No object has a pull in Newtons, or in pounds either, and I can prove it . . .
My dog and I are both standing outside, on the earth.
The force between the earth and me is 822 newtons (185 pounds).
The force between the earth and my dog is 400 newtons (90 pounds).
The force between the earth and that object he just deposited in our neighbor's yard is at least 8.9 newtons (2 pounds).
Obviously, the earth pulls different objects with different forces.
(And each object pulls the earth right back with the same force.)
The force between the planet and the object depends on BOTH masses,
AND the distance between their centers.
1) The correct units are "Newtons per kilogram", because the gravitational force depends on how many kilograms are being "pulled" by the planet. 2) The force depends on the distance from the centre of the planet. It is usual to give the force at the surface, the "surface gravity". Now here's the data, in Newtons per kilogram (rounded to the nearest whole number for the giant planets) :- Mercury : 3.71 Venus : 8.90 Earth : 9.81 Mars : 3.70 Jupiter : 26 Saturn : 11 Uranus : 9 Neptune : 12 These numbers are fairly accurate, but you may find slight variations, depending on the source of the data.
Planets orbit the Sun due to the gravitational pull between them. This gravitational force keeps the planets in their elliptical paths around the Sun. It is a balance between the planets' inertia wanting to move forward and the Sun's gravitational force pulling them inward.
Gas giants are larger and there for have a stronger gravitational pull. When the solar system was forming, the larger planets with greater gravitational pulls collected more satellites and therefore have more moons.
Yes, the sun's gravitational pull is what keeps Earth and the other planets in our solar system in orbit around it. This gravitational force is what maintains the planets' paths and prevents them from moving off into space.
When you reach beyond Earth's gravitational pull, you enter outer space. Objects in space continue to be influenced by the gravitational forces of other celestial bodies such as the sun, planets, and stars. Becoming free from Earth's gravitational pull allows spacecraft to travel to other planets and explore the universe.
Gravitational pull
The gravitational pull on all the planets are artificial satellites because the satellites orbit all the planets!
Gravitational pull is less for Mercury, Venus, Mars and Uranus. And th eother planets have higher gravitational pull.
By the gravitational pull

Yes, It has a strong gravitational pull. Without the gravitational pull, none of the planets would orbit it.
Planets orbit the Sun due to the gravitational pull between them. This gravitational force keeps the planets in their elliptical paths around the Sun. It is a balance between the planets' inertia wanting to move forward and the Sun's gravitational force pulling them inward.
Not only planets but everything with mass, no matter how large or small, has a gravitational effect.
The gravitational pull.
Their mass is. Gravitational force is a force between masses.
The sun's so large that its gravitational pull is very strong, but just strong enough to hold the planets in place. So the relationship is its gravitational pull.
Gravity is determined by mass. Everything with mass has gravitational pull (including you). Planets with more mass have higher gravitational pulls
