Question

Sun has mass 330000 times that of earth. For a person on earth, the average distance to center of earth. In magnitude what is ratio of sun's gravitional force on you to earth's gravitional force on you

Answer 1

Mass of sun =2×10^30

Distance from us = 1500000000000 km

our mass=x

gravitational force= 2×10^30×x/1.5×10^11=1.3x×10^19

Mass of earth =6×10^24

Radius of earth = 6.4 ×10^6

gravitational force =9.8

now find the ratio

Answer 2

Explanation:

mass of sun = 2*10^30

distance from us = 1500000000000 km

our mass =x

gravitational force =2*10^30*x/1.5*10^11=1.3x*10^19

mass of the earth = 6*10^24

radius of the earth=6.4*10^6

gravitational force =9.8

now u can find the ratio easily
