8 .On the other hand, on the moon there will be an attraction between the butter and the moon; but the butter will weigh only about one-sixth as much as it does on the earth. This is because the moon is so much smaller than the earth. The amount of gravitational pull that a body produces depends on the amount of material in it. A packet of butter has a gravitational pull of its own; but this is very small in relation to the pull of something as large as the moon, or the earth, or the sun.We do not feel the gravitational pull of a packet of butter because
A it is too small to have a gravitational pull of its own. B its pull is so small that we tend to ignore it. C its pull disappears in the presence of the earth’s gravitation. D it tends to melt and loses its gravitational pull.
