They exert Gravitational Force on each other.

It is a force which is directly proportional to Mass of the object

The moon orbits earth and not the sun because the sun doesn't exert a gravitional force on the moon True or False?

False. The sun does exert a gravitational force on the moon.


True or false The Moon orbits Earth and not the Sun because the Sun doesn't exert a gravitational force on the Moon?

False. The Moon orbits around Earth due to Earth's gravitational pull, but the Sun also exerts a gravitational force on the Moon. The combined gravitational forces of Earth and the Sun control the Moon's orbit.


Does the moon orbits earth and not the sun because the sun doesn't exert a gravitational force on the moon?

false


What force keeps the moon in orbit around the sun?

The force that keeps the moon in orbit around the sun is the gravitational force between the sun and the moon. This force causes the moon to continuously fall towards the sun but its orbital motion prevents it from colliding with the sun.


Why does the sun exert a bigger force on the earth than on the moon?

The force of gravity between two objects depends on their masses and distance. The sun exerts a bigger force on the Earth because the Earth has a much larger mass compared to the Moon. Additionally, the distance between the Earth and the sun is much closer than the distance between the Moon and the sun.


Out of the Sun Earth the Moon and a Book which one exert the stronget gravitational force on you?

The Earth exerts the greatest gravitational force on you because it is the most massive object you are closest to. The Earth exerts a force equal to your weight. The other objects exert gravitational forces but are not very noticeable because they are either low in mass or separated from you by great distance.


Does the Sun exert a gravitational force on the Moon?

Yes, the Sun exerts a gravitational force on the Moon. This gravitational force contributes to the Moon's orbit around the Earth and influences its motion, causing various phenomena such as tides on Earth.


Does earth the moon and sun have gravity?

Yes, they have gravity. In fact, anything that has mass will have a gravitational force - the more mass a body has, the more gravitational force it will exert.


The moon orbits the earth and not the sun because its closer to the earth making the gravitational force acting on it due to the earth more significant than that of the sun?

The moon orbits the Earth because of the gravitational pull of the Earth, not because it is closer to the Earth. The force of gravity depends on mass, so the more massive object (in this case, the Earth) has a greater gravitational pull on the smaller object (the Moon). This gravitational force keeps the Moon in orbit around the Earth.


Why does the sun exert a bigger force on earth?

Because it has a larger mass


Why does the moon have a greater effect on earth than the sun?

The moon does not have a greater effect on the earth than the sun, the moon effects the earth in a different way:The sun effects the earth by locking it in a gravitational orbit through the force of intertia, and effecting it's temperateness and density.The moon effects it on a closer short term basis by manipulating ocean and weather conditions.


What force is responsible for the moon orbiting around the earth and earth orbiting around the sun?

The force of gravity causes the moon to orbit the Earth, and the Earth to orbit the sun.
