Problem 1E

What is the ratio of the sun’s gravitational force on you to the earth’s gravitational force on you?

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 1

Here we have to find the ratio between the two forces. One is between the sun and you and the other is between earth and you.

The force between the sun and you are,

\(F_{1}=\frac{M_{s u n} \times m}{R^{2}} \times G\).

\(F_{2}=\frac{M_{s a+h} \times m}{r^{2}} \times G\)
