No object has a pull in Newtons, or in pounds either, and I can prove it . . .
My dog and I are both standing outside, on the earth.
The force between the earth and me is 822 newtons (185 pounds).
The force between the earth and my dog is 400 newtons (90 pounds).
The force between the earth and that object he just deposited in our neighbor's yard is at least 8.9 newtons (2 pounds).
Obviously, the earth pulls different objects with different forces.
(And each object pulls the earth right back with the same force.)
The force between the planet and the object depends on BOTH masses,
AND the distance between their centers.

∙ 13y agoAll planets are in the sun's gravitational pull. If they were not, they would float away and they would probably never be seen again. That is why all of the planets revolve around the sun because the gravitational pull, pull's the planets around it. Inertia is the force that keeps the planets from being sucked into the sun and exploding.

Why do the planets circle the sun?
gravitational force
Why do giant planets have many more moons than terrestrial planets?
Gas giants are larger and there for have a stronger gravitational pull. When the solar system was forming, the larger planets with greater gravitational pulls collected more satellites and therefore have more moons.
Why are the planets considered satellites to the sun?
Because of gravity and all the pull (gravitational pull).
What are the different gravitational forces of the different planets?
Jupiter's gravitational pull is 24.9 m/s^2. The moon has a gravitational pull of 1.6 m/s^2.
Why is Jupiter important?
Jupiter affects other planets with its immense gravitational pull, a force to the pull of the sun
What is Newtons famous accomplishment?
Gravitational pull
What is the source of gravitational pull on the planets?
The gravitational pull on all the planets are artificial satellites because the satellites orbit all the planets!
Which four planets have a less gravitational force pull than earth?
Gravitational pull is less for Mercury, Venus, Mars and Uranus. And th eother planets have higher gravitational pull.
What does gravatational pull do?
Gravitational pull is so the planets keep orbiting around the sun because of its gravitational pull
Why do the planets circle the sun?
gravitational force
What is defined as weight?
Weight is a force that is measured in newtons (N). It is the force of the gravitational pull on you from the planet (or even moon) you are on. This is why your weight changes when going to different planets or to the moon.
What moves stars or planets?
By the gravitational pull
Does the sun have gravitional pull?
Yes, It has a strong gravitational pull. Without the gravitational pull, none of the planets would orbit it.
What other planets have a gravitational pull?
Not only planets but everything with mass, no matter how large or small, has a gravitational effect.
Why do the planets orbit the sun in a circle?
The gravitational pull.
What unit is used to express the pull of gravity?
Gravitational pull is a force and is measured in Newtons, the unit of force.
Why do giant planets have many more moons than terrestrial planets?
Gas giants are larger and there for have a stronger gravitational pull. When the solar system was forming, the larger planets with greater gravitational pulls collected more satellites and therefore have more moons.
