Then we would not see the light of the Moon, either - the light we see from the Moon is light it reflects from the Sun.

Additionally the moon, together with our Earth would drift through the universe, not bound anymore be the sun's gravity field.

What do you think would happen if the earth stoped moving?

The gravitational pull of the sun would not be balanced by the outward force derived from the Earth's centripetal motion, and the earth would fall into the sun.

What do you think would happen if the moon has greater gravitational force than the earth?

A single body doesn't have a gravitational force. The force only shows up when there are two bodies. It pulls both of them toward each other, and they both feel the same force. The force between you and the earth is called your "weight", and it holds you down. The force between the earth and the moon is what keeps the moon in its orbit.


Larry weigh 300 N at the surface of the Earth What is the weight of the Earth in the gravitational field of Larry?

I like the way you think ! The earth 'weighs' 300 N in the gravitational field near the surface of Larry. You can easily prove this with a simple measurement: Take a bathroom scale, turn it upside down, and place it on the floor under Larry's feet. Now the scale is measuring the force that attracts the earth toward Larry. Larry's friends will be amazed ! The force of gravity is "mutual" between any two masses. That means the same force acts on both masses.

How does weight affect gravitational force?

Because that's exactly what 'weight' is ... It's the force of attraction between you and the Earth, or whatever planet you happen to be on at the moment. And the origin of that force is gravity.


What force is acting when you are sitting on a chair?

Your weight pushing down on the chair is the action force. The reaction force is the force exerted by the chair that pushes up on your body


How does the gravitational force exerted by earth on the sun compare with the gravitational force exerted by the sun on earth?

The gravitational forces on two objects are equal. You attract the earth with a force equal to your weight. Whatever you weigh on earth, that's exactly how much the earth weighs on you.

What is the force of flotability?

The force of buoyancy, also called the force of floatability, is the upward force exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of an immersed object. It is determined by the weight of the displaced fluid. When the force of buoyancy is greater than the weight of the object, it floats.
