On or near Earth's surface, the force of gravity on any mass is 9.8 newtons per kilogram.

The force of gravity that any mass on or near the surface exerts on the Earth is

also 9.8 newtons per kilogram.

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


Why doesnt the sun's gravitational force affect you more than earth's gravitational force does?

Mainly because we are in "free fall" around the Sun. In such situations, gravity won't be noticed. Also, Earth's gravitational force is much stronger, anyway, because Earth is much closer.


What is the gravitational force that earth has?

Well.................. the gravitational force of earth exerts a force of 9.8m/s squared.

How can the sun have a large gravitational affect on earth but a small gravitational force on you?

The gravitational force between two objects is proportional to the product of their masses. (sun's mass) times (earth's mass) is a very large number. (sun's mass) times (my mass) is a much smaller number.

Is the gravitational force of the sun is greater than that of Earth?

Yes, the gravitational force exerted by the Sun is much greater than that of the Earth. The Sun's mass is significantly larger than the Earth's, resulting in a stronger gravitational pull. This gravitational force is what keeps the planets in orbit around the Sun.


Does the gravitational force vary with the distance between earth and sun?

The gravitational force between the Earth and sun certainly depends on the distance between the Earth and sun. But the gravitational force between, for example, the Earth and me does not.


Is the gravitational force of earth and moon the same?

No, essentially mass = gravity the earths mass is roughly 81 * that of the moon, if you stood at the same distance from both, the force on you from the earth would be 81 * that of the moon.


How can uranus have 14 times as much mass as earth yet the gravitational force is less?

The gravitational force is set by the mass but also by how far away you are.
