The gravitational attraction between the Earth and the Sun is a massive force. It's what keeps our planet in orbit around the Sun.

Here's how to calculate it:

* Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation: F = G * (m1 * m2) / r^2

* F = Force of gravity

* G = Gravitational constant (6.674 x 10^-11 N⋅m²/kg²)

* m1 = Mass of the Earth (5.972 x 10^24 kg)

* m2 = Mass of the Sun (1.989 x 10^30 kg)

* r = Average distance between Earth and Sun (1.496 x 10^11 m)

Plugging in the numbers:

F = (6.674 x 10^-11 N⋅m²/kg²) * (5.972 x 10^24 kg) * (1.989 x 10^30 kg) / (1.496 x 10^11 m)^2

The result is approximately 3.52 x 10^22 Newtons.

Important note: This is just an average value. The actual gravitational force between Earth and Sun varies slightly throughout the year as Earth's orbit is not perfectly circular.
