Is your sun and other stars far away in another galaxy too far to feel a gravitational force between them?
Galaxies do exert significant gravitational attraction on other galaxies. For example, the Greater and the Lesser Magellanic Clouds are galaxies that orbit our own galaxy, the Milky Way. In that sense, the stars in one galaxy do have a gravitational interaction with those in other galaxies. Of course, the more distant galaxies have correspondingly less gravitational interaction with ours.
Our sun and any star far away in another galaxy despite being very far apart still feel a gravitation force between them true or false?
true
Are there any individual stars in the space between galaxies?
Yes, there are. These generally come about when they are ejected from their host galaxy by the huge gravitational interaction involved in the collisions of galaxies.
How does a galaxy's gravity affect a planet?
It has a minor gravitational pull on it, but it will barely affect it.
What is another word for galaxy?
another word for galaxy is milky way
Our sun and any star far away in another galaxy are too distant to feel a gravitational force between them?
True

Are satellites outside the earths gravitational pull?
No. It's the mutual gravitational force between it and the earth that keeps a satellitein a closed orbit, instead of flying off away from earth in a straight line.Technically, there's no such thing as "outside of" the gravitational force of anything.We can calculate the gravitational force between a star in a distant galaxy and the earth.In fact, we can calculate the gravitational force between a star in a distant galaxy and you.The force is pretty small, but it's there.
What is the difference between a galaxy and a satellite galaxy?
A satellite galaxy is one that revolves around another galaxy.

true
How far is the earth gravitaional force is present That is What is the height?
There is no limit, and it never ends. The formula to calculate the gravitational force at any distance has no limit in it. The force of the gravitational attraction between the earth and another object can be calculated even if the other object is in another galaxy. Of course, the farther apart two masses are, the smaller the gravitational force between them is. So when you're far from the earth, there's probably something else nearby that attracts you with a stronger gravitational force than the earth does. But no matter how far away you are, and how weak it gets, the earth's gravitational force never ends.
Is the farther away galaxy is from us the faster it is moving away from us?
The farther away another galaxy is from our solar system the less effect that the gravitational pull will have on that galaxy.Thus allowing the other galaxy to travel at a faster rate.
How does the solar system move?
By gravitational pull from the galaxy
Does a massive elliptical galaxy have a lot or very little gravitational force on other galaxies?
Massive means there is a lot of mass - and gravitational attraction depends on the amount of mass. The amount of gravitational attraction also depends on the distance - i.e., the effect will be less at larger distances. The gravitational attraction between galaxies is strong enough to make galaxies in a galaxy cluster stay together - for example, in our Local Group.
When is gravity zero?
The force of gravitational attraction between two masses is never zero. There is a force of gravitational attraction between a hair on your head and the smallest moon in the farthest galaxy. The force may be too small to measure, but it's never zero.
What are boundaries of a galaxy?
A point where the center does not have gravitational pull... once things stop orbiting thats it for the galaxy
What is billions of stars held together by gravitational attraction?
it is a galaxy.
