objects is proportional to the product of their masses. (sun's mass) times (earth's mass) is a very large number. (sun's mass) times (my mass) is a much smaller number.
The gravitational force is 'mutual' ... both of the bodies involved experience equal forces toward the other.In the gravitational attraction between the earth and you, the earth is attracted toward you with a forceequal to your weight.If the earth and moon were five times as far apart as they are today, the force on each toward the otherwould decrease to (1/52) = (1/25th) = 4% of what it is today.
The gravitational force on Earth is six times greater than that on the moon.
The gravitational force of Jupiter is thought to be 24.79 m/s2. That is 2.5 times the gravitational pull of Earth.
Uranus.
It isn't. It is 0.38 times that of the earth.
The gravitational force would be 1/25 of the current value. Gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.

It will be 4 times as great
about 330,000 times stronger

The gravitational field near the "surface" is about 8.69 meters/second2 (= 8.69 newton/kilogram). For comparison, Earth's gravity field near its surface is about 9.82 meters/second2. Please note that the gas planets, including Uranus, don't really have a surface like Earth does.
