A student is calculating the gravitational force between the Earth and the sun. She knows that mass of the Earth is 5.972 * 10 ^ 24 kg, the mass of the sun is 1.989 * 10 ^ 30 kg, and the distance between the Earth and the sun is 1.496x * 10 ^ 12 meters. What piece of information is she missing to be able to find the gravitational force? (1 point)

O the direction of the force between the Earth and the sun
O the gravitational constant, G
O how much heavier the sun is compared to the Earth
O how long it takes for the Earth to revolve around the sun

The student is missing the gravitational constant, G, in order to calculate the gravitational force.

The student is missing the value of the gravitational constant, G, to be able to find the gravitational force between the Earth and the sun.
