Which of the following affects Earth’s gravitational pull?
A
Earth’s Mass
B
The atmosphere
C
Average temperature
D
Amount of liquid water present
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Gravity is measured as how fast objects accelerate towards each other. The average gravitational pull of the Earth is 9.8 meters per second squared (m/s2). The Earth is made of different substances like air, rock, and water. These substances have a different amount of mass in a certain amount of space (density).

Detailed explanation-2: -Since the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, more massive objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. So as the mass of either object increases, the force of gravitational attraction between them also increases.

Detailed explanation-3: -Gravitational force is an attraction between masses. The greater the size of the masses, the greater the size of the gravitational force (also called the gravity force). The gravitational force weakens rapidly with increasing distance between masses.
