Newton was first claim that the earth is ellipsoid instead of spherical...
The technical name for the shape of the Earth is geoid. This is studied in the science of geodesy.
No, the Sun and Earth are not roughly the same shape. The Sun is a roughly spherical star, while the Earth is an oblate spheroid, meaning it is mostly spherical but slightly flattened at the poles and bulging at the equator.
Gravitational attraction between Earth and objects is determined by their mass and distance. The more massive an object is, the stronger the attraction. Similarly, the closer an object is to Earth, the stronger the gravitational pull.

Because it's spherical object
The spherical ball rolled down the hill into the street.
An orange is an everyday object that has a shape similar to Earth, with a round and spherical shape.
Yes, "globe" is a noun. It refers to a spherical representation of the Earth or another celestial body, or a spherical object.
Such an object is called a planet. We live on the planet Earth.
Most often, the word globe refers to a spherical representation of the earth or of the constellations with a map on the surface. Otherwise it is any spherical or rounded object.
WHAT demonstrates that the Earth is spherical?!
First he realised that eclipses of the moon were caused by the earth coming between the sun & the moon. The earth's shadow on the moon was always round, which would be true only if the earth was spherical.
The amount of gravitational attraction between the Earth and an object depends on the object's distance from the Earth and the masses of both the object and the Earth. The gravitational force decreases as the distance between the object and Earth increases, following the inverse square law.
-- the mass of the object -- the distance between the object and the earth's center (or the object's height off the surface)
It is gravity.
The Earth is almost spherical. It's slightly squashed, or oblate.
