The sun is more massive than the moon, but the sun is farther from the earth.? the sun is more massive than the moon, but the sun is farther from the earth. which one exerts a greater gravitational force on a person standing on the earth? give your answer by determining the ratio fsun/fmoon of the magnitudes of the gravitational forces.

Astudent is performing an experiment comparing sound and light waves. the student gathers the following data. what conclusion does the student most likely make based on this data? light waves always travel the same speed; however, the speed of sound is determined by the medium that it travels through. all sound waves always have the same energy, so the temperature of the medium does not affect wave speed. light needs to vibrate particles, so it travels fastest in tightly packed solids, while sound does not need a medium, so it travels fastest in a gas. tightly packed particles in solids slow down the light waves; however, sound waves make particles bounce into each other, so they travel faster in solids.
