Gravity has to do with everything in the universe. Gravity pulls the Moon toward the Earth, but its orbital speed prevents it from falling into it (it falls"around" the Earth in a slightly elliptical orbit). Similarly, the Sun's gravity keeps the Earth and Moon, and the other planets, in their orbits.
What else can I help you with?
Does the sun have greater gravity than the moon?
The sun definitely has more gravity than the moon. Gravity is based on mass, and the sun is much more massive.
Which pulls with greater force on the earth's oceans the sun or the moon?
The gravity from the Sun is more than the gravity from the Moon. However, the Moon has a greater effect on the tides.The gravity from the Sun is more than the gravity from the Moon.

However, the Moon has a greater effect on the tides.The gravity from the Sun is more than the gravity from the Moon. However, the Moon has a greater effect on the tides.
Does the sun have less gravity than the moon?
No. Gravity is a function of mass, and the sun's mass is about 27,000,000 times the mass of the moon.
Does the earth have less gravity than the sun and moon?
Earth has weaker gravity than the sun bu stronger gravity than the moon.

What has stronger gravity moon or the sun?
sun

Does the earth have less gravity than the sun and moon?
Earth has weaker gravity than the sun bu stronger gravity than the moon.
Do you feel the sun's gravity more or the Moon's?
The Moon
What are the factors that effects the tide?
The gravity of the moon and the gravity of the sun.
What effect is caused by the Moon's gravity?
Earth's tides are caused by the Moon's gravity (in combination with the Sun's).
Does the Moon's gravity cause water currents?
Not exactly. The Moon's gravity (together with the Sun's gravity) causes the tides on Earth.
What links the earththe sun and the moon?
Gravity.
Do the earth and the moon orbit the sun since the moon orbits the earth and the earth the sun?
Yes, while the Earth orbits the Sun, the Moon carries on orbiting the Earth, as it is not as affected by the distant gravity of the Sun as it is by the nearer gravity of Earth.
When does the sun's gravity combine the Moon's gravity?
It combines at all times. Poorly worded, meaningless question. During a solar eclipse (Sun, Moon,Earth all in line) the gravitational pull in the direction of the Moon would be the greatest. During a lunar eclipse (Moon, Earth, Sun in a line) the Moon's pull would be in the opposite direction of the Sun's gravity.
