What would happen to the orbit of the Earth if the gravitational force from the Sun suddenly stopped?
weight
The Moon is closer to Earth than the Sun
Sun
The Earth would continue to move in a straight line due to it's inertia
The property of matter that resists a change in motion
crash into the Sun
Newton
the moon is much less massive than the Earth
