The strength of gravity on the surface of a planet is related to the mass of the planet, the more mass, the higher the gravity. So the smallest planet, Mercury, is the planet with the lowest gravity, 0.38 of one g or 38% of Earths gravity. There are then the dwarf Planets which are smaller and have lower gravity. Ceres is one, in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, its gravity is only 0.028g, or 2.8 of Earths. Planetary moons may smaller still, having less gravity again due to their lower mass. There are some very small moons which are only a few km across - these will have a gravity (everything with mass has a gravitational field), but this will be tiny for such a small object.

Why are magnets able to overcome force of gravity?
You don't specifically need a magnet to overcome the force of gravity; ANY force that is stronger than gravity can "overcome" it, at least temporarily. For example, if you lift an object up, you are "overcoming" the force of gravity.
What is the inward force of the sun on the planets?
gravity not to sure tho
Is gravity a force or mass?
Gravity is a force.
What is the relationship mass and the force of gravity?
Mass is a measure of how much matter something has. Weight is the effect of gravity pulling on that mass. So an object that weighs 1kg on Earth would weigh less on the Moon which has less gravity even though the mass of the object is constant. The relationship is: Force of gravity on an object in a certain place = (object's mass) x (acceleration of gravity in that place) .
Is gravity the second strongest force in the universe?
No gravity is the weakest force. The proper order is strong force, Electromagnetic, weak force, then gravity

What is the force that keep the sun and planets in its place?
Gravity is the force that keeps all things in our universe in place. Enstien theorised that gravity and time were intertwined in to a "fabric".
What is the centripetal force holding the moon into Earth?
The force that holds the moon in place is gravity. Without gravity, there wouldn't be a moon.
What force keeps Sun and planets in place?
gravity
Type of force that keeps the planets in place?
That force is called gravity.
What is the name of the force that plays a role in shaping your universe?
There are (at least) 4 : gravity, electromagnetic strong force, & weak force.
What is the inward force of the sun on the planets?
gravity not to sure tho
What force holds the objects in the solar system in place?
Gravity!
What force keeps the planets in it's place including the sun?
Gravity
What keeps the planets and the sun in place?
Gravity, inertia, and gravitational force.
where gravity force used?
Everywhere. There's no place you can go to get away from it.
What type of force keeps the planets in place?
Gravity 0__0 you are dumb
