Does the sun's rotation effect the gravitational pull for the surrounding planets?

Question

Is it the sun's rotation that makes the planets revolve around it?

Answer 1

The rotation of the Sun has nothing to do with its gravity.

According to Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation, the force of gravity is proportional to the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them: F=G m1 m2 / r^2. The rotation doesn't enter into it.

The pull of the Sun's gravity on the planets is what keeps them in orbit, just like the pull of the string is what keeps a tennis ball in orbit around your hand when you swing it over your head. If the Sun's gravitational pull weren't there, the planets would fly away in straight lines at constant speeds, according to Newton's First Law of motion: "A body in motion remains in motion with constant speed and direction unless acted apon by an outside force."

Answer 2

Gravity is a spherically symmetric force, and by itself can't produce any torques. The mutual gravitational attraction between the sun and planets will actually cause the sun to wobble on its axis but not a significant amount (like 6 feet). Think of you winging a heavy object attached to a string and spinning in a circle. You can feel this wobble when you go faster and faster.

Answer 3

The planets revolved relative to the Sun's barry center.
However this barry center is not static its dynamic due to the number of planets and celestial bodies revolving.To this barry center moves on a thee dimensional trajectory.
The Sun does not pull anything.Planets are Held in orbit due to a gravitational push on the planets relative to the Sun and other celestial bodies.

Answer 4

If the sun stopped spinning tomorrow, it's mass would remain the same and have the same gravitational effect

Answer 5

no , it do not.
