The gravity of Earth, denoted g, refers to the acceleration that the Earth imparts to objects on or near its surface. In SI units this acceleration is measured in metres per second per second (in symbols, m/s2 or m·s-2) or equivalently in newtons per kilogram (N/kg or N·kg-1). It has an approximate value of 9.81 m/s2, which means that, ignoring the effects of air resistance, the speed of an object falling freely near the Earth's surface will increase by about 9.81 metres (about 32 ft) per second every second. This quantity is sometimes referred to informally as little g (in contrast, the gravitational constant G is referred to as big G).There is a direct relationship between gravitational acceleration and the downwards weight force experienced by objects on Earth, given by the equation F = ma (force = mass × acceleration). However, other factors such as the rotation of the Earth also contribute to the net acceleration.Although the precise strength of Earth's gravity varies depending on location, the nominal "average" value at the Earth's surface, known as standard gravity is, by definition, 9.80665 m/s2 (32.1740 ft/s2). This quantity is denoted variously as gn, ge (though this sometimes means the normal equatorial value on Earth, 9.78033 m/s2), g0, gee, or simply g (which is also used for the variable local value). The symbol g should not be confused with g, the abbreviation for gram (which is not italicized).

The gravitational pull between any two objects having mass M and m respectively, is described by the classic equation:

F=GMm/(r**2),

where G is the gravitational constant (independent of where in the universe one is) and r is the distance (center of mass to center of mass) between the two objects, in this case the distance between the moon's center of mass and that of the object being pulled by the moon.

In the case of the moon, M will be the moon's mass, m is the object's mass.

The gravitational force of Venus is 1 kg equals 0.88 kgs. So, slightly less than that of Earth's gravitational force.

Please ask your question again using a more unambiguous word. "Strong" is not at all clear when applied to the Sun.

Earth's gravitational pull is incredibly strong. Earth's gravitational pull is strong enough to hold many animals and Natural Resources down.

Would an object have a greater gravitational pull closer or farther from earth?

An object have greater gravitational pull closer from earth. As we get farther from earth, the gravitational pull becomes weaker. That is why objects sufficiently away from the earth do not fall on it.
