Q. Why does the sun have more gravity than Earth does?
The force exerted between Earth and Sun can neither be attributed to the Sun nor the Earth but it is a combined phenomenon.
There are lots of other answers here that try to mathematically explain this phenomenon. I'll try to explain it in such a manner that a layman understands.
Force in most simplified version is just to be attracted (or also replled in case of electrostatic or magnetic force ) by another body. Force always needs at least 2 bodiesGravity is attraction by bodies ( everything known except light ( photons) have mass and have gravity -this ranges from toothbrush to galaxies to electron)The more mass they have more gravity they have (Mass is not weight but they are proportional . Though on Earth we say weight in Kilograms, weight is actually a form of force measured in newton. Mass is Kilograms. For example a child has more gravity than a human )Sun is heavier than Earth ( Note: its fact that the sun is heavier not bigger that affects gravity. 1 litre of mercury has more gravity than 1 litre of water but both are of same volume )The Sun is 333,000 times heavier than Earth. Thus Sun has more gravity at the same distance compared to Earth to an object of same mass
