M Mahyarl New member Mar 1, 2009 #1 ...jupiter and saturn are in one line? the Masses are Mv=0.815, Mj=318Me, Ms=95.1Me and their mean distances from the sun are 108,150, 778 and 1430 million Km i also need total force on the earth thank you very much

K KyleM Member Mar 1, 2009 #2 you also need to know the force from the sun. gravity force is equal to (G x mass earth x mass other object) / distance^2. to find the net force use: Fsun+Fvenus-Fjupiter-Fsaturn=NetForce (why is mars and our moon not included? they'd have a larger effect than Jupiter or Saturn)
