It holds the planets in place so that they dont float into space and also means that they orbit the sun. this creates the seasons due to tilt

How does the effect of the suns gravity on Pluto compare to the effect of the suns gravity on earth?

well pluto is so far away that the sun rays can't reach out that far for it to be warmer and for earth,the earth is much closer and could get most of the suns hot rays


How does the suns gravitational pull affect your solar system?

The Sun's gravitational pull is what keeps everything orbiting the Sun. Otherwise the Solar System would not stay together. There are other smaller effects. For example the rotation of Mercury on its axis is affected by the Sun's gravity. The Sun's gravity helps to cause the tides on Earth, but the Moon is more important.


It is generally believed that the entire solar system originated from a?

Accreted matter, after the suns development and ignition. The accreted matter formed the planets with help from the suns gravity and billions of years of development. Enormous clouds of gas and matter eventually coalesce under the force of gravity from accumulating for long periods of time, forming terrestrial planets and the gas giants alike. All revolving around the sun, the biggest body in the system with the most attracting forces.


Is the sun a part of a bianary star system?

Hmm. Let's have a look out side. How many Suns do I see? One. Our Solar System is not part of a binary star system, otherwise you'd see two Suns in the sky.


How do you see all the planets solar system even though they do not make a light?

the reason you can see the planets in our solar system is because, they reflect the suns light off of their atmosphere or sufrace.

Does our solar system have two Suns?

No. Our solar system just has our Sun.


How does the sun effect all the planets in the solar system?

They are all orbiting the Sun, therefor all in the Suns gravitational pull.


Is the force of the suns gravity on the moon the same as the suns gravity on earth?

Not particularly. The Earth's rotation around the Solar System is controlled by the Sun but the Moon is mostly controlled by the Earth, so the Sun really has more of an influence on the Earth than the Moon.

Are there other suns outside of the solar system?

all stars are suns so yes________________________TRILLIONS of them. Every star in the sky is the Sun of another solar system.


How big is the Milky Way compared to the solar system?

The boundary of the Solar System is defined as the point where the Suns gravity no longer has an effect on any body. That distance is approximately 2 light years. The Milky Way Galaxy is about 100,000 light years across. So, the Milky Way Galaxy is about 50,000 times larger.


Why is the suns gravity the most powerful of all the bodies in your solar system?

Gravity is a force that is produced by mass. Most of the mass of the solar system is in the sun; it is tremendously larger than any planet, or than all the planets put together. Therefore, it is has the most powerful gravitational field.

Does the suns gravity produced solar winds?

Only indirectly, since the gravity keeps the Sun together, and therefore, hot.
