What is the gravitational force between the: (a) sun and moon. (b) earth and moon. (c) earth and sun. Thanks to whoever responds to me :)
Answers
Answer:
a. Based on its mass, the sun's gravitational attraction to the Earth is more than 177 times greater than that of the moon to the Earth. If tidal forces were based solely on comparative masses, the sun should have a tide-generating force that is 27 million times greater than that of the moon.
b. The gravitation force between the earth and object is called weight. It is also equal to the product of acceleration due to gravity and mass of the object.
c. the force of gravitation between the earth and the Sun, given that the mass of the earth = 6 x 1024 kg and of the Sun = 2 x 1030 kg. The average distance between the two is 1.5 x 1011m.

Answer:
1st answer.
Based on its mass, the sun's gravitational attraction to the Earth is more than 177 times greater than that of the moon to the Earth. If tidal forces were based solely on comparative masses, the sun should have a tide-generating force that is 27 million times greater than that of the moon.
2nd answer.
The gravitational constant (G) = 6.67 x 10-11 Nm2 / Kg2 . The mass of the earth (m1) = 6.0 x 1024 Kg . The mass of the moon (m2) = 7.35 x 1022 Kg . The average distance from the center of the earth to the center of the moon is 384,400,000 m .
3rd answer.
[Given that the mass of the earth = 6 x 1024 kg, mass of the sun = 2 x 1030 kg, average distance between the two is 1.5 x 10-11 m and G = 6.67 x 10-11 Nm2kg-2 ].
