The Earth's gravity keeps us from flying out to space. How can you explain that we have a stronger gravitational attraction to the Earth than to the Sun?
Question options:
The sun is bigger, but has a less mass than the Earth.
The sun has a larger mass so it has less gravitational pull.
This is because, since we are closer to the Earth, the Earth will have a stronger gravitational pull on us since again, we are closer. That also explains tides, but that's just getting off topic. Hope I helped.
