Question

What is the attractive force that occurs between the sun and the earth called? friction magnetism weight gravity

Answer 1

Answer:

The attractive force that occurs between the sun and the earth called gravity.

Explanation:

Gravity : A force between two objects which attracts each other towards itself.It is mathematically directly linked to the product of masses of both object divided by the square of the distance parting the two objects.

$F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}$

F = Gravity or gravitational force

G = gravitational constant

m ,M = masses of objects

r = distanced between the objects

Where as friction is a force between the surfaces of two bodies , magnetism is the force that can attract or repel and weight is the force exerted by the earth's gravity on object to pull it towards the center of the earth.

Answer 2

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the last option. The attractive force that occurs between the sun and the earth is called gravity. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.
