The gravitational force exerted by the Earth on an object is called ..................... (weight/mass)

The gravitational force exerted by the sun on the moon is greater than that exerted by the earth on the moon. Why then does not the moon escape from the earth.

Consider the following statements: 1. The gravitational force exerted by the sun on the moon is greater than the gravitational force exerted by the earth on the moon. 2. A heavy body falls at a faster rate than a light body in vaccum. Which of the following statements given above is/are correct?

The gravitational force exerted by the Sun on the Moon is about twice as great as the gravitational force exerted by the earth on the Moon, but still Moon is not escaping from the gravitational influence of the earth. Mark the option which correctly explains the above system.
