Explain how the gravitational force between the earth and the sun changes as the earth moves from position A to B as shown in the figure. Sun Earth at position B Earth at position A

Answer:
The distance between sun & Earth at position A is less than the earth at position B. The gravitational force of two bodies is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. So At position A gravitational force is more & it decreases as it rotate towards position B.
